Also, for many larger companies, access to internal data and systems is only granted to authorized human users and approved applications/agents. Each approval is a separate request.
This means for any "manual" or existing workflow requiring a access to several systems, that requires multiple IT permissions with defined scopes. Even something as simple as a sales rep sending a DocuSign might need:
- CRM access
- DocuSign access
- Possibly access to ERP (if CRM isn't configured to pass signed contract status and value across)
- Possibly access to SharePoint / Power Automate (if finance/legal/someone else has created internal policy or process, e.g. saving a DocuSign PDF to a folder, inputting details for handover to fulfilment or client success, or submitting ticket to finance so invoicing can be set up)
The absurd thing is that the amendment only covers smartphones and tablets - which means those who the bill aims to target can easily break the law by using a laptop, desktop, camera, smart TV etc.
In short, the Pandora's Box of automated surveillance and security risk on any smartphone or tablet is opened, while a gigantic loophole for serious offenders is left open.
Several ways, although I'm not sure whether the below will happen:
1. Paid ads - ChatGPT could offer paid listings at the top of its answers, just like Google does when it provides a results page. Not all people will necessarily leave Google/Gemini for future search queries, but some of the money that used to go to Google/Bing could now go to OpenAI.
2. Behavioral targeting based on past ChatGPT queries. If you have been asking about headache remedies, you might see ads for painkillers - both within ChatGPT and as display ads across the web.
3. Affiliate / commission revenue - if you've asked for product recommendations, at least some might be affiliate links.
The revenue from the above likely wouldn't cover all costs based on their current expenditure. But it would help a bit - particularly for monetizing free users.
Plus, I'm sure there will be new advertising models that emerge in time. If an advertiser could say "I can offer $30 per new customer" and let AI figure out how to get them and send a bill, that's very different to someone setting up an ad campaign - which involves everything from audience selection and creative, to bid management and conversion rate optimization.
Have you explored using speaker diarization and speaker identification, given that pyannote etc. takes this approach?
I'm curious given your decision to capture speaker names from the screen. I see the merits during desktop recording, but I can also see how this limits utility when trying to offer the same functionality across desktop and other scenarios (e.g. in-person meetings, audio uploads etc.)
