| The Rundown: AI image generator, Midjourney just rolled out its new "Panning" feature. Similar to their recently launched “Zoom out“ feature, it allows you to extend your images up, down, left, and right by clicking arrow keys. | Details: | Clicking an arrow extends your image in the corresponding direction The "/settings" command and selecting "Remix mode" allows you to change your prompt as you extend your image You can pan multiple times on the same image
| Current limitations: | No support for variations on panned images Resolution decreases when zooming out Inability to pan both horizontally and vertically Possible repetition when panning
| Our take: Another epic update from the highest-quality AI image generator in the market. It’s incredible how the Midjourney team continues to ship huge updates with a tiny team of 11 people. |

| The Rundown: A new Oxford Academic report details how data scientists are using AI to translate Cuneiform into English, one of the earliest writing systems in recorded human history. | Details: | AI developers are using NLP to translate cuneiform tablets from Akkadian into English The oldest surviving literary work, the Epic of Gilgamesh, was written in the Akkadian language using cuneiform script The researchers developed The Babylonian Engine, a website demonstrating their technology, starting with translations of the Akkadian language The training model for the Babylonian Engine AI, Akkademia, is open-sourced and viewable on the project's GitHub
| Why it matters: Understanding these writings using AI will provide a true picture of the past. Who knows what we’ll truly uncover. |
