Weekly Round Up | ChatGPT Tasks, Luma Labs’ Ray2, and Microsoft Copilot Chat

AI has truly become an essential part of daily life. ChatGPT now automates tasks, while tools like Luma Labs’ Ray2 enable the creation of stunning cinematic visuals. Meanwhile, Copilot Chat is making it easier for businesses to integrate AI into their workflows.
Whether you’re looking to streamline your day, unlock creativity, or explore smarter business tools, there’s plenty to discover!
Automate Your Day with Scheduled Tasks in ChatGPT

Imagine having an assistant that never forgets – whether it’s a daily AI news briefing, practicing French with you every morning, or reminding you about your mum’s birthday. Now, you can do all that and more with Scheduled Tasks in ChatGPT, currently in beta for Plus, Pro, and Team users.
How It Works
Setting up a task is as easy as clicking your profile icon and selecting Tasks. You can:
Choose a pre-made task or create one from scratch.
Use the "ChatGPT with Tasks" option to ask for reminders directly in chat.
Manage or edit tasks anytime through the Tasks page.
Tasks are capped at 10 active ones per user and use GPT-4, so your plan’s usage limits apply.

Luma Labs has introduced Ray2, a powerful video generation model designed to create ultra-realistic visuals with natural motion. Built on Luma’s advanced multi-modal architecture, Ray2 offers significant improvements in video quality and coherence.
