[July 2024] Here's a summary of the key points covered several significant news stories on (AI) advancements and corporate movements. These points highlight the rapid advancements and ongoing challenges in the AI industry, reflecting both the potential and the risks associated with emerging technologies:

Apple's Involvement with OpenAI:
- Apple is reportedly getting a board observer seat on OpenAI's board without any financial investment, unlike Microsoft's significant investment to gain board presence.
- Phil Schiller, Apple's former marketing chief, has been chosen for the role.
- This move is surprising because Apple has been developing its own AI technologies and keeping OpenAI at a distance.
- Microsoft and Apple abandon board roles at OpenAI amid increasing regulatory scrutiny
Salesforce's AI Developments:

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff announced "Einstein Tiny Giant," a 1 billion parameter model that outperfor

	#### SETUP
	# 1.) Create a simple point layer
	curl -X POST -d '{"layer":"geom","lat":"lat","lon":"lon"}' --header "Content-Type:application/json" http://localhost:7474/db/data/ext/SpatialPlugin/graphdb/addSimplePointLayer

	# 2.) Add a spatial index
	curl -X POST -d '{"name":"geom","config":{"provider":"spatial","geometry_type":"point","lat":"lat","lon":"lon"}}' --header "Content-Type:application/json" http://localhost:7474/db/data/index/node/


	Recently, I was asked to pitch a method for providing recommendations. Luckily, armed with the knowledge obtained from talks from Max De Marzi and [Mark Needham](https://skillsmatter.com/skillscasts/7298-modelling-a-recommendation-engine-a-worked-example) at a recent Neo4j London Meetups, I knew this could be easily achieved with Neo4j.

	The key issue with recommendation engines comes from the data. Luckily, Neo4j comes bundled with the Northwind Graph Example. The Northwind database is an infamous dataset containing purchase history that has been used to teach relational databases for years and was a great place to start. You can import the Northwind database into a graph by following the ["Import Data into Neo4j"](http://neo4j.com/developer/guide-importing-data-and-etl/) post on Neo4j or type the following into Neo4j's browser at `http://localhost:7474/`

	Firstly, let's load in the data:
