A major fire wreaked havoc at the Vishakhapatnam harbour, engulfing at least 25 fishing boats. Despite efforts by multiple fire engines, an Indian Navy vessel had to be deployed to bring the blaze under control. The estimated loss from this incident, where each boat cost nearly ₹15 lakh ($18K) stands within the range of ₹4-5 crores (around half a million dollars).

The fire originated late at night on a fishing boat, prompting authorities to detach and set it adrift to prevent the flames from spreading. Winds and water currents led the boat back to the jetty, igniting adjacent vessels.

The presence of diesel containers and gas cylinders on the boats exacerbated the inferno, resulting in the destruction of the entire jetty area.

A recent Meta GWI Beauty Report for 2023 has uncovered the dominance of Instagram Reels in shaping beauty purchases in India.

It was revealed that over 80 per cent consumers prefer buying beauty products online, with Meta’s Facebook and Instagram leading beauty product searches. 47 per cent of consumers discovered beauty products through Reels, resulting in one in three beauty consumers making purchases directly through Instagram Reels.

The report surveyed over 2,000 consumers aged 6-64 across 74 cities in June, and brought out the transformation in consumer behaviour in the beauty and personal care categories. The influence of online marketplaces, coupled with the emergence of new brands has fuelled the demand for beauty products, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The shift towards online purchases is significant, with 68 per cent of beauty buyers now preferring online transactions, marking a 15 per cent increase from pre-pandemic levels.

A Mint report cited Meghna Apparao, Director for Ecommerce and Retail for Meta in India, who emphasised the rapid growth of both beauty and fashion verticals on Meta platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. She highlighted the transformative impact of social media on the purchase experience, creating a pressing need for brands and marketers to engage with consumers differently, especially during festive and upcoming wedding seasons. Meta's reach is staggering, with around 3.14 billion people using at least one Meta app daily in September.

Bite-sized content on social media has become a powerful tool in influencing purchasing decisions globally, transforming the retail landscape. Additionally, the study highlights the growing interest in content created by influencers.

Instagram reels reshape beauty, fashion shopping landscape in India: Meta GWI Beauty Report

Mira Murati was briefly&nbsp;appointed as the interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of OpenAI soon after its co-founder Sam Altman was ousted from the company behind Artificial Intelligence-powered chatbot ChatGPT.

Murati was working as the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at OpenAI but after Sam Altman was fired from his position as CEO on November 18, she&nbsp;was appointed as the interim CEO.&nbsp;

Murati was born in San Francisco in 1988, and was raised in America.

Previously, she held the position of senior product manager at Tesla, after having received her Bachelor of Engineering degree from The Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth.

Mira also served as OpenAI's SVP of Research, Product, and Partnerships.

Earlier, in an interview with Time magazine, she expressed her concerns over the misuse of Artificial Intelligence.&nbsp;"AI can be misused, or it can be used by bad actors. So, then there are questions about how you govern the use of this technology globally. How do you govern the use of AI in a way that’s aligned with human values?," Mira Murati told the magazine.&nbsp;

She also stressed that the company (OpenAI) will need help from different sources, including governments, regulators, and everyone else.&nbsp;

“But we're a small group of people and we need a tonne more inputs in this system and a lot more input that goes beyond the technologies—definitely regulators and governments and everyone else," Murati noted.&nbsp;

<h2>Is Mira Murati Indian?</h2>

Contrary to several reports in sections of media, Mira Murati is not Indian. She was born in Albania to Albanian parents, and&nbsp;educated in Canada.&nbsp;

Murati is a mechanical engineer by training who built a hybrid race car as an undergraduate student at Dartmouth College. Before joining&nbsp;OpenAI in 2018, she had&nbsp;worked at Tesla, where she played a key role in the development of the Model X car, and Leap Motion, a startup that developed a computing system to track hand and finger motions.&nbsp;

Murati said that her work at Tesla exposed her to AI and inspired her to look for a job in that field. OpenAI hired her as its vice president of applied AI and partnerships.&nbsp;

<h2>What is ChatGPT?</h2>

The AI chatbot ChatGPT was created by San Francisco-based OpenAI, a startup that does AI research. The application&nbsp;was made available in November 2022. It is able to converse about anything from history to philosophy, produce lyrics, and provide changes to computer programme code.

It is trained on a sizable collection of articles, websites, and social media postings in addition to real-time talks, mostly in English, with human contractors employed by OpenAI. It picks up on the writing's syntax and organisation and learns to reflect commonly used expressions. The chatbot's correctness isn't always reliable because its sources aren't fact-checked and it depends on user input to get better.&nbsp;
