🚀 Major updates from ChatGPT, Mistral, and Lindy

A few new powerful features you might have missed...

January 20, 2025

Hey there.

Every day we see announcements for new AI tools and platforms… and many of them look great.

But the developments that are likely to change the way you work often come from the continuous evolution of existing tools.

Inside The Rundown AI University we track these updates obsessively - then turn each breakthrough into practical lessons you can learn from immediately.

Staying up-to-date with existing tools is just as valuable as discovering new ones.

Here’s what you can now do (that you couldn’t do a week ago):

Get automated daily updates on any topic

ChatGPT's Tasks feature is a solid step towards the world of AI agents. Instead of manually prompting for updates, you can now request and receive tailored briefings that combine real-time news analysis with your specific context and interests.

This marks a fundamental shift in how AI tools serve us. By maintaining context and understanding your industry focus, these briefings can become more precise and relevant over time. Whether you're tracking market trends, following industry developments, or monitoring global events, your Tasks adapt to provide exactly what matters to you.

This update includes:

  • Scheduled delivery of personalized news summaries

  • Industry-specific insight filtering

  • Alerts delivered to your inbox

  • Improved results from your feedback and interests

Upgrade to AI-powered code at no cost

Mistral AI's Codestral removes one of the main barriers for AI-assisted code. With the ability to reference over 150,000 words and understand 80+ programming languages, it's a comprehensive development assistant that understands your entire codebase.

Codestral outperforms other models of similar size meaning you can get more accurate suggestions, and significantly reduced debugging times, without paying a cent or sacrificing code quality.

This update can:

  • Process and understand massive codebases

  • Provide context-aware code recommendations

  • Debug complex issues across multiple files

  • Maintain consistent coding patterns throughout projects

Build an autonomous meeting system

Lindy AI allows you to automate one of the most time-consuming aspects of professional life by connecting with your calendar and communication tools to create a seamless system that handles the entire meeting lifecycle - from preparation to follow-up.

What makes this particularly powerful is its ability to understand meeting context from multiple sources. It analyzes past communications, connects relevant documents, and creates focused briefings that ensure every meeting starts with clear context and ends with actionable outcomes.

This is one of the best examples of repeatable work that AI can help to streamline.

And, this Tuesday at 2:15 PM EST, we’re inviting you to an exclusive workshop with Lindy's founder and CEO, Flo Crivello.

Join us to learn how to:

  • Connect Lindy, calendars, and collaboration apps to streamline meeting preparation workflows

  • Build workflows to automatically gather documents, summarize past communications, and generate tailored agendas

  • Adapt workflows for different meeting types, participants, and goals to maximize efficiency and relevance

  • Access a discounted offer that’s exclusive to University members 👀

It’s clear that some of the most meaningful opportunities for progress come from deepening our mastery of existing tools, instead of constantly switching to new ones.

That's why The Rundown AI University focuses on helping our members extract maximum value from the tools they already use.

Every week, we share practical tutorials and workflows that keep you ahead of these developments.

Stay curious,
