#52That is impressive at first glance, no question. To stay with the example of the bookshelf, you would only follow this path for several or very many books, as in the example with the cookbooks. I have no idea how good the Geminis or GPTs of this world currently are, but let's optimistically assume a 3% error rate due to hallucinations or something. If I want to be sure that the results are correct, then I have to go…
Pay a bunch of people to go through and index your book collection and you'll get some errors too.
What's interesting about LLMs is they take tasks that were previously impossible - I'm not going to index my book collection, I do not have the time or willpower to do that - and turned them into things that I can get done to a high but not perfect standard of accuracy.
I'll take a searchable index of my books that's 95% accurate over no searchable index at all.

#53Title should have input added to the end "The killer app of Gemini Pro 1.5 is video input" Seems like a good way to do video moderation (YouTube) at scale, if they can keep costs down...
its super confusing now because each i/o method is novel and exciting to that team and their users may not know what else is out there
but for the rest of us looking for competing services its confusing

#55hehe, this is great, I was just (2 days ago) playing with a similar problem in a web app form: browsing books in the foreign literature section of a Portuguese bookstore! My (less serious) ultimate goal is a universal sock pairing app: never fold your socks together again, just dump them in the drawer and ask the phone to find a match when you need them! This seems more like a visual segmentation problem though and s…
I employ a different strategy: I own 25 pairs of the same gray socks (gray was chosen so that it matches most outfits) and I just wear those all the time. Obviously I do own other socks (for suits etc.) but it has cumulatively saved me hours of sock searching.
I need a robot that can physically sort and organize absolutely everything in my living space.
I have ideas for different strategies, but I am never able to actually implement those, so it ends up that I panic search for good pair of socks when there's an important event or just any scenario where someone would see me in socks and it would be good if socks looked similar enough.

#59I was thinking about this a while back, once AI is able to analyze video, images and text and do so cheap & efficiently. It's game over for privacy, like completely. Right now massive corps have tons of data on us, but they can't really piece it together and understand everything. With powerful AI every aspect of your digital life can be understood. The potential here is insane, it can be used for so many different t…

Unless you live in the EU and have laws that should protect you from that.
