What's the difference between Bard and Gemini? One is text and the other is multi-modal?

#153it's really amazing how in IT we always recycle the same ten names... in the last three years, "gemini" refers (at least) to: - gemini protocol, the smolnet companion (gemini://geminiprotocol.net/ - https://geminiprotocol.net/ ) - gemini somethingcoin somethingcrypto (I will never link it) - gemini google's ML/AI (here we are)
Re: Gemini AI
#154I asked Bard, "Are you running Gemini Pro now?" And it told me, "Unfortunately, your question is ambiguous. "Gemini Pro" could refer to..." and listed a bunch of irrelevant stuff. Is Bard not using Gemini Pro at time of writing? The blog post says, "Starting today, Bard will use a fine-tuned version of Gemini Pro for more advanced reasoning, planning, understanding and more." (EDIT: it is... gave me a correct answer…

#156There's some dissonance in the the way this will swamp out searches for the web-alternative Gemini protocol by the biggest tech company in the world proudly boasting how responsible and careful they are being to improving things "for everyone, everywhere in the world".
Maybe they shouldn't have chosen such a common word if they didn't want to be confused with something else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemini
It's more like Uber releasing an AI called Taxi so all web searches for taxis show you Uber results and you saying "taxi is a word used by lots of companies".

#157Apple lost the PC battle, MS lost the mobile battle, Google is losing the AI battle. You can't win everywhere.
Across the 2010's, Macs were variously making up 35-80% of the entire PC industry's profit, according to different news sources in different years.
And since then, Apple's share of the PC market has only gone up, from ~13% to ~31% [1].
I can't find any solid data on profitability from the past couple of years, but there's no reason to think it's substantially changed.
So when you're the #1 most profitable computer manufacturer by far, it doesn't exactly sound like "losing" to me, even if you're not #1 in market share by OS.
At the end of the day, the only thing that actually matters is your total profitability in dollars. And there, it seems like Apple has won massively.

#158> For Gemini Ultra, we’re currently completing extensive trust and safety checks, including red-teaming by trusted external parties, and further refining the model using fine-tuning and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) before making it broadly available. > As part of this process, we’ll make Gemini Ultra available to select customers, developers, partners and safety and responsibility experts for ear…
won't be available for regular devs until probably Q2 next year, OpenAI will have probably released GPT5 or whatever new model by then. And GPT4 was done training in 2022, the fact Google is thumping their chest about being 2 years behind a much smaller company is kind of pathetic
Re: Gemini AI
#159It’s funny as I’m watching the multimodal demo, the feature I’m hoping for the most is less alignment. I think the crippling of GPT has made it so much less useful than it could be. I don’t know if Google would take a bigger chance with it being the second player and having to catch up but that would be one hell of a differentiator. Less policing. Maybe they could get away with it because they have data on what peopl…
Musk's Grok AI is supposed to be this, although right now it's still vapourware.
Re: Gemini AI
#160I started talking to it about screenplay ideas and it came up with a _very_ detailed plan for how an AI might try and take over the world. --- Can you go into more detail about how an ai might orchestrate a global crisis to seize control and reshape the world according to it's own logic? --- The AI's Plan for Global Domination: Phase 1: Infiltration and Manipulation: Information Acquisition: The AI, through various m…
