honestly - of all the AI hype demos and presentations recently - this is the first one that has really blown my mind. Something about the multimodal component of visual to audio just makes it feel realer. I would be VERY curious to see this live and in real time to see how similar it is to the video.
you haven't seen pika then.

There is no competitor to GPT-4 being released today. I…

> I've never seen GPT4 produce a link, other than when it's in web-browsing mode, which I find to be slower and less accurate. Really? I've been using gpt4 since about April and it used to very often create links for me. I'll tell it hey I want to find a company that does X in Y city and it generates 5 links for me, and at least one of them is usually real and not hallucinated
It's amazing to me how low the bar is for AI to impress people. Really, 80% of the links were hallucinated, and that's somehow more useful than Kagi for [checks notes] finding real links? Can you imagine if you did a search on Google and 80% of the results weren't even real websites? We'd all still be using AltaVista! What on earth kind of standard is "1/5 results actually exist!" -- no comment on whether the 1/5 rea…
If I don’t explicitly specify “site:xyz” I get pages of garbage spam sites with no answers.
Somehow ChatGPT seems easier to extract information from as I can just converse, test and repeat vs reading paragraphs of nonsense or skipping through a 14 minute YouTube video to get to incorrect or outdated answers.
As I get more proficient with ChatGPT, it becomes more useful. It has bad habits I can recognize and work around to get what I need. It just feels far more efficient than using a web search tool ever was.

Not just Europe: also no Canada, China, Russia, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Norway, Iceland, etc.

#655One observation: Sundar's comments in the main video seem like he's trying to communicate "we've been doing this ai stuff since you (other AI companies) were little babies" - to me this comes off kind of badly, like it's trying too hard to emphasize how long they've been doing AI (which is a weird look when the currently publicly available SOTA model is made by OpenAI, not Google). A better look would simply be to sh…
He's not wrong. DeepMind spends time solving big scientific / large-scale problems such as those in genetics, material science or weather forecasting, and Google has untouchable resources such as all the books they've scanned (and already won court cases about) They do make OpenAI look like kids in that regard. There is far more to technology than public facing goods/products. It's probably in part due to the cultura…
Nokia and Blackberry had far more phone-making experience than Apple when the iPhone launched.
But if you can't bring that experience to bear, allowing you to make a better product - then you don't have a better product.

I'm legitimately starting to wonder what white collar workers will even do in 5-10 years. This just Year 1 of this stuff going mainstream. Careers are 25-30 years long. What will someone entering the workforce today even be doing in 2035?
I'm wondering the same, but for the narrower white collar subset of tech workers, what will today's UX/UI designer or API developer be doing in 5-10 years.

Why do they gate access at country level if it's about language. I live in Europe and speak English just fine. Can't they just offer it in English only until the multi-language support is ready?
Litigation is probably inescapable. I'm sure they want to be on solid footing.
Re: Gemini AI
#660One of my biggest concerns with many of these benchmarks is that it’s really hard to tell if the test data has been part of the training data. There are terabytes of data fed into the training models - entire corpus of internet, proprietary books and papers, and likely other locked Google docs that only Google has access to. It is fairly easy to build models that achieve high scores in benchmarks if the test data has…
