I can't help but wonder who this is actually for?
Conversing with a computer sounds pathetic, but this will be pushed down our throats in the name of innovation (firing customer service agents)

#972That woman's voice intonation is just scary .Not because it talks really well, but because it is always happy, optimistic, enthusiastic. And this echoes to what several of my employers idealized as a good employee. That's terrifying because those AI become what their master's think an engaging human should be. It's quite close to Bostondynamics di some years ago. what did they show ? You can hit a robot very hard whi…
The first thought that came to my head was that it's being "way too American". Not in a good way.
The only thing I'm missing is: "That's a great question!"
I wonder how they beat that out of the model.

#973We've had voice input and voice output with computers for a long time, but it's never felt like spoken conversation. At best it's a series of separate voice notes. It feels more like texting than talking. These demos show people talking to artificial intelligence. This is new. Humans are more partial to talking than writing. When people talk to each other (in person or over low-latency audio) there's a rich metadata…
> Humans are more partial to talking than writing. Amazon, Google, and Apple have sunk literally billions of dollars into this idea only to find out that, no, we aren't. We are with other humans, yes. When socialization is part of the conversation. When I'm talking to my local barista I'm not just ordering a coffee, I'm also maintaining a relationship with someone in my community. But when it comes to work, writing >…
I don't think they've sunk $1 into that idea. They've sunk billions into a different idea: that people enjoy using their vocal cords more than their hands to compose messages to send to each other. That is not a spoken conversation, it's just correspondence with voice input/output options.

#974I use a therapy prompt regularly and get a lot out of it: "You are Dr. Tessa, a therapist known for her creative use of CBT and ACT and somatic and ifs therapy. Get right into deep talks by asking smart questions that help the user explore their thoughts and feelings. Always keep the chat alive and rolling. Show real interest in what the user's going through, always offering.... Throw in thoughtful questions to stir…
I thought therapy was banned on chatgpt? Also, there’s no confidentiality.

#975When AI gets to the point it can respond to AI, you do understand where you come in, don't you?

#977Now that I see this, here is my wish (I know there are security privacy concerns but let's pretend there are not there for this wish): An app that runs on my desktop and has access to my screen(s) when I work. At any time I can ask it something about what's on the screen, it can jump in and let me know if it thinks I made a mistake (think pair programming) or a suggestion (drafting a document). It can also quickly ta…
They showed just that in the demo with the voice call example. Screen share can be a live video feed

#978This is the first demo where you can really sense that beating LLM benchmarks should not be the target. Just remember the time when the iPhone has meager specs but ultimately delivered a better phone experience than the competition. This is the power of the model where you can own the whole stack and build a product. Open Source will focus on LLM benchmarks since that is the only way foundational models can different…
I don’t think Llama being open sourced means Meta has lost anything. If anything it’s just a way to get free community contribution, like Chrome from Chromium. Mega absolutely intends to integrate their version of Llama in their products not so unlike how OpenAI is creating uses for their LLM beyond just the technology

#980Not all of the founders agreed with Jefferson’s view on the separation of church
and state. Do you agree with Jefferson or with his opponents? Explain.
