When Amazon echo came out, all the flaws of voice assistant were visible and it looked like a glorified kitchen timer but it's surprising how little they improved over the years. Nonetheless Google executives rushed to copy Alexa.
At the same time the same executives did not incorporate LLMs into the Assistant when Google invented the tech.
These layoffs should've fired all those dead-weight executives and the CEO for good measure yet we see the rank and file losing their job
- jinushaun 3y agoThat’s why I find the big tech pivot to AI so frustrating. There’s more to AI than LLM and Google and others had all the time in the world to make that. It took someone like OpenAI to show them the error of their ways. Reminds me of legacy mobile phone makers when the iPhone launched.
