I think that google thinks that it's not worth it. They could believe that videos don't have as much relevant information as text. Or if videos do have more information, it's not worth it to try to spend so much compute for i

Thanks a lot for the reply. 1. I couldn't agree more. The only issue is transcribing the video. Everything else can be done for hour long videos. I was thinking about pushing transcribing on the user's browser, if possible. 2. Goo

sorry about that. Should work now. Was facing some compute issues.

The github repo has > 3k stars so does the person still have an incentive to plug their solution everywhere?

I am calculating vector embeddings on 60 sec intervals with 30 sec overlap window. So overall, I only get 20-30 embeddings for a video. So a linear lookup works fine.

Considering that such a huge amount of information exists in videos compared to texts, I think that we are missing out on all that information from our current search engines. I hope that this can be used to bridge that gap.

I noticed you are using pbkdf2 to convert password to key. It's recommended to use ARGON2 nowadays. From some googling, pbkdf2 increases CPU usage to make brute force harder, scrypt increases memory usage to make brute force harder. AR

I thought google's captcha (the tick captcha) used mouse and keyboard movements to detect humans. If a bot is using the web, their mouse movements must be either zero or very precise. So an erratic movement can be a signal of human use

does that help you? Yes, thanks! Do you think I should add Youtube? No, you are right, youtube is very popular. As for the circles, honestly, I don't know. Since nobody else mentioned it, it could be that only I have that problem. And

Is there any way to get google cards? Google's cards are so useful because they answer 80% of queries without the user having to go into the website (which usually takes 2-3 seconds + ads) But I understand if google doesn't want t

As a picky user, I would like to have the option to remove a box of any website. E.g. I don't like youtube thumbnails (and don't think of youtube as a good resource), so it would be nice to have the option to remove it. As for imp

It's very good (will definitely consider moving). Some user feedback: 1) Dark Mode please 2) Toggleable websites; I saw that the websites I was seeing were black-circles in the panel below the search box. I instinctively tried to click

Fascinating. I wonder if this much funding will change the incentives to not release models in the future. (A lot of proprietary companies started with the open source promise) Although this might incentivize more people to create open sour

Can you link to the hundred-page document? I believe you are talking about prompt engineering, and I would love to get more information about it. I am struggling with figuring out good prompts.

Not trying to throw ML at the wall, but could it be used for this problem (considering all other options seem to be failing)? As far as I understand, after MV3, ad blockers won't be able to use a long list of ads to remove them. How ab

This seems to be a very big fine ($4.12B), much bigger than any "cost of business" I can think of. What are the chances that google will actually have to pay it? They could re-appeal [0] or play some other judicial trick. Or maybe

As pointed out by user "space_fountain" below, this test was done by a competitor and may not be using autopilot or self-driving beta. My apologies. I should have pointed that out in the title.

Out of curiosity, how does someone possibly get 100k+ IP addresses? I had enough trouble getting 1 public IP address.

Why is talking to all authoritative servers so hard? As long as you cover all the cases such as CNAMES and have the IPs of the roots, you seem to be good to go.

To further support your point, AI is 90% efficient/good at driving. But the last 10% is so hard that some think it's impossible to have 100% self-driving cars.

Interesting point. I guess one way to avoid that could be making them believe that you are on their (govts) side? Intentionally click on pro-govt websites, etc. If there is a conflict and you don't know who will come out on top, either

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. There was another tool called something like "noisify". It intentionally visited random websites or clicked on random links to trip up any algorithm tracking you. That idea was fascinating.
