It’s amusing how “ads” is seen as an obvious way to make profit for OAI as if Google’s (especially) and Meta’s ads businesses aren’t some of the most sophisticated machines on the planet. Three generations of Twitter leadership couldn’t mak

Literally the only thing people cared about was Audio Overviews. NotebookLM had launched months earlier without that feature and was immediately ignored. The reason people liked audio overviews was because the voice model was amazing. This

It’s not. The last “algorithm” release was a random grab bag of code which existed in some of the Twitter repo that might have been tangentially related to recommendations/feed. Source: worked at Twitter in ML/recsys.

Lets not pretend this is strategy. Amazon has been trying and failing to hire top AI people. No-one in their right minds would join. Even Meta has to shell out 8-9 figures for top people, who with any modicum of talent or self respect would

And yet Google is absolutely killing it and Meta is posting record numbers both attributing a massive amount of current and projected revenue to AI. Meta just spent billions to get a B team of AI researchers. The cream of the crop couldn’t

Yes this is gwern to a "T". Overwhelm with a r/iamverysmart screed whilst insidiously inserting baseless speculation and opinion as fact as if the references provided cover those too. Weirdly the scaling/AI community lov

MSL can already be written off as a failure. Zuck didn’t get the people he wanted despite literally offering billions. He then attached MSL to his other failed GenAI org which was already an astounding failure of leadership from the now tri

Yeah this is a bonkers take. AR is vaporware. The form factor sucks, the power requirements to do anything meaningful are too high and there just isn't a compelling use case for most of the population. I'd argue that Vision Pro ma
