Nah, I'll have to disagree with you there. I don't know about Siri, but I am one of those people using the Google Assistant to set timers and reminders, and for me at least, this is reliable (enough), and definitely faster than by

OpenAI is ahead at the moment, nobody's disputing that. But if anyone is able to challenge OpenAI's supremacy in that space, it's Google. And if LLMs will indeed be the revolution that some make them out to be, and Google is

Where can I read more about these expectations?

Accusing Google of missing out on LLMs is shortsighted, in my opinion. They were the ones who invented the entire LLM infrastructure, and they publicly released their own chat LLM just a few months after OpenAI. It's actually quite imp

To me, this just seems like a publicity stunt by the artist. Looking at the other images in the category [0], at least three of them are heavily edited. I see no reason why editing his image with AI-assisted tools should automatically disqu

That's a bit simplistic. Fiat currency "works" by being backed by a state, implying that the state will work to protect the fiat currency's value, be that through fiscally responsible governing and/or the use of for

Right, and FTX was valued at $32 billion at some point.

You know, that's not the sentiment I've been experiencing in the industry. There's certainly some uncertainty and risk-taking on the margins, e.g. what exactly constitutes "fair use", how do design user consent flow

Definitely. I think an AI for my friends would be relatively straightforward. It would just never reply.

There was a time around 2020 I believe, where everyone and their mother was talking about crypto and the blockchain, and how it's going to be this big technological revolution. All kinds of private and public initiatives decided to inc

Meta can't afford not to invest into generative AI. They are constantly fighting to stay relevant. Just see how TikTok's better recommender algorithm and content creation tools made Instagram play catch-up. I'm not certain

The Metaverse was always such a bad direction. At the time, I was really unsure about my intuition -- I figured that if Mark Zuckerberg decided it's worth pivoting his entire company towards that goal, he surely must have some data t

Not GP, but the bit about the author signing up for Doordash as a driver also made me think the post is fake. According to the post, the author lost her client on the day of making the post, and within that same day decided to sign up for

The frustrating thing is that companies will likely be getting away with stating falsehoods and/or not following through on what the AI claimed they'll do. Like how in the old days, if you sent a company a contract offer and they

I'd rather read a 0% accurate newspaper than an 80% accurate newspaper. At least with the 0% accurate one I can reliably get information about binary events such as presidential elections or ballgames by assuming the opposite of what w

The combination of gradient descent and transformers is a weird choice to ask founders about. One is an almost trivial algorithm, whereas the other is a cutting-edge research result.

Could you please point out to me the no-go zone(s) in Munich? I lived there for almost a decade and never found one of those. Or just any area within Munich where it would be unsafe to walk at night, thanks!

Correct, anti-trust law can introduce a lot of rules prohibiting actions that would be fine if it weren't for the monopolistic position of the actor. But as mentioned in the other comment, there's no differentiation there between

Right, but there is zero differentiation there between physical and virtual products. GP implied that there is some sort of protection against price dumping of physical products that doesn't exist for virtual products.

Or Kansas (can-zuhs) vs. Arkansas (ar-kin-saw).

I agree with the sentiment, but it's not correct that price dumping is illegal for physical products. Trade treaties and WTO rules cover dumping in international trade for obvious reasons, but to my knowledge, there's no law in

George Hotz is a great hacker and problem solver, but I greatly doubt he has the patience to actually build a product. This is a fantastic skill set to solo-hack a complicated piece of software and produce a proof-of-concept, but not for bu
