It’s the same reason why they removed the headphone jacks from phones. They don’t want to give you a better product, they want you to force youbto use a product, even if it’s worse in all aspects
Comment on Google is going ‘all in’ on AI. It’s part of a troubling trend in big tech
echodot@feddit.uk 10 months agoI find this current timeline so confusing. Supposedly we’re going to have AGI soon, and yet Google’s AI keeps telling you to stick glue on pizza. How can both things be true?

Whoa don’t come for Bluetooth like that. I like not having tangled wires and janky earbuds/headphones, especially because my clumsy ass used to snap the cords all the time by accident.
I do agree though that we should get the choice to use headphone jack or bluetooth. I also miss having a jack since I have to use my charging port to connect to my car radio…

There are some outlandish rumours that it’s possible for a device to have… both Bluetooth and a headphone jack.

My previous phone was like that. And had a better DAC that some of the cheaper converters.

Impossible! It’s never been done!

I assume it’s big tech that has this weird ai they try to sell while the scientists are using different ai for real useful stuff, like the protein something I heard. Or at least that’s what I’d like to believe.

A whole lot of useful stuff that wasn’t publicly labelled AI got relabeled to take advantage of funding opportunities. That doesn’t mean it is related to generative AI like LLMs and image generators though.

Google just released a video generator that is a ball hair away from perfection. The hallucination rate from their latest models is <1% and dropping you just see cherry picked screenshots.

The physics and perspective are still horrible, every video makes me want to vomit my brain

Only sometimes, with enough generations you can already make indistinguishable videos for the most part. You’re seeing these mistakes because it’s amateurs spending $100 not professionals spending $10k

I was referring to the demos shown at I/O, my brain seems to see them all as “flat”, it’s like a reverse magic eye thing. It reminds me of the uncomfortableness of a fever dream. I may be the exception tbf!

I don’t think image generators are really in the same category though. They’ll have their applications but they’re not going to be a fundamental change to society the way AGI will be.

It’s part of AGI and will be a massive shift. They are to video what punk was to music.

Agi and image diffusion has literally nothing in common though?
