I think this what the demo's with sources do. But they might still run into the same problem - the LLM summarization might be a bit wrong and so now it is saying one thing and the source has a slightly different opinion.

This does look interesting but as other comments have pointed out without data or weights it's not clear how well this works. The training notebook seems to suggest it is not actually improving all that much on the training data

With a budget of 8.5M Eur/Usd. Alphabet spends 200B per year. If 40% of that is spend on search, their budget is 10 thousand times larger.

Yep I did. I thought this was about some new network architecture that needed loads of RAM but also produced, I guess, weird results

This seems overly focussed on the best selling phones rather than really the evolution of Camera Phones. The HTC One M8 was I think the first camera to use multiple lenses for depth and different zoom. The first Pixel might not have been al

I am looking forward to the day computers are better at coming up with things humans can do better than computers than humans. We used to argue that face recognition and the ability to play go were the hallmark of true intelligence. Meanwhi

Not very realistic I have to say. Who is going to take a 5 dollar bet serious in 2061?

The Germans requiring everything on paper with people witnessing signatures is of course rather silly, but whether it takes 3 weeks to form a company or 3 days is ultimately not going to be a real difference. I think the thing here is more

More information on the exact ad campaign run would make it easier to understand all this. Who where they targeting? What was the max cost per impression? You might not like Yahoo! or Foxnews but surely if your ad campaign is such that Goog

Agreed! But that's not really the point the article is trying to make. Once you know DALL-E, it is pretty easy to see which are DALL-E and which are not. Just like you get to know an artist. But in 10 years, if we have 100 DALL-E like

This reminds of people in the olden days saying that computers can't actually play chess. It's just a well trained excel spreadsheet. But they don't actually play the game. The article doesn't mention the Turing test. Is

It's a bit suspicious that the article doesn't actually mention how much power the system uses. The processor it powers doesn't need very much at all, so it makes one wonder

Also: they are running Google Cloud at a loss which at some level means that they are selling compute below costs which would suggest that Google could be paying more.

I don't know. If you live your self repeating life and weeks become months and months become years and then you go to say Korea for half a year and make new friends and pick up new routines and eat new foods and then you go back to you

Not sure if the article misses the point then. If Google satisfies your "digital morons" by making it slightly harder for the more advanced users to get the results they want, couldn't that be the right thing to do? For examp

I'm confused about the calculation. They say we are approaching 2T a year on military spending. Over 5 years that's 10T. 2% of that is 200B - a fair sum, but no the 1T advertised. What am I missing?

This does feel like there's some selection bias here. The assumption is that intelligence hasn't developed before humans. If a planet wide civilization would have sprung up say with the dinosaurs, would we have gotten a shot? It s

Strikes me as almost the definition of survival bias; the species that survived have these properties and therefore survived. We don't know that much about the species that didn't but let's assume they didn't have those
