This is a refreshing opinion, and also matches with my own experience. Many software engineers around me have now made the conclusion that AI will take their jobs and they're thinking changing careers already. I feel this is too early to tell. The prompts I write are all very technical, someone without my expertise would struggle with just an agent to talk to. Every time I do something outside my expertise, it is not as fast as one would imagine. Expertise do help tremendously and keep things in order

Frenchman here, living in Spain. This speaks to me on many levels. Bizum is so integrated in my daily life in Spain, that I wished my french friends had it when we need to transfer money between each other. Looks like we're going in that direction. Phenomenal

Most of the successes, especially online, is rarely about the thing that is built but more about the marketing around it. I don't we can fully automate marketing effectively

This is colossal. It can creates embeddings on pretty much any type of format, video, audio, documents. The context is still a bit small compared to what we are used to in text, but this seems major

I am no expert on the matter but I always thought ternery weight should be part of the neural net nature, trained on those, rather than a compression mesure for inference. Are they any training made on ternery weight models that are proven to be effective?

I switched a very long time ago when Gemini was released and it was a very easy switch at the time. I have never missed ChatGPT and due to current circumstances I'm kind of happy I made the switch. It woukd be a lot harder for me now to switch from Gemini (except for code of course)

You may pay to ChatGPT, but sooner or later you will become their product too. All the conversations you had or will have will be turned into signals to match you with products from advertisers, maybe not directly in the conversation with them, but anywhere else. It's not a mater of if, but looking at the pace things are going, and how financially pressured openai is, it's only a matter of time that their conversations with them will be turned into profit in some way or another, they basically have no choice financially.

Agreed, also worth pointing out that Google still owns 14% of Anthropic + Anthropic is signing billion dollar scale deals with Google Cloud to train their models on their TPUs. So Claude success indirectly contributes to Google success. The AI race is not only about the frontier models.

My experience with Antigravity is the opposite. It's the first time in over 10 years that an IDE has managed to take me out a bit out of the jetbrain suite. I did not think that was something possible as I am a hardcore jetbrain user/lover.

I'll agree to disagree. In any thread about a new model, I personally expect the pelican comment to be out there. It's informative, ritualistic and frankly fun. Your comment however, is a little harsh. Why mad?

Depending on how you look at it I suppose but I believe Gemini surpasses OpenAI on many levels now. Better photo and video models. The leaderboard for text and embeddings are also putting Google on top of Openai.
