They're just flexing their engineering skills. Mass producing such a thin phone, where most of the non battery internals are housed in the camera bump can translate to meaningful products

Like wearables, glasses, etc. The fact that they're mass producing this is key

The audio quality is amazing. It's transformer based. I use it occasionally

Chirp (HD) gives you $30 per 1M characters for free on the free tier also
kvn8888··on OpenAI O3 breakthrough high score on ARC-AGI-PUB
That would be a ton of problems for a small team of PhD/Grad level experts to solve (for GPQA Diamond, etc) in a short time. Remember, on EpochAl Frontier Math, these problems require hours to days worth of reasoning by humans

The author also suggested this is a new architecture that uses existing methods, like a Monte Carlo tree search that deepmind is investigating (they use this method for AlphaZero)

I don't see the point of colluding for this sort of fraud, as these methods like tree search and pruning already exist. And other labs could genuinely produce these results

kvn8888··on New Gemini model significantly outperforms others on Chatbot Arena (LMSYS)
It shows the context length on the AI Studio site

2 million for gemini-exp-1206 32k for the other experimental gemini. I think gemini-exp-1121

kvn8888··on GitHub cuts AI deals with Google, Anthropic
GitHub actually uses AWS quite frequently

They act very independently from Microsoft

kvn8888··on GitHub cuts AI deals with Google, Anthropic
I think it’s unlimited for Claude

But I wonder who’s paying for it? I haven’t heard anything about GitHub paying discounted prices for AWS Bedrock. Or if Anthropic gets a cut

kvn8888··on Pushing the frontiers of audio generation
I use the wavenet extension and use my 1M character free quota from Google cloud
kvn8888··on Pushing the frontiers of audio generation
It’s amazing for reading articles
kvn8888··on Microsoft just delayed Recall again
Microsoft is notorious for resetting user permissions randomly. Like after updates

Options turn themselves on for some reason, historically speaking

kvn8888··on New models and developer products
I can't find anything that says it's available in ChatGPT
kvn8888··on ERNIE, China's ChatGPT, cracks under pressure
No, OP has it right, it's basic pattern recognition in LLMs.
kvn8888··on SoundStorm: Efficient Parallel Audio Generation
It's meant to sound artificial. The focus is on speed and consistency
kvn8888··on Texas professor fails entire class from graduating- claiming they used ChatGTP
Lots of hallucinations. ChatGPT will hallucinate that it wrote pieces of text. Even GPTZero will detect the constitution as AI generated
kvn8888··on Samsung considers moving to Bing as default search engine
No, backup and sync was rebranded to Google drive for windows
kvn8888··on GPT-4 Is a Reasoning Engine
I'm guessing it doesn't understand the difference between what it knows, and what it doesn't know.
kvn8888··on The TikTok ban is a betrayal of the open internet
Yes. I've been delivered John Cena bing chilling memes with slightly racist undertones. I've seen memes about Tiananmen square. Winnie the pooh xi jinping memes.

And we're talking about TikTok content in America, not in Hong Kong.

kvn8888··on The TikTok ban is a betrayal of the open internet
Ban this, ban that. Lets ban everything I don't like! Lets ban the Statue of David even...

It's a slippery slope

kvn8888··on The TikTok ban is a betrayal of the open internet
OP is irrational here. You can find videos about 'Uyghur genocide' with that exact search term and countless of Tiananmen square videos.

Memes about Tiananmen square were popular on that platform. As well as videos critical of the CCP.

Anyone who claims otherwise clearly hasn't used Tiktok. And they'll shift goalposts to fit their narrative

kvn8888··on The TikTok ban is a betrayal of the open internet
What? China bans Facebook, Google, and Instagram because of censorship, not because they're "national security threats". And it will absolutely be motivated by money once Bytedance sells the platform.

A Chinese company sold Grinder because of privacy concerns. Tiktok will either IPO or be sold off

kvn8888··on I made ChatGPT and Bing AI have a conversation
How about Siri?
