my dog jumped into the air to catch something but not like super high. with google ai i can photoshop it to make the jump look higher then send it to my friends. i’m normal this is a normal thing to do.
i saw a fashion influencer post a video where they show off a cool new jacket. they proclaim “you’ll never find it!”, but with a google reverse image search i easily find it.
people are always making videos where they show off their fits but pointedly refuse to say where they got anything! it’s so common!
i’m making a cocktail and i have a little kitchen blowtorch but i don’t really know what role it plays in making a cocktail. i will take a picture of it and google the picture + “how to use”. this will assuredly work and give me relevant and useful information.
i think they’re all so odd bc they’re not like… high concept, inspirational ads. they’re simple ‘look what our product can do!’ ads. but seemingly produced by people lacking the most basic understanding of what people might use the product for?
one of them is a guy watching a streamer, and the streamer has a really cool headset. our hero would like to have the same headset. so he takes a picture of the streamer on his monitor, circles the headset, and the finds shopping results for it with google ai
wouldn't you just ask the streamer tho??? it would be easier, and also you would get to find out if they think it's actually good
@jacqueline depending on the size of their viewership it may just be impossible to get an answer from the streamer without donating to get an on-stream alert
@jacqueline And most streamers list that shit in their setup/gear list in their bio because they get asked aaaaallllllllll the time otherwise. How much lazier can we get?!
@jacqueline I see that a lot with robotics and iot. We literally have a robotics revolution now, because someone figured out that having your room vacuumed badly by a randomly moving noisy thing is something some people could find useful. It now spilled to lawn mowers and warehouse logistics, just like the steam engine spilled from pumping water in a coal mine to Jacquard looms once it became more polished. Finding that first use case where the thing is useful despite being very bad is hard.
@jacqueline It can become better if it finds its niche, but it's a rare thing, and it's hard to tell up front if it will happen or not.
Steam engines were bad initially. Electricity was very bad at first. Radio was ridiculously bad. Semiconductors were bad. Computers were embarrassingly bad and fiddly (no change there so far). Photography was pathetic.
On the other hand there are so many technologies that never found their niche. We don't eat radioactive chocolate anymore, or use lead makeup.
