I’m with the other person on this one. The question is stupidly vague. Whereas “ever” isn’t very productive, neither is “live up to its hype” - that could mean anything, depending on whoms hype you follow.
All in all, this feels live a clickbait circlejerk article.
GPT-4o (“o” for “omni”) is a step towards much more natural human-computer interaction—it accepts as input any combination of text, audio, and image and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs. It can respond to audio inputs in as little as 232 milliseconds, with an average of 320 milliseconds,...
The reason: Apple will charge a 27% fee to developers who want to use the link entitlement program — and when combined with payment processing fees, the total is even more than the 30% the App Store has taken for itself for years, the judge was told at the hearing in Oakland, California.
The fediverse won’t succeed at putting up a #Stackoverflow substitute and that’s a problem?
Just an impression: All the pieces seem to be there. But what’s required is a team, with devs, PMs and coordinators, dedicated to making a particular place in the #fediverse .
That’s resources and decently sized financial and organisational demands, especially to get a critical mass of users.
Is the fediverse up to that challenge? If not, is it an issue worth addressing?
I bought one last year, and even though I was hesitant because of its age, it can handle all the content I throw at it (4k 10 bit hdr h265, etc). As for the the ads, I solved that by installing a third party launcher.
The only issue I have with this setup is that I haven’t found a good replacement for YouTube yet. A revanced for android TV would be amazing.
C’mon. We both know the only reason this gets posted here is because the community has a rage boner for Musk. I’ll agree with you this is business news, and there’s a wonderful sticky about that on the top of this community. I think this counts as much as “tech news” as a workers strike at Samsung’s smart refrigerator department over their retirement plans.
Are you saying Google is herding their users to the new product of their competitors? I honestly don’t understand what point you’re trying to make here.
On a only slightly related note: When I worked on a helpdesk many years ago, at the end of my shift at night, I’d use that same technique to call my own cellphone, as well as my girlfriend’s, connect the two, and have hour long conversations for free.
On the other hand, if we move from larger and larger models with as much data they can gather to less generic and more specific high quality datasets, I have a feeling there’s still a lot to gain. But quality over quantity takes a lot more effort to maintain.
This is not whataboutism - it’s looking at the bigger picture. The point is that you should want to prevent all mass surveillance by social media companies. Not force them to sell so that the government can get its greedy paws on the data.
I’d be surprised if OpenAI wasn’t already using that data to train with (that is: questions and accepted answers of a high enough threshold). But at least now SO (not the actual users who create the value) is being compensated for it.
