Artificial Intelligence (Previously "Chat GPT")
-
@nostrildamus Mostly websites when it lists sources. Seems to lean on X more when working out context for recent events. Maybe voice is a staggered rollout..even grok can't tell me when I'm getting it
-
@Rembrandt Talking about itself seems to be a weak point for Grok - it tells me it can't generate images and immediately generates images.
-
@delicatessen That's weird, although to be fair on the image front is where I had my only real error. Started creating the images I wanted before randomly creating these specific images of a middle aged bloke with glasses. Happened a couple times so I asked it about it. Apparently the image it was creating was someone with my name that is on the internet. Very odd. Clearly still bugs to work out

Had a revealing answer from co-pilot (Microsoft's ai). Work has bought a license and we are only allowed to use co-pilot for AI. I'd finished work for the day and my daughter came into the study wanting me to print out something to colour-in. Thought it would be fun to convert an image we took of hear at a princess birthday party into a black and white sketch that she could colour in. Grok does this task easily. As I was on my work laptop I'd figure I'd give co-pilot a crack. The image was of my daughter and a childrens party entertainer both dressed up as princesses. I asked for the image to be converted to a black and white sketch that we could then print and colour in. The output was 4 photos, all in colour. 2 with Ai generated women in princess outfits..2 with AI generated men in princess costumes, 2 of the men bearded..seriously wtf? I can only assume DEI programming superseding logic. Absolute horror show.

@Rembrandt Copilot isn't developed for such use cases. It says that 'Unfortunately, I can't edit images or modify them into black-and-white sketches'.
-
@antipodean You're right, memory was a bit off. Prompt I used was 'Generate a cartoon of the image'.
-
@antipodean yeah tried using copilot to generate an image once and it was terrible, not one to use for that. Oddly I didn't decide it being shit was a political issue though.

Google should stick to search.

Google's AI came in on my phone to replace the existing "Google Assistant" in the last Samsung update. Initially I thought great, now I can get it to do more than the absolute basic tasks around the house.
My very first test was opening my garage door..turns out Gemini doesn't work with smart devices that require a pin..didn't even last a day before I had to revert to the dumb but 80% of the time usable assistant.

AI meaning "Actually Indians"
AI company files for bankruptcy after being exposed as 700 Indian engineers - Dexerto
An ambitious company that claimed to make apps using AI has been exposed as hundreds of human workers based in India.

I'm using two paid services at the moment, mainly to support work and keep up to date.
Cursor AI is pretty impressive. I've dismissive of a VS-Code fork compnay being worth billions, but then I tried it. The interface is excellent, and it's so damn helpful.
The other one is Grok. There is some really interesting happening with this implementation of the tech. It feels more consistent and helpful. The iteration on improvements must be making their competitors tear their hair out.
The 3.5 version is just around the corner, and the developers seem pretty pleased with themselves on X. They seem genuinely excited.
If anybody has some good MDC ules or resources they want to share, I'm all ears.
