You didn't watch the entire video did you.

about future AI data centers which would suck up 20-25% of the entire US power supply by 2030 - a 5x increase from today's 4%. If Google's Axion processor is 60% more efficient, this looks great.

If you watch the full clip, he’s talking about electromagnets breaking down on aircraft carriers, how much less reliable and more expensive they have been in practice to build and maintain than existing steam solutions based on real-world feedback from servicemen in the field. But if you let facts and reality get in the way of your self-serving political biases, you wouldn't have anything to support them, so you just do you!!

The video creation space is dominated by apps like Loom, Descript, and ClickUp. They have a loyal user base and tailored features. Vids feels like Google's half-assing it, trying to cash in on the video trend without bringing anything new.

Google's history is littered with big-name flops - remember Google+ and Wave? Those died a long slow death. I got a feeling Vids is headed the same way, no matter how much Google hypes it up. Unless it can seriously blow the competition away, it's gonna end up in the Google graveyard with all the other abandoned projects.

Honestly, I don't see any real reason to choose Vids over the more mature options out there. Google's got the resources to keep it afloat, but without a killer value prop, it's gonna struggle to gain traction. Just another example of Google throwing spaghetti at the wall.

Look, I've got to respectfully push back on the FCC's decision here. I know they're worried about causing a big disruption by adding broadband to the Universal Service Fund, but I think they're being way too cautious.Instead of just shutting the door completely on that idea, they could've taken a more measured approach. They could've delayed any action on broadband USF contributions for now, rather than outright forbearing from it. That would've kept the option open to revisit it later on.

Especially with that Affordable Connectivity Program set to expire soon, I think the FCC should be looking at other options to make sure people can still afford essential broadband service. Reforming the USF seems like it could be one way to do that, but now they've gone and closed off that path.

To me, it just feels short-sighted. By ruling this out entirely, they might be limiting their own options down the road. I think a more flexible, incremental approach would've been smarter. Broadband is a critical utility now, so we should be creative and adaptable in how we fund universal access and affordability. Hopefully the FCC will keep an open mind on this in the future.

Weird porn intro, but ok.

in the ad game. It's supposed to keep your browsing private while still slinging ads your way. But, here's the kicker: it boosts Google's grip on ads, leaving the little guys out in the cold. And for all its talk about privacy, there are holes you could drive a truck through. So, while it sounds all high-tech and privacy-friendly, it's not hitting the mark. It will make Google even tougher to beat in the ad world.

this whole idea of "quantum hair" that's pretty key in figuring out how black holes might actually hold onto information about their past, despite gobbling up everything in sight. It's a big deal because it challenges the notion that all that data just gets erased from the universe, tying back into the whole entropy and black holes debate. This insight could be a game-changer in meshing together the worlds of quantum mechanics and relativity.

You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship. A self-perpetuating autocracy.

I for one, welcome a post-Disney era of entertainment.

I rarely use Google any more. Using GPT4 is the equivalent of a focused, conversational search. It is trained on about the same data from the web, but I don't have to scan through pages of results and websites to assess the veracity and relevance for my purpose. Indeed, if it is a code-related query for even a mildly popular language, it can provide results in a customized code response, which is more than what Google can do. And it does it without any ads or distracting page formatting, and provides accurate links and citations so I can jump to the original page should I want to read more.

All in all, I think Google is trying to stem the tide away from other LLMs siphoning off users away from Google while still maintaining their current user base, and I frankly don't think they will be able to do - their day in the sun is ending and the dawn of the LLMs has begun.
