Yes but the power of it is that you can in effect refine your search using natural language, like talking to a person, as it remembers the last 2-3 exchanges.

And it presents the information the way you asked to see it.

For example (my side of the “conversation”):

• What is hamas?
• Compared to Hezbollah?
• what are the differences between Shia and Sunni?

The citations confirm the information, they are not the end goal. The added value is the fact that the information is pre-digested and presented in a way that matches my learning process. It’s a lot easier for me to assimilate information by getting answers to questions that I’ve asked.

The one in Skype works quite well and is usually not blocked by companies firewalls… Or so I’ve heard…

As far as I know Google and Bing return AI results just above the usual web page results.

In addition AI LLM tools like Copilot (the mobile app) and Perplexity which cite their sources with links to websites really make it easier to weed out the BS from LLM answers, if you use them carefully. In my case, these tools replace search engines in 80% of the searches that I do.

This article really sounds like it describes an alternate reality to me. Interesting to see how many people in the comments seem to hate self checkouts but here in the UK they seem to work fine. Shops seem to have found the right balance. In the same shop you’ll have queues advancing rapidly at self checkouts and people run tills with shorter queues for customers who prefer the human interaction.

Would be good if they also force companies to support security updates for more that 5 years…

I don’t need to change phone. I like my S10+. It does what I need. But I feel I’ll have to change it soonish if I want to continue using for online banking etc.

Well it depends what user experience and quality you are after. Some of Meta’s Llama 2 models require several GBs of GPU ram to run and be responsive.

But if you buy a newer car you contribute to increasing the demand for new vehicles (indirectly).

I think driving your car to the ground is the most environment friendly approach anyway regardless of the type of car you’ll buy next.

I think it does, and it seems to work because of a defrosting feature that earlier models didn’t have. But I wouldn’t say it does so very clearly. Unless I missed it.

Would they have been better off firing the employee (on their return to work) without providing any reason?

Yes, it’s a bit more than just hitting the ‘enter’ key.

Can they copy the artist’s ai generated art including the signature and sell that?

Same as what others said. We basically don’t have a driveway. The UK government is pushing for public chargers to become more reliable and easier to use though. This reinforced our fears that the current infrastructure may be unreliable but at the same time really gives hope that it will be good enough for us in the very near future. Our employer’s office also doesn’t currently offer charging, which some of our friends get, which is really nice for people in my situation.

Thanks! And thanks for your insights. Yes I meant that my experience using LLM is limited to just asking bing chat questions about everyday problems like I would with a friend that “knows everything”. But I never looked at the science of formulating “perfect prompts” like I sometimes hear about. I do have some experience in AI/ML development in general.

We were looking at getting an EV without being able to charge it at home. Charging it at public chargers here in the UK would’ve cost about the same as petrol. But having to rely on the public charging infrastructure in its current state made us decide against it, at least for now.

In my limited experience the issue is often that the “chatbot” doesn’t even check what it says now against what it said a few paragraphs above. It contradicts itself in very obvious ways. Shouldn’t a different algorithm that adds a some sort of separate logic check be able to help tremendously? Or a check to ensure recipes are edible (for this specific application)? A bit like those physics informed NN.
