Google Just Went ALL-IN on AI (Everything You Need to Know)

I thought it was an underwhelming presentation. It was an hour of people walking to a spot on the stage to announce a snazzy name for something that doesn't seem ground-breaking and isn't ready yet. OpenAI seems WAY ahead, IMO.

I am 36, and I know (I knew since my childhood) that I was born in a special time where I experience it all. From being born in a war torn country with no technology, telephone line being installed at the age of 7, then moving to a developed nation and experiencing computers at the age 10 to singularity hopefully at the age 42.

What stood out to me was how complex the branding and availability were. I think Googles product is to fragmented. And clearly they think people will pay for this - they will not.

[@bigglyguy8429]

Fragmented and they will do the Google Graveyard on most of it, even if released, and most of this will never be released. They're blowing smoke to try and capture attention back from OAI, who already showed real-time multi-module GAI

[@noone-ld7pt]

Agreed, they do seem to be the closest competitor to OpenAI but they're still pretty far behind. The video model that was an attempt to replicate Sora was so significantly worse that I'm surprised they even included it.

[@ellicel]

Agreed. I don't understand what their "flagship" AI product is that's actually ready and already running.

While Google's showing videos of "cool stuff they're working", OpenAI releases a new version the same day as their event. Besides youtubers & the people who work at Google, who the hell is paying for Google Advance anyway?

[@zackrubinsin6142]

There s 4million user and more cloud user , what you think ?

[@king2178]

@zackrubinsin6142 "PAID" users. I have a Galaxy S23 Ultra, which makes me one of those 4 million TOTAL users you mentioned. Of those 4 million, 1.5 million are developers. By comparison, ChatGPT has approximately 180.5 million users. This isn't the "gotcha" you think it is.

[@zackrubinsin6142]

@king2178 yeah, but sill amount of user and chatgpt free version user and paid user total is around 1.6-7 b. So gemini is around half of chatgpt. That still alot and sorry , mistake here, it's 400m user sorry

Great work Matt thanks bro

[@ChicagoJ351]

I saw the token limit for Gemini the other day when i checked. This changes everything. Although, I was thinking the words are a bit more than tokens since one token can represent more than one word in some cases, maybe I have it backwards. The thing people need to know about this is imagine a paragraph of text you would enter as a prompt into an ai chat bot. And then say, by the way also have a look at this text file with thousands of lines of text providing additional context for my prompt. Open ai is 8k last I checked, Gemini is a million. Working with ai apis can now become a form of research where you can train ai. It’s all about context and input token capacity.

Regardless of what they say, data is always collected, categorized, analyzed, identified and used against you. That is the core business model of big tech.

@@ZappyOh We should be getting a slice of the pie and get a paycheck every time our data is used by companies' Data collection has been going on for so many years now, and from what I heard, data selling has been around since the 1980s, so from then until now, people should be getting something. Some could say this could be our UBI.

Hey Matt. Very Nice Video. Your reviews always break things down simply and concisely for easy understanding. I need to mention that the things you said from time-stamp 13:20 to 15:50 really got to me. You made us understand that these people we, most times, throw negativities against are human. Gives me a more empathetic perspective towards them. Thank you for that. Welldone!

[@stevecharles5782]

Good job Matt. Appreciate all the brilliant updates, and love the excitement in your voice, Lol. A kid in a candy store, just like me!

[@dvdmon]

It's funny how everything is time and context dependent, even to the day. If OpenAI had waited till next week to make their announcement, half of these "meh" reviews would have been gone. Of course it's not as impressive as OpenAI's demo, but it's a much more broad array of tools that you can't really compare EXCEPT in the direct interaction of their LLM. Sure, that one is not on par, except in their special beta low-latency model, but there's a lot here that OpenAI is not doing, including the massive context window and the interaction with Google services, which many people use even if you may not. In other words, OpenAI is much flashier. Google has seldom impressed with flashiness, but they are obviously committed to trying to catch up after dropping the ball. You can bust on them if you want, but I think it's a bit unfair. Progress is good even if it's not always blowing your mind...

[@BackAlleyDepravity]

Did they fix Gemini's bias?

[@catebligh]

I gotta say, the 15 seconds of b-roll behind the scenes footage did so much to improve my thoughts on the whole presentation. What I saw was stiff, cringy, fake, and corporate boring. If they had just zoomed out to a dirty frame on one angle, it would have change the entire presentation for us watching. Now I think whoever hires an innovative production company will take over in this AI race.

[@driftedsun]

Thanks for the video! I’ve been using Gemini to quiz me on my textbooks and it’s been amazing. I find it a bit odd that all the AI creators have been silent about Google’s event despite immediately making videos on OpenAI’s event. Having access to 1M context length RIGHT NOW is huge news, and it’s clear that Google pretty much already had what OpenAI revealed with the video interactions down, albeit less polished, and that they seemingly rushed their own announcement to pre-empt that. Google’s catching up and keeping pace in a lot of core ways faster than people would like to admit, while simultaneously having a broader scope of projects, much greater integration (the local AI model for android is sick), and, ironically, being somewhat more open, with their Gemma models. OpenAI hasn’t released its video chat/live voice mode yet either, nor has it released Sora.

[@thelifewithnate]

Woahhh, you're actually using Gemini with studying? Tell me more, are you having Gemini analyze your entire textbook and then quiz you on essential tidbits?

[@driftedsun]

@@thelifewithnate Yup, uploaded my Law and Society textbook and had it generate 20 question quizzes at a time on a few chapters to help me memorize different cases, keywords, and concepts. What’s more incredible is the textbook was a not-great-quality 400-page PDF and it OCRed it no problem. As a side note, one thing that I think Google’s video chat as shown has over OpenAI’s (though maybe this isn’t hard for OpenAI to remedy), is that it seems able to respond to changes on camera without further prompting. Like the Google employee said “tell me when you see something that creates sound,” and when it saw the speaker, it took the initiative to speak up. Whereas, OpenAI’s app seemed to require the user to prompt it to give them an update before it would speak, “okay now what am I wearing?” That said, both seem to be using the same cache concept, since OpenAI’s model was able to tell the story of what happened when the woman entered the frame, made bunny ears, and left. Google’s impressed me with retaining the detail of the glasses though.

A lot of really talented people at Google making projects they are really excited about. Most of which will never get used by most of the public and will eventually stagnate and be canceled. Google as a company has no vision. They just throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks. I am tired of digging for google projects that fit into my life only to have them canceled after I rearrange my workflow for them.

Love the feature you described around 11:40, the real-time ability to detect potential scammers whilst receiving a phone call, this should and will be an industry-wide feature.

[@noone-ld7pt]

To me this was a showcase of how Google is just not caught up yet. The amount of times they hyped up the context window (which arguably is their only real advantage over OpenAI right now and is really impressive), the showcases of things they haven't even made yet but could be possible, and all the niche use cases that are being proclaimed as gamechanging. It just seemed a bit desparate to me. Compare it to how OpenAI launches the best model in the world with GPT-4o and just casually refers to it as GPT-4 level intelligence for all. They don't need to overhype anything because they know they are still far ahead in most aspects.
