It's been decades since I was a Wendy's manager, but when I was (mid aught) I don't remember anyone ever ordering a "JBC." Perhaps the times have changed. That said, a shockingly large amount of people would regularly ask for a "McDouble," which was, at the time, a dollar menu item sold by McDonald's and for which we had no comparable product to offer. (also "Happy Meals," "chicken mcnuggets," and all the other McDonald's branding) I don't think it's impossible to train an AI to deal with those situations, but someone still has to consider it. I'm honesty bummed I don't live close enough to this Ohio store to go Turing test this Wendy's order taker.
Okay, teaching a chatbot to know that a "McDouble" actually means a Junior Bacon Cheeseburger at Wendy's actually DOES sound like a fascinating computer science problem? I'm back in, I love this
So, Wendy’s is made to order, meaning they’ll make it how you order it. For example, the Dave’s Double has over 200 billion possible variations. (The math is sound) Then think about all the ways people talk such as no pickles, hold the pickles, without, lose the pickles. People, order a combo with out a drink which means they really just want ala-cart. There’s questions like, what can I get that’s keto.… it’s a crazy hard problem to solve…
Its not just parents that type in single name websites - people don't use bookmarks the way they used to and younger kids have grown up with google working like this. Its quicker and easier to type "Facebook" or any other single name site and press enter than it is to type in the whole name. Especially when browser address bars are also google search boxes.....
I could be way off but is it possible that Samsung forced Google to price the Pixel Fold at $1,799? Google has almost always positioned the Pixel as a flagship phone without the flagship price, so it's curious that they'd price the Pixel Fold at the exact same price as the Galaxy Fold. They're practically giving away their tablet and speaker stand at $500, so I find it hard to believe that they couldn't have priced the Pixel Fold at a more reasonable $1,499.
I get how hard it would be to stop, but every single photo, video, audio file that is edited by AI should be tag as such. Big tech needs to develop a standard and tech needs to adopt it. Misinformation is going to be so dangerous without it.
The problem is it’s so easy to get rid of image metadata - you can edit the EXIF data directly using free software, Lightroom let’s you scrub it during export, and when the image is converted from one format to another (which happens pretty much every time you upload something onto a image hosting site) the metadata rarely goes with it. Even if companies like Adobe actively blocked you from removing or changing the metadata and social media companies made sure to preserve the data during upload, that’s not going to stop free open source apps from letting you do it anyway - or even just taking a screenshot and using that instead since ultimately an image is really just a big collection of pixels regardless of where it was generated from.
The single most exciting thing announced at Google I/O 2023 for me was the updates and improvements to Google Bard, a generative AI system that can create original content based on user input. I am hoping that one day Google Bard gets implemented into the Chrome web browser in some way, so that I can use it to write blog posts, emails, or even stories with just a few keywords. Google Bard was first introduced at Google I/O 2022 as an experimental project that leverages Google's natural language understanding and generation capabilities. It can produce text in various formats, such as poems, lyrics, summaries, essays, and more. It can also adapt to different tones, styles, and languages. I think Google Bard is a fascinating and innovative application of AI that can unleash the creativity and productivity of millions of users. I am looking forward to seeing how it evolves and improves over time. I am hoping that one day Google Bard gets implemented into the Chrome web browser in some way, so that I can use it to generate content on the fly without switching apps or platforms.
@@reckless1280 Bing AI sidebar in Microsoft Edge. And clearly more emails, student notes, documents, etc. Are going to be written by AI so no I don't feel bad that my autism and adhd no longer holds me back from writing comments because I can just give AI a prompt and let it do the rest.
😂😂 folding phone is so funny. More things that can go wrong with a phone let’s add them and oh they are completely unnecessary for 99.9% of the world. Other than tech reporters and a few enthusiasts after 5 years no one cares. Truly no one but it does get a company press.
Nilay's cameras all over the place. It kept shaking every time he spoke. Looks even his camera was agreeing and nodding to him.
I think it might be a laptop camera

I'm usually an audio listener, but....is anyone going to warn Nilay about the earthquake happening in his hotel???
All this is cool, can we please bring back scissor vodka?

Thanks so much Guys always appreciate it and Enjoy ✌️
Feeling motion sickness with this video... I think you need to apply a video stabilisation.

Thanks guys…right on time.
What thing are you most excited for that was announced at Google I/O this year?
I would sign up for labs but it's US only 🙃

I see you

You definitely wrote this with Bard, didn’t you

Pixel Fold looks pretty cool. I’d switch.
JBC’s!! 😂
