Quick correction: I promise I know the difference between a Transistor vs a Transformer ML model 😅 My brain mixes up words sometimes. But yes, Transformers ftw!
I adore this recent podcast format. Dave is amazing as a cast member, Adam+Ellis are killing it as producers, and their occasional banter is always welcome. Future is bright for WVFRM! 🥳
I always enjoy just about every piece of content you guys out out, but this episode was even better than normal. You guys’ more casual banter sprinkled in feels so right.
Just a minor correction. The AI algorithms that became world-leading at Go and Chess where developed by DeepMind, not OpenAI. DeepMind is an AI company that Google bought some time ago. Their major breakthrough so far has been to solve the protein folding problem.
Hey @Waveform feel free to disagree with me, but Marques' solo cam is a bit too zoomed in? Not sure if it's more zoomed in than usual, or if it's just the fact that David's solo cam has to fit two people in the frame. Either way, it's a bit jarring when cutting to Marques and he's just *massive.* Again, feel free to disagree but I'd appreciate it if the shot was a little wider ;) Great pod as always guys 👍🏾
Hearing Marques say he wouldn’t switch to Microsoft/Bing to use chatGPT gives me flashbacks of his “I don’t see the point of folding phones” stance shortly before fully embracing them.
Yes! make a video how different components and patents play to make a complete product. Also please also include some interest facts, probably David would be good at researching on that one. Love to know more infos in the video like Trivia :)
That was a fun episode! Or should I say, you folks were having a lot of fun, so we did, too. Please give Ellis some time off so he can go to a beach some place warm. I literally reduce the brightness of the screen every time he comes on! :D
You guys really need to check out the surface duo again with the Android 12L update. It's such a unique productivity device. I like having bezels to grab something (this is an issue on my ZFold3) but I wish they were on the sides instead of across the top and bottom (think iPad mini).
The Duo was delivering on a concept that got leaked from Microsoft like 10 years earlier. The public went wild for that concept and then MS slept on the idea for way too long and by the time the Duo came out, technology had caught up to the original concept and passed it. Two screens was a crazy good idea back when foldable screens weren't even a concept people thought possible.
If y’all haven’t seen it already Corridor crew did a video where they did analyze someone’s voice and chopped it up into a fake ad read from a crew member. Definitely worth a watch if you haven’t cus it literally sounds like what y’all are taking about just intentionally instead of a prank. 41:24
I'm loving the more and more frequent music technology mentions (even though it's mostly just for TE for now). Just a matter of time before we get a synth/groovebox review!
As a SharePoint admin at work.. Microsoft search which is the main search engine within SharePoint online will benefit immensely by the Open AI investment
OpenAI’s chatGPT is basically syphoning everything on internet (free and paid content) and giving internet’s best option of every question. Its not even AI. Its existing database of internet (like google) but in more conversational way
17:28. Ask the missing participant the trivia question on the studio channel/shorts. Direct us there/show a snippet. Might boost traffic to where that content is located. I might be wrong.
Delta has freen internet for whattsapp too for international and local flight, after like 20 minutes into the trip and like 30 min before landing. I fly delta only to Nigerian from the US every time, and that four flights combined.
more interesting than the likelyhood of apple using their vertical integretion to drive prices down, is that this is kind of the philosophy of meta with the quest line. spend insane amount on R&D, using custom hardware and then any savings from streamlining and sweet deals just goes into pushing more advanced hardware into the next gen
There's another part to the alleged openai/Ms deal. Once openai passes 100B in Profit the MS shares will be transferred back to openai. Between 10-100B MS will receive a smaller portion of the profits than during the 0-10B part.
I can’t believe I got the year right for that last question at the end because I literally just ignored the other two, took a wild guess at how old Mark Zuckerberg is now and at what age he started Facebook and did the math.
I came here from audio to figure out what the messages sound was for thinking it would be counting something that they were doing or saying but there’s nothing WHAT IS HAPPENING
Feedback from a fan: According to Wikipedia: The high rising terminal (HRT), also known as upspeak, uptalk, or high rising intonation (HRI) is a feature of some variants of English where declarative sentences can end with a rising pitch similar to that typically found in yes-or-no questions. Also known as valleyspeak. The first 5 minutes of listening to the podcast is a challenge. English is my second language. Listening to English sentences that end in a question, when it is not a question, is very confusing. Andrew does it frequently. The content of what he says is excellent. Just difficult to listen to.
Your podcast has been my absolute favorite for long running sessions. Thus I plea to you not to edit phone notification chime into the podcast as it would instantly mess up my blood pressure, anxiety level and pace 😅
he says “the transistor model” like three times so confidently lmao That term doesn’t mean anything in a machine learning context. He’s talking about transformers, from the paper Attention is All You Need, 2017
I wonder what the legality is around AI sourcing all kinds of material. Does it disclose sources? Is it fair use because it does not quote? Especially for artwork, that has to come from existing artwork. If it makes an illustration that is based around other work for certain percentages once they make money on that "generated" illustration do they get a percentage?
Microsoft’s AI play might be more aimed at a Windows integration? If you assume Windows level AI, feeds into anything and everything installed on Windows, that seems like a much bigger reason to use MS products in general, along with everything else we use computers for, gaming, organisation, processing, etc…
I don’t think so. They have already invested over $3B in Open AI over the years and a lot of that is Azure use and integration. This is something Nadella is personally involved in (and has been for years) and I think this will go way beyond Windows and Office.
The whole things sucks that Nothing didn't launch in USA and now they expect ppl like me to spend $300 to see if it works in USA 😡... I'm not a fan of those silly lights on back of Nothing Phone at all...I'm still supporting One Plus in America...
You guys sound like a bunch of devas talking about the surface duo. That phone, and yes I’m talking about the first one, is a beast. I’m surprised you don’t show it the love it deserves. I’d think you are regularly on teams or Skype meetings while needing to check/send texts and emails, browse to search a topic of discussion etc. no other phone, even the fold, does this as seamlessly. You guys rant about the camera. Well newsflash, some of us are adults, not selfie taking wannabe amateur photographers. I for one appreciate having a phone with no camera on the outside as it ensures extra privacy when shut. And not having an external screen is helpful for mitigating excess screen time. And the gap in the middle sometimes doesn’t matter and if it does putting it in tent mode gives it a better aspect ratio than most of the other phones. And flipping in portrait allows you to see more and scroll much better than any other phone. And unless you have tiny trump hands this thing is easy to handle. It’s reviewers like you who helped potentially destroy a great phone. Such a shame.
Original Retina MacBook Pro had two screen suppliers, one was far more prone to having dead pixels. People would buy units and return them in hopes of getting on supplier. I think it was LG vs Samsung
