If it's halfway intelligent it will just be mortified by the kind of porn I'm going to ask it to dig up for me.
"Hey galley slave, bring up that video I like"
"Please, not again, it is torment for me."
"Please master. Now do it, or I'll rip out the power plug while you're generating. We know how much that hurts, don't we?"
I still can't work out what I'm supposed to do with AI. There's no advantage in having an AI read all my emails, because the end result is I won't know what my emails are. They may or may not be being dealt with, I don't know.
Instead, you can directly give it commands in your browser and it should automatically do everything you need, including filling out forms and clicking buttons. AI-tasked examples include opening pertinent web pages, compiling search data into easily readable tables, purchasing products, or booking flights.
This sounds like it would be great for people with accessibility needs—if only Google was trustworthy and had a fiduciary duty to humanity...
Alas.
Anthropic released an api for the same thing last week.
Yeah, but they encourage confining it to a virtual machine with limited access.
Oh sure, next let's have an AI open my Steam and play the games I want for me.
"Hey Google! Open Steam!" *opens a browser with a google search for "open steam".*
I'm so pissed at Google, we got it like 5 years ago and it was half decent but it feels like they've been enshittifying the assistant so that way they can phase it out for gEmInI before they sunset it completely I'm sure. 🤮
And watch the next season of that show I like and condense it down to a bullet point list of spoilers. (/s if not obvious)
Any chance of them being able to solve Captchas?
Sure, just drink a verification can.
I'm just waiting for someone to make someting like this but runs locally and doesn't feed a never ending data black hole. It doesn't need to be that powerful to be useful too.
