Google shows off Gemini's conversational skills ahead of I/O

14 May 2024
The demo is similar to what OpenAI showed with GPT-4o as the AI was able to use the phone's camera to see the world around it and chat about it.

Bailey , 14 May 2024Why?because of too many variables that can occur without prior warning. what they demoed was inside their building, so they trained the AI really good. I want to see a real life demo, to take it out on the streets, but not somewhere famous, like times square, real life situation where normal people live and experience.

        Wow they are literally creating JARVIS :D
        (or more accurately, Johansson's AI character from the movie 'Her')

        But as always, such feats from a powerful omniscient company like Google will be a different story. Very very cool nonetheless. I was waiting for them to incorporate lifelike speech rather than non-AI robotic speech. I've recently been playing around with those extremely lifelike text-to-speech technology (like Elevenlabs).

          lol, this looks like Google trying to catch up once again (anyone remembers Bard? lol)

                  I watched last I/O in 2023. It was like 50 minutes boring AI nonsense, then finally Android 14 for 2 minutes and then the already-forgotten Pixel Fold for 5 minutes. It was so disappointing I’m not sure I’ll watch this one. The Galaxy S24 event at least also talked about the phones and not just AI. Anyway I‘m looking forward to WWDC, their take on the AI topic has been much more tasteful instead of the obnoxious „we say AI as much as possible so the stock price goes up“ strategy that competitors have been trying.

                    I can't believe that Google and Openai developed something very similar with regards to multimodal AI. What are the chances they developed a near identical product?

                      I am sure AI will bring improvements in our lives, but in real life, this demo will absolutely not work
