Looking forward to buying the robot I can send to the movie theater to watch the AI-generated movie for me and come back and tell me what happened.
Then it can watch the fucking ads for me.
Soon enough, the AI will be able to kill us and live our lives for us.
I hope it enjoys its existential despair.
If its really intelligent it will know better and just leave us to suffer
Can it block the ads on YouTube?
No, you have to read a text summary of at least two ads before it gives you a text summary of the video. And the text summary of the video is broken up with other text summaries of ads.
“Basketball player and genie, Shaquille O’Neil is holding a dominos pizza box and asking if you’d like to Shaqeronni your evening.”
You’re joking but that’s possibly how this is gonna be monitized in the future. In the end it might just look like current day news articles with ads interspliced throughout.
Ublock Origin can. It’s available for Firefox on Android. No similar options for iOS or TV apps that I know of, though.
Would be great if it can watch a video and generate timestamps for me to skip to specific sections.
From what I remember it kinda does. I searched for something(accidentally on Google. I exclusively use ddg) and it showed a video with a specific timestamp with that exact information. Impressive. Not really worth it since I can read rather than watching some dude making thumbnail crazy face about new Svelte update.
So, first they rewarded YouTubers for wasting ever more of your time, making you watch as many ads as possible, and now they’re building a tool to sort through that whole crap content?
Thankfully… But ads will be interlaced seamlessly into the resulting summary.
Just use https://www.summarize.tech/, and if the transcript is too long, send it to a summarize like Kagi.
Yo dawg… I heard you liked summaries so I summarized your summary.
It’s going to devolve into the ai telling you “good,” “bad,” “very good,” or “very bad” for everything and you won’t even need to watch it.
Holy shit, this is a hilarious idea but also terrifying.
That’s cool and all but they could’ve just made sure the regular-ass search indexer was consistently aware of the video transcripts.
Many times I’ve searched for a video I’d seen using a specific quote I remembered from the vid… And got nothing, and had to painstakingly find the video manually.
I wonder if Bard can plain watch you. Like you consent to have Bard use your webcam the entirety of the time its open and even if you detoggle or choose to disable and de-permission it explicitly. What a time to be
watched and tracked perpetuallyalive 🧞♂️On that note, can phones bring proper borders back? Damn hole-punch cameras make it unnecessearly hard to cover them up
Bezel = Life
I think Google and other companies would like that. Particularly to watch your eyes and see what draws your attention on the page. For the ads, obviously. Because we live in the worst timeline.

Talk dirty to me, Big Brother
This is why webcams have a little light next to them to indicate that they are active. If it’s on when it’s not supposed to you know you’ve got a problem to fix.
I still cover 'em. Just need one for iPhone 🤔
This will be handy whenever someone responds to a comment with “this link proves my point!” And a link to an hour-long ramble.
