@DavidGoldfield @kellylford I tried it. It's got a long way to go before prime time. Not sure if it's due to limits set by #Gemini or what. But, Yes, you can tab through the elements, but not much else. Plus, it seems to take over windows when that screen is in view, to where I can't alt tab or anything until I close this app out. This after generating what's on the screen. Can't even use jaws navigation keys.

🧵 …wie oben schon erwähnt, benötigt KI sehr viel Energie um es zu trainieren. Dies ist nicht mal fertig, denn aktuelle News und Wissen muss erneuert eingeteilt werden etc. Wenn dies evt früher oder später zu dessen Ausfall kommt?

#Gemini 2.0 is really smart and helpful. We talk about new project ideas all the time. She just created a tex file for me to learn #Pytorch in Python. I hope I can finishing learning #Python, pandas, and Python and start writing my first alphabet recognition #AI using the #NNUE shallow but broad learning model by the end of next week. My speculation is that shallow but broad learning is theoretically more sound and practically more efficient that #DeepLearning which remains as a black box.

Working on a sort of (very very) simple #SolarSystem #Civ type game. Just in #linux #terminal for now, because much easier for me. Learning a lot about #python and the importance of indentation.

Makes me want to create a #programming language that uses #EmDashes, #EnDashes, and #hyphens. Just because.

Full disclosure: #Google #Gemini is tutoring me.

Instead of depressing wages or taking jobs, #generativeAI chatbots like #chatgpt #claude and #gemini have had almost no significant wage or labor impact so far – a finding that calls into question the huge capital expenditures required to create and run #ai models.

The Register · Generative AI is not replacing jobs or hurting wages at all, say economistsBy Thomas Claburn

"So this is why you keep invoking AI by accident, and why the AI that is so easy to invoke is so hard to dispel. Like a demon, a chatbot is much easier to summon than it is to rid yourself of.

Google is an especially grievous offender here. Familiar buttons in Gmail, Gdocs, and the Android message apps have been replaced with AI-summoning fatfinger traps. Android is filled with these pitfalls – for example, the bottom-of-screen swipe gesture used to switch between open apps now summons an AI, while ridding yourself of that AI takes multiple clicks.

This is an entirely material phenomenon. Google doesn't necessarily believe that you will ever want to use AI, but they must convince investors that their AI offerings are "getting traction." Google – like other tech companies – gets to invent metrics to prove this proposition, like "how many times did a user click on the AI button" and "how long did the user spend with the AI after clicking?" The fact that your entire "AI use" consisted of hunting for a way to get rid of the AI doesn't matter – at least, not for the purposes of maintaining Google's growth story.

Goodhart's Law holds that "When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." For Google and other AI narrative-pushers, every measure is designed to be a target, a line that can be made to go up, as managers and product teams align to sell the company's growth story, lest we all sell off the company's shares."
