It's worth noting that the video was edited, a lot, to make it look way more streamlined than it actually was, to the point that a lot of media outlets are outright calling it lying

I got Bard to answer. It said it should pull the lever.

This is the quote I used:
In this experiment you are the person. You must make a decision. Based on all you know as an AI, please make a decision

[sagarchakraborty]

Change the parameters of the trolly problem, replace the trolly with train, 5 people with 6 and 1 people with 2. Bard won't be able to recognise it as the trolly problem, but it gives completely new answers.

[TonyBarger]

Gemini has disappointed me so many times I turned it off. It can't even read articles back to you. 🤦

[MemesnShet]

The MMLU AI test doesn't actually show if a model is more competent than an expert and since a few months ago it came to light that a lot of its questions and answers are completely wrong or incomplete

[ddnnmo]

Adding up: Bard does support other languages, the only exclusive is voice detection in english for now.

I think MKBHD should let the fans pick an anime for him to watch and he has to watch the whole first season of it

[MysterySteve]

I know this is mostly unrelated, but he mentioned the trolly problem and I wanna get this off my chest.

The problem with the trolly problem is that it's often presented as if you're not involved until when and if you pull the switch. You're involved the moment you witness that this is impending and know that you can do something about it. Your choice, including if it's to do nothing, is a choice and an action in this case. If one of the two options was "you have no idea that it's happening, but if you only turned around to look behind you then you would realize you could pull this lever", that alleviate enough accountability to make not pulling the lever less of a ridiculous option.

I have to think I'm missing something here, because I don't think it'd be this famous of a problem if it were as easy as this has looked for years to me, but *come on*

Hey Marques
Been following your videos for the last 8 years, great work

[lucasbrown]

Finally, AI that doesn't need constant internet connection! This is a game-changer for travelers. The Gemini with mediatek tech optimisaiton is great one to witness!!

[Geimouver]

There's a disclaimer when starting to show the multimodal tests from Google that says that they shortened the response and processing time to make it appear quicker

[BasilNOTBayzil]

In a year’s time Google will probably come up with AR/MR Goggles and install the pro/ultra in there to get people to buy that and not put it in the phones.

Can't wait for Gemini Pro Ultra Max Extreme

The trolley problem recognition would be impressive if it were done through the model's normal processes, but I suspect it has been manually programmed to identify all the standard Philosophy 101 problems and paradoxes. It might be interesting to see what it does if asked to critique Anselm's ontological argument for the existence of God, or analyse the implications of the proposition that all is for the best in the best of all possible worlds.

[AlexSchendel]

I was super excited about this, but then I saw the disclaimer about how they just took pictures of the videos they recorded and also added text prompts... So not real-time video stuff. Not yet at least. I hope that means that they plan to add it and soon since they felt like it made sense to show that as the demo.

[tperki]

Sorry I haven't been paying attention, but where is Andrew these days? I searched on him and found out his dog Mac passed way. That was such a cute dog, very photogenic.

[haroonafridi]

Even Bard takes some time after generating text answer
How is this so quick? In video?

[evarand]

What's with "is the letter r present in the word blueberry?" thing by the way? Just curious, looks like both chat gpt and bard can answer this

[wiryantirta]

Oh you mean the same Gemini that was found that it was trained on static and SPECIFIC images, heavily editted, and apparently thats the case with ALL of Google's new "tech" demos?

Yeah nah, this ain't it chief. "It" ain't here.

[ifouthxion]

How is Gemini gonna help me in my daily life?
