Uh, how is this a surprise? Musk wants the X app to be a WeChat for the free world. It would have mail, voice, messaging, payment, and oh yeah, Twotter.

Not just Gmail, Google is shutting down the entire world this year

Microsoft is the controlling entity behind OpenAI and ChatGPT — Google’s LMs are having trouble getting the same exposure.

LLMs

Thanks for the reminder. I just got a Fitbit Inspire 3 watch. All black, not some girl colors, which most Inspire 3 bands are — No wonder they are also called fitness trackers. F’ing google tracks you with it. I must check my Fitbits location settings. I think I opted out on that.

So now you can be tracked via your phone. And via your fitbit which is most useful when you wear it all the time. Even when sleeping. It is a sleep monitor too. How long you slept. Your O2 levels when sleeping and more.

Warning — This model fitbit will not give you on the fly O2 readings. Only records your O2 while sleeping, that you can read the next day. This must be great if you have sleep apnea and similar.

The subtext re AI isn’t some outlandish robot conspiracy that will kill us all a la Terminator. It’s a search engine that gives us what we want that would normally take a huge amount of time, because it has collated and synthesized a huge amount of data. If Twitter manages this feat, it will crush Google. For stock investors, you might be able to pull IBM’s entire earnings history, compare returns on capital in different periods at the expense of merely being able to formulate the appropriate request. If Musk pulls this off first, Twitter will have been worth every penny.

Wrong! Bing AI search is lots of fun and does what you describe. But AI is lots more than that. See any of Joe Allen's videos on YouTube. --- https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Joe+Allen+AI

Many of the top AI guys want to make 10x more millions money and more power over peasants like you and me. AI is already planting chips into chimps brains. Mice and a few humans too.

You are absolutely right. I should have known that. I’ve been off my game recently

HA, when I click on page, it says RISKY!!

Anyone on here using Gmail that doesn’t have to is not paying attention.
