I should explain why I laughed so hard.

Google's keynote ends with Pichai saying that someone will probably count how many times they said AI, so they asked Gemini to count.
Then you see an animation of the IO script being dragged on the AI search box, which returns “120”. Clip: https://youtu.be/PE89NysJEUY?si=veyEVFt3WYht8Ns2&t=647

You know what can count how many times a word is in a text file?

ANY. EFFING. TEXT. EDITOR.

If this isn't hype, I don't know what is.

The funniest cherry on top is that the number counted by an AI cannot be trusted, while a Find in TextEdit can.

God save us from these companies trying to be funny,

(And I am not against AI, just annoyed by the need to sprinkle it on every freaking thing, at all costs).

There’s food for thoughts, though, if you have money to invest.

Both OpenAI and Google used their event to highlight that NVIDIA gave them access to their top-tier GPUs.

If the AI hype continues as it probably will, 2.3 Billion USD is probably a low market cap for NVIDIA.

@cdf1982 and let's not even question why the IO script was in a .txt file.... It wasn't even a .docx they dropped in there...
