Could you show your boss this or pass it on to someone who can?
Probably get a chat with @carolecadwalla.bsky.social too? She's got a much better view of Palantir. Thanks.

Big AI - "Voice! That's the future! Everyone interact with technology by talking!"

Rest of the world - "pretty sure we've had that option for literally years and it sucks, it's embarrassing and we don't do that."

Desperate to keep having a 'Next Big Thing'

OpenAI bets big on audio as Silicon Valley declares war on screens | TechCrunch
The form factors may differ, but the thesis is the same: audio is the interface of the future. Every space -- your home, your car, even your face -- is becoming an interface.

Urban street scene, brightly lit neon signs, shining because of rain. View of commuter descending an escalator seen through a gap in a building and other escalators Urban street scene in the rain looking down a wide road full of cars, many umbrellas on the right hand pavement. A tall many storied building appears at the end of the road with lights that seem to glow in the misty rain. Night time view in the rain of a small colourful restaurant.

Dear Bluesky,
www.thenerve.news is still tiny. We launched it with no dirty money (no money at all, lol!). But we're proving what's possible with a small expert team & no billionaire owners.

We knew the UK press wouldn't understand or properly cover this story, so we did. Thank you for the support!

Hundreds of billions of dollars to date, more energy intensive than a medium sized city, burning through capital, still failing to turn a profit and and the latest gpt4 is finally at the level of your own personal Grima Wormtongue, but more useless.

I used the term, "turns to worms" recently to blank stares from everyone in earshot and accusations of not a real phrase.

Internet isn't helping and I have no idea why I've had this expression my whole life.
It means something is going to go to shit basically. Weather, situation etc.

Anyone?
