Oh I forgot to mention, the actual full image itself is indexed on Google image search as a page on poison mushrooms. So... Yay for progress or something.

What's even funnier is that Google Lens immediately identifies it as a deadly mushroom. So they went ahead and made something way worse than what they already had.

Samsung and AT&T started a partnership with a company called Branch Metrics that would allow a user to search for information across apps already downloaded on the phone. Google felt this was a "threat," Dintzer said, and subsequently changed its agreements with AT&T and Samsung to prohibit it.

Is this true? (I asked a year ago on Twitter too, apologies: twitter.com/danielsgriff...)
But I thought Bing’s price changes for use in generative AI pushed folks to rely less heavily on them. You has YouBot: about.you.com/youbot/; there’s Mojeek.

“This case is about the future of the internet and whether Google’s search engine will ever face meaningful competition," DOJ's Kenneth Dintzer says. “For the last 12 years, Google has abused its monopoly in general search”

Nope! It’s just what OpenAI used in their cookbook. I guess it’d be easy enough to try different ones and compare. It’s just searching my own notes and posts for now. Any recommendations?

I'm imagining an instructor somewhere making a syllabus with chat gpt, assigning reading from books that don't exist

But the students don't notice, because they are asking chat gpt to summarize the book or write the essay
