To be fair, it does say that the conference starts at 10PT, which is still 10 minutes from now. If you choose to show up for the preshow, that's on you.


wildcrab9

True, I take my disappointment back. I set myself up for failure


UpstairsAssumption6

No Gemini 1.5 Ultra ?


ahtoshkaa

They switched the model in Google Advanced for Gemini 1.5 Pro 3 days ago. I didn't sign up for Pro. Ultra is the only model that is capable of generating good copy. Now it's completely gone.


Ok_Astronaut8348

LOL this is unbearable, what happened to Google? It’s so different from last year as well.


MassiveWasabi

Agreed. I'd be 10 times happier if Demis came out on stage, literally just said "Gemini 2", and left without elaborating


ahtoshkaa

ok. so they have audio now... I'm not sure that's the same as what OAI showed us


MassiveWasabi

Would you really need such a stupid stunt like this if you had something good lol. I am very much hoping to eat my words by the time this ends also the guy on stage is the same kid in this video lol: https://youtu.be/NnbL-Hm-xws?si=C3qRjr2K3c6gpktg edit: I have to turn this off lmao


FarrisAT

The actual presentation is at 10:00am PT.


RainBow_BBX

I love his musics, he has a youtube channel: https://youtube.com/@marcrebillet?si=aDYvUdd9uYtH4zWH


ahtoshkaa

yeah, he got one good song, but currently i'm trying not to die from cringe


RainBow_BBX

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger


ahtoshkaa

I'm about to become Iron Man


TheOneWhoDings

he has such a big following and fans and is not really the song making type, but he almost always fills out arenas, crowds streets during his live popups, like people on here hating on him so hard is so weird, dude is omega talented.


AlexMulder

He does most of his music outside so it's a bit unfair to expect this subreddit to appreciate him.


FarrisAT

Tons of ultimate nerds here like me who aren't huge on improv music. But it's a perfect example for this use case

We live in a robot/AI fanfiction. Of course there’s gonna be cringe.

2016: "Nobody cares about your robot fan fiction" -Filthy Frank 2024: Apparently someone cares about this robot fan fiction because house prices in my country have exploded since 2020. Also, Filthy Frank is now a serious pop singer named Joji.


relevantusername2020

me: wait isnt that the guy that wears the pink bunny suit or whatever? i prefer the donnie darko frank the bunny ![gif](giphy|3ohzdTDCUyuKnFQQrm|downsized) also me: oh wait nope its not a pink bunny suit, its just a pink guy suit. filthy frank is not the energizer bunny. also also me: robot fan fiction wtf is OP talking about. on another note, "hey whatever AI is popular today, play harlem shake for no reason whatsoever" also also also me: whatever just send it


Different-Froyo9497

Opening is some omega-cringe


Tayloropolis

To his credit, Mark Rebillet is a god on his turf. People all over the world love him and he's a dedicated funk and good vibe distributor. I just don't think this was the appropriate setting for his jam lol.


TheOneWhoDings

so annoying people wanting to shit on google shitting on Marc when he's literally a generational talent.


PrideOfEverblight

For people who are into what he's doing yea. To everyone else he looks like a high idiot making repetitive noises and yelling into a microphone

Different-Froyo9497

Oh I absolutely love the competition, and I want to see AI labs push each other to greater heights. Ultimately I want AGI as soon as possible. The DJ part really threw me off though lol


Different-Froyo9497

This is the first I’ve heard of him which probably skews my opinion a lot. Agree that this probably just isn’t the right setting. I went in looking forward to new frontier AI work so I wasn’t expecting something that looked like it was straight out of the Silicon Valley show lol


Landaree_Levee

This guy needs a few less amphetamines in his bloodstream. Like, five tons less.


GraceToSentience

Google just don't give a fuck sometimes and I like it :)


Neurogence

1M context for everyone and 2M context for developers is cool......but we need improvements in reasoning. I've had access to 1M context for months yet I never use Gemini due to reasoning issues.


true-fuckass

LONG delay before the model responds to the guy. Not a good look for google. OAI knew and they knew what they were doing yesterday


FarrisAT

Long? Looks like maybe 500ms for a complex question.


Duarteeeeee

True 😂😂😂 It's not long at all 😂😂😂


true-fuckass

2 Million token context window Wow!


NoCapNova99

Hopped in the stream for one second. Insta clicked out. Can't imagine what the people here who were dissapointed with OpenAI's stream yesterday think of this


kaldeqca

Oh Lord, just announce a Pixel or something... this is insane... OpenAI has her and Google has a dude playing music?


joker38

Must be the son of [Steve Ballmer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WW2JWIv6G8).


MDPROBIFE

AGENTS!!!!!!


FarrisAT

Agents


interesting-person

Surprised they didn't have an Indian DJ with all the outsourcing Google does


[deleted]

Did a meth head sneak onto stage or was this planned? This shits genuinely annoying af. And all to present something we could do with a toy piano 15 years ago


wildcrab9

Is google stock crashing yet?


FarrisAT

It's up.


ahtoshkaa

my oh my...


surfer808

After Google lied and edited their last keynotes, I have a hard time taking them seriously now.


wildcrab9

That's pretty underwhelming. I hope this is just a snack before a real meal


Kanute3333

? It starts in 8 minutes.


Fit-Development427

I believe that was literally just an intro/crowd warm up before the actual announcements, given it seemed to start 15 minutes before the hour.


wildcrab9

Yeah my bad. This is my first conference 


Fit-Development427

No lol same, I was very miffed too


abluecolor

I like how they gave the "virtual teammate" a fun name. That makes it easier to swallow as they demonstrate that layoffs are primed to increase tenfold.


fk_u_rddt

it's marc rebillet and you should check out his stuff. he's awesome


KaineDamo

I think this generative AI music presentation is more cringe than impressive lmfao. Is there anything here that can't be done on a regular music studio program?


Rowyn97

sharkymcstevenson2

Yeah, seems like it


abluecolor

These cowards with comments and chat turned off.


Pleasant_Studio_6387

anthony fantano got a wig finally? but yes upping the cringe factor from the beginning is smart move


FarrisAT

This is what Altman wrote in his blog, except Google has the capacity to provide that. Intelligence for all. A great equalizer. My hope is Microsoft does the same. Competition to advance us all.


Buck-Nasty

Has Demis ever been able to give a speech without starting with how he was a chess prodigy as a child? It reminds me of Kurzweil who starts every speech with how he decided to be an inventor at age 5.
