I was watching... meh all the time and then suddenly it goes blank and disappears. Like, wtf Google. After yesterday's Microsoft presentation, this was such an underwhelming event.
And it gets real tiring on how much Google tries to create an idea on how advanced their AI is.. (and it might be) but the fact is, nobody can access it or try it. So until we actually are able to put our hands on something, I'm calling vaporware. At least with OpenAI we get to experiment and build actual products with it.
I think this is the big take away from all this ChatGPT vs. Google. Non-tech people could experiment first hand how scaringly powerful a well crafted AI can be.
I can totally see why ML researchers that were expecting end-user products being notebook like and targeting data engineers were took off guard by the sudden discovery of the how a chat interface is powerful and usable by anyone.
