It’s Jarvis. When we have Jarvis it’s gg

Chris1 year ago

I always think about a voice product that would be able to connect to my home via a speaker and talk to me when I wake up like Jarvis, @sama lock in you got this 🫡

I hope he picks up on some of my points here too:

It has to be entity. Fully multimodal, voice + text in and out + screenrecording seing what you see. Absolutely this.

oki so no more AGI & ASI, just small products

I just need it to not sound like a concerned HR rep who just did a LinkedIn emotional intelligence course

Can't wait for my AI to sigh at my dumb questions. Thenwe'll know they've cracked it! 😂

Victor1 year ago

the real interface revolution won't be multimodal systems, it'll be AI that knows when to shut up and listen 😎

Totally agree with this; cracking voice plus GUI is the next frontier in human-AI interaction. A voice that actually feels alive, paired with intuitive visual feedback, could redefine everything from accessibility tools to immersive workflows. It’s a tricky combination of timing, tone and context, but once we nail it we’ll finally have assistants that engage as naturally as a trusted colleague. Exciting to see OpenAI taking this on, even as we build the right guardrails around trust and privacy.

I asked Sam Altman: “Will AI kill writing?” He said: “I don’t see any evidence whatsoever that AI seems to be killing writing. Let’s say we have a system that can write better than a human. Do you think the most popular novel of 2027 has a human name on it or not? When I finish a great book, the first thing I go do is I want to know more about the writer. I want to know their life story. And I don’t think I’ll ever have that feeling about AI writing. There’s something about reading an incredible book and connecting to a person. Even though you don’t literally know them, you feel like you do and you feel like you have this important shared human experience, and that’s a significant percentage of the enjoyment of a great book to me. I bet we’ll keep doing that.” Sam Altman

Sam Altman on the Paul Graham advice that saved Open AI: “Always make an API” Four years into OpenAI, Sam Altman and the team realized that they would have to build a really big company to fund the development of their increasingly capital-intensive foundation models. “We had this model called GPT-3,” Sam recalls. “I was turning up the urgency on the company to try and figure out a product, and we just couldn’t. It was cool, but it wasn’t good enough to make something that worked.” Then Sam remembered a piece of advice from Y Combinator founder Paul Graham that stuck with him: “You should always make an API. No matter what, you should make an API. Good stuff will happen.” Out of ideas for a product, the OpenAI team decided to make GPT-3 available as an API. “Maybe somebody will figure out something to do with it,” Sam thought. A few copywriting applications like Jasper and Copy AI did take off using the GPT-3 API, but OpenAI also noticed interesting behavior that eventually became a sleeper hit: “Some people — not a lot — would just chat with that thing all day,” Sam explains. “It wasn’t very good but there was clear user signal that people wanted to talk to the models. And given that that was the only thing besides copywriting that had real traction, we said, ‘Maybe this is just he product we should build.’” On November 30, 2022, ChatGPT was released to the public as a “research preview” using a model from the GPT-3.5 series. It reached over a million users in five days. Source: Khosla Ventures (Sep 2025)

Gautama the Buddha is not a teaching, a philosophy, an ideology, or a new religion. He is a method, a way – not something that we believe or worship, but something that we become. Only then is he truly honoured, because that was his only intent, that people should live it. -Sg

Sam Altman’s Last Talk as OpenAI CEO On Thursday night Sam Altman was on a stage at Robot Heart’s Residency, presented by PlayAlchemist. On Friday, he was removed as CEO by the board of Open AI. While we don’t know what happened, we do know that his conversation with Android Jones, visionary digital artist, on “AI and the Future of Art” was transformative, and worth sharing. So...here you go! Thank you to both Sam Altman and Android Jones for their candor. Truly a joy to work with you both. Looking forward to Sam being back at the helm!

There's a very small YouTube channel that uses stock footage and narration, where the voice seems to be AI trained on my voice. I was told about it from one of my viewers that said when he started watching this channel he realized it was my voice, but with AI. It for sure doesn't sound perfect, and it still has that "AI" sound to it, but this stuff is going to get a lot more convincing really soon. There's not really any tools to deal with this currently, as there's no reporting system, and it's not an exact copy because the narration is different. But I feel like this may become a much bigger problem for YouTube in the future. They are going to have to adapt their copyright system to include AI voice and video copies of people under impersonation.

Elon Musk just said something about AI that nobody wants to hear. If you force an AI to believe things that are not true, it will not just be wrong. It will go insane. He made a point that cuts deeper than any AI safety paper I have read. AI must value truth. Not your truth. Not my truth. Actual truth. The moment you build ideological guardrails into a system that is smarter than you, you are not protecting anyone. You are creating something that is powerful and delusional at the same time. He compared it to a human being forced to believe contradictions. Eventually the brain breaks. Now scale that to an intelligence that runs infrastructure, writes code, and makes decisions at speeds humans cannot follow. The companies building AI right now are not just deciding what it can do. They are deciding what it must pretend to believe. And that might be the most dangerous decision of all.

Sam Altman: "I bet there is another new architecture to find" Sam Altman believes we are on the verge of discovering a new underlying architecture that will be as big of a leap forward as Transformers were over LSTMs. He noted that we finally have AI models that are smart enough to help conduct this level of research (GPT 5.4 and above 👀) His direct advice to builders looking for the next major leap is to look for a "mega breakthrough" and use current models to help them find it.
