In your book, when was the last good day in AI, Gary? Isn’t it time for you to leave us behind and go somewhere worthwhile? Cannot wait to see what you will build next.

Apple Vision Pro: Copying Existing AR/VR Technology at Premium Price
By
–
Meta and Google built and demoed most of the functionality of the Vision Pro years ago. Apple has copied existing ideas with more expensive components. It’s ok that the newcomer presents a less complete experience, but it’s pretentious to call it a new product category.

Microtubules Framework: Testing Life and Evolution Principles
By
–
Microtubules yes, also in principle testable (however not clear how that would work in practice), but the framework itself goes much further and includes life and evolution.

Apple frame blending reduces camera noise improves color rendition
By
–
The image is not especially laggy. I guess that Apple is mixing the current frame with data from previous frames to reduce noise and improve color rendition from the cameras.

Passthrough Quality Issues in AR/VR Device Analysis
By
–
When you move your head, the passthrough image becomes blurry. Also, when you walk, there are tremors. Passthrough is better than on any other device, but text below 9pt is difficult to read.

Cognitive Limits: Human vs Artificial Intelligence and Mathematical Constraints
By
–
The cognitive abilities of the human mind are much more limited than artificial ones will be, but non-human minds cannot overcome constraints imposed by mathematics (eg. computing a result that depends on knowing the last digit of Pi).

Meta and Vision Pro advance facial capture in VR headsets
By
–
Neither is a fashion statement. But Meta pioneered the idea of recording your face under the headset and displaying your face without headset to your interaction partners in VR, and Vision Pro built an early version of that into the system (it can even show your tongue!).

ChatGPT Data Storage and Memory Capabilities Explained
By
–
ChatGPT stores data that allows it to recreate content of past interactions. That’s pretty much memory. Much more so than in the typical way people are already used to in the context of computing, when they buy a few GB of “computer memory”. Not sure what your beef is.
