> Who holds their phone up and takes a photo then wants to know it was a photo of? That’s weird. If you don’t know what it is, wtf did you take photo?

OpenAI’s example included bike repair and toolkit choice

Allot of people could use this even if they aren’t right now

Don’t be ridiculous.

They’ll use YouTube, just like they do right now. Maybe if it could watch the video, then step you through it step by step. …but it cant, with what they’ve actually released here.

Oh whatever. If I’m wrong, I’m wrong. Time will tell.

the best case scenario is a 30 second youtube video with an ad that lasts 15 seconds followed by a 2 minute ad that I can skip in 5 more seconds

and ad block doesn't work on mobile

if you have a case that wasn't covered by that video? you have to go to another or continue searching all while wishing you could just talk to someone about it. if you don't know the word for what you're looking for, all the search engines lack utility.

ChatGPT4 with image recognition and conversation solves all of that use case and people already use it, so now they'll just start sending it pictures from the phone already in their hand that they're already using to chat with

there are plenty of times over the last year that would have been useful for me. plenty of times over the last year I just didn't continue being interested in that problem

it just seems kind of…. late ?… for that “dont be ridiculous” reaction. classic dropbox moment
