This is sad, actually, because this very technology is absolutely fantastic at identifying things in images. That's how image generation works behind the scenes!

esp32-cam identifying a cat, a bike, and a car in an image

ChatGPT screwed this up so badly because it's programmed to generate images instead of using reference images and then identifying the relevant parts. Which is something a tiny little microcontroller board can do.

If they just paid to license a data set of medical images... Oh wait! They already did that!

Sigh

    Yeah, I mean, this can be done with text too.

    People should mostly be using a RAG retrieval system, not pure LLM slop like this, for reference. It just hasn't really been made at scale because Google Search functioned as that well enough, and AI Bros seem to think everything should be done within LLM weights instead of proper databases.

    I mean... WTF. What if human minds were not allowed to use references?

    WolframAlpha was kinda trying to build this, but stalled.

    That's just the botanical definition of truck. Culinarily, a truck is a car.

    A bus is a truck?

    A car with a stowable seats and 4wd is a truck?

    Ive heard people refer to their 3 row SUVs as trucks, but i thought they were just being silly or commenting on the fact that the frame is basically truck. Didnt know, technically, its truck.

    How much of the public outcry against data collection has resulted in us getting an inferior product publicly.

    For images, it's not even data collection because all the images that are used for these AI image generation tools are out on the internet for free for anyone to download right now. That's how they're obtained: A huge database of (highly categorized) image URLs (e.g. ImageNET) is crawled/downloaded.

    That's not even remotely the same thing as "data collection". That's when a company vacuums everything they can from your private shit. Not that photo of an interesting building you uploaded to flickr over a decade ago.
