Google Chrome for Mac Gets Generative AI Features

[Analog Kid]

When will we get AI on toilet paper?

This will have to wait for whatever the opposite is of generative arrives.

I seem to recall the invention of a toilet that would scan your waste and try to diagnose any health issues. Whatever came of that?

Duke smart toilet flushes away poop but leaves valuable health information behind

Phones track our steps. Scales track our weight. Could toilets track our gut strength?

The definition of the singularity will be when AI scrapes the internet for training data which is full of AI generated content.

Only if you need help writing. Oh wait ...

Thanks but I'd rather use Edge. Far Better AI and compatibility with Chrome Extensions.

In fact the Copilot App for iPadOS also works on Mac so you may not even need a separate browser for AI.

Are you kidding me, Bing search is so overstuffed with AI summaries and similar content on the rightmost side, in that row of quotes, with the summary at the top, and Bing AI one accidental upwards mouse scroll away. I only use Edge for school assessments when I need help finding relevant articles and summarising lengthy documents.

That already happened. AI image generators began scraping their own hideous work and created even more monstrous work. The tech bros began scrambling to help their midjoruney or whatever to tell AI from human art, just as human artists had been doing. Suddenly they supported #NoAI tagging.

It'll work great in the beginning and then turn to sh*t after a few years. Just like gmail spam filtering.

You could get a Toto toilet. That's about as AI as things get with seat warming and fancy bidet features, but in the future it might be able to detect when you're done and activate the bidet automatically.

It may be just me, but I’m getting tired of seeing AI tagged into anything and everything.

I’m sure toilets with AI will be a thing soon 😆

oh, it's only a few updates away...

Kohler's new bidet seat costs over $2,100 and raises the question: Would you talk to your toilet seat?

You can now upgrade your regular toilet to a smart one with Kohler's luxury bidet seat.

Have you tried the new Copilot app from Microsoft? It works on all smartphones and the iPad version also works on mac.

I'm glad I dropped Chrome in favor of Firefox

You must be the smart fella

If stone age means no AI in Safari, then I'm happy to be there.

This autumn I know you’ll say the opposite

 

[WarmWinterHat]

Sure....

I don't use any of the current flavors of AI, from anyone. I also primarily use Firefox.

 

[bousozoku]

And Safari is still stuck in the Stone Age

Don't worry. There always seem to be security holes, so someone else can make Safari do things that you aren't expecting.

I doubt these changes will make Chrome better but the whole Co-Pilot things on Windows has made Edge suck more. I'm glad to use Firefox.

If Siri becomes really useful, I'll be impressed.

Pun intended but HOLY SH|T have I been spoiled by a Toto.

Knowing how nice the seat will feel when the lid auto raises upon detecting me walk into the room?

I did not use AI to generate the typical discussion going on within the walls of Google for the past 12 months:

Product Management: "AI! AI! We need to incorporate AI into our product!"
Engineers: "Ummm...sure. But what is the use case?"
Product Management: "It doesn't matter. We need to say we're using AI! Give me something...anything!"
Engineers: "Okkkayyyy....so like, a chat interface to discuss and refine search results for content on a page?"
Product Management: "No, that would mean interacting with the Search team, and we all know that integrating with Other Google Services (OGS) doesn't lead to promotion. We have to invent something entirely in-house, Services Hosted Internally by the Team (****). **** always floats to the top at Google!"
Unreliable Brown-nosing Engineer that the rest of the team has come to ignore but is hell-bent on moving into management: "Lets use AI to completely replace the user!"
Product Management: "GENIUS!"

Do you really think that precisely the same AI frenzy isn't happening at Apple?

 

[Sheepish-Lord]

its like it does but not properly I dont use it because of that its not as smooth as safari

Yeah, it’s weird. I don’t think any of the other browsers have smooth scrolling as they all seem to have micro-stutters vs Safari. No idea why.

 

[hegedusa]

Oh gods why do people want computers to write for them. Writing is one of the basic forms of human expression! Soon you'll be reading forum posts and such and you won't even be sure a person wrote it.

Technology like AI writing tools are indeed powerful, but they don't replace human creativity and expression. They're tools to aid, inspire, or streamline tasks. The value of human touch in writing remains unique and irreplaceable.

Let's hope they didn't train the model on MacRumours' negative, snarky, upvoted first-posts.
