Did you see this coming?

Before chat GPT released to the public I was clueless. I had no idea how far AI technology had come and how close we were to it totally taking over like the internet did. Before 2023, were any of you expecting this? Was there some indicators or was it totally out of the blue? Did OpenAI keep all this secret? submitted by /u/JCas127 [link] [comments]

Apple researchers develop AI that can ‘see’ and understand screen context

Apple researchers have developed an AI system called ReALM that can understand screen context and ambiguous references, improving interactions with voice assistants. ReALM reconstructs the screen using parsed on-screen entities to generate a textual representation, outperforming GPT-4. Apple is investing in making Siri more conversant and context-aware through this research. However, automated parsing of screens has limitations, especially with complex visual references. Apple is catching up in AI research but faces stiff competition from tech rivals like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and OpenAI.
