Do you think Microsoft is being intentional in challenging google with their confident messaging, potentially forcing Google to misstep? Or is it a happy accident for them? Or is this another "funeral for the iPhone" moment lol?

Thank you for sharing your insight.

As someone who works in AI, what's your take on all the Bing vs. Google news lately?

For sure. As a normie who's just fascinated I know that I know very little about AI. I know there's nothing that could be considered "conscious" in any way in AI's current state, and a lot of it is not too far off from something like a hyper sophisticated Skyrim npc.

I know that something like that GPT can produce coding if it's asked to though, and that in some cases it's even produced some things that could serve as the basis for apps. If it's capable of producing contextual coding then i don't see how it could be too far off from doing things like "updating itself" on a software front

Thank you for your response.

I wasn't aware that AI was already open source to a large degree. Thank you for your response. How far away from an AI program that can maintain itself are we? i.e. can update itself and train itself without intervention. I apologize for any ignorance on my part. I'm just a normal that is fascinated.

Absolutely. It might only take one killer app hitting the market that is open source to change the landscape though, and I wonder if AI will make that more of a possibility.

Open AI is the company that develops chat GPT, it's software isn't open source though. Microsoft invested heavily into them in order to be able to use Open AI's technologies.

Edit: to the best of my knowledge

Fair enough. If you or someone can think of a better way to structure the question I'd love to either make another post or see it posted in a way that's worded better. I was just curious and typed my raw thoughts out.
