There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.

Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

ChatGPT started as a text-only generative AI but received voice and image input capabilities in September.

Usually, it’s the Google Assistant with system-wide availability in Android, but that’s not special home cooking from Google—it all happens via public APIs that technically any app can plug into.

The assistant APIs are designed to be powerful, keeping some parts of the app running 24/7 no matter where you are.

Rahman found that ChatGPT version 1.2023.352, released last month, included a new activity named “com.openai.voice.assistant.AssistantActivity.”

As with Bixby and Alexa, there are no good apps to host your notes, reminders, calendar entries, shopping list items, or any other input-based functions you might want to do.

It’s also reportedly working on a different assistant, “Pixie,” which would apparently launch with the Pixel 9, but that will be near the end of 2024.

The original article contains 419 words, the summary contains 137 words. Saved 67%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

The only thing I want it to do is use simple context when searching something for me. If I have a sports event in my calendar, tickets saved to my wallet, and I say “Hey Google, what time does the {team} match start today?”, it currently gives me a garbage answer linking to a Reddit post where someone asked that a year ago or something. The ecosystem already understands the info I want in this situation, they have all the data points, theres no sophisticated logic required to connect them. But Google Assistant can’t do it, making it pretty useless other than for setting alarms and stuff. If your question isn’t on the list of discrete preprogrammed functions then it just searches what you asked, which for my case should actually be “'{team} fixtures” or something. So it’s often faster to just search manually in the first instance rather than trying to learn the obfuscated scope of what Google assistant can actually do.

I’ve found the bing AI with ChatGPT 4 is really good at stuff like this.

I just asked when my team’s next football match is. It gave me the time/date location who they are playing and sourced its answer.

It’s a genius combination. Uses ChatGPT to compile a query and then feeds it the results back.

I basically use it as a search engine now since you have the sources there.

There’s nothing genius about this. Google Assistant can do the same thing if you give it the appropriate prompt. Sometimes it does and sometimes it just says “sorry I can’t help with that” and sometimes it just doesn’t respond at all.

An actually useful assistant would use context from what it knows about you (like that you purchased tickets for a specific game) and reply accordingly with a very basic prompt.

That’s what separates a personal assistant from a search engine.

That’s pretty cool! But hell, I bet even Siri could do it. My gripes are with the google VA in its current state. I can’t just call out “Hey Bing” and get an answer from my phone unfortunately

I’ll be excited when ChatGPT can set reminders, create events, send messages, send emails, etc.

Basically when we get a Google Assistant that actually works.

Or, you know, use neither.

I’d have to use googie ass-asstant first and that’s not gonna happen, so…
