Google's new flagship AI model, "Gemini," is set to be a direct competitor to GPT-4 and boasts computing power 5 times that of GPT-4.
Trained on Google's TPUv5 chips, it's capable of simultaneous operations with a massive 16,384 chips. The dataset used for training this model is around 65 trillion tokens, and it's multi-modal, accepting text, video, audio, and pictures. Moreover, it can produce both text and images. The training also included content from YouTube and used advanced training techniques similar to "AlphaGo-type" methods.
Google plans to release the Gemini model to the public in December 2023.
I think I'm 10x as successful right now as I would be if I hadn't gotten married at 26 and been in a serious relationship starting at 22.
I was able to take bigger risks because she was earning. We were a team. I had her support.
Getting married is underrated.

Which square do you see most clearly: orange or yellow?
Normally yellow is the most visible colour: it grabs our attention and we can see it from far away.
Hence warning signs, high-vis jackets, road markings, police tape, school buses, and taxis are almost always yellow.
But yellow isn't always the most visible colour. See, orange is *more visible* in one specific context: when it is contrasted with blue.
That's because orange and blue are complementary colours. This means that, when mixed, they cancel each other out. But, when placed alongside one another, they create a powerful, luminous, highly visible contrast.
And this fact is important because... lots of the world is blue: the sky and the ocean.
Hence lifeboats and lifebuoys and liferafts all around the world are orange — rather than yellow, the usual colour of safety equipment. If you pay attention, you'll notice that most objects relating to safety and caution around the ocean are, indeed, orange.
It's why the Golden Gate Bridge was painted orange — a particular shade which has come to be known as "International Orange" — so that it would stand out more clearly against the water and in heavy fog.
And it's also why astronauts wear orange suits during lift-off and ascent, and when they return to Earth; this makes them much easier to spot if they land in the ocean.
The "black box" recording device in aeroplanes is not actually black; they are legally required to be painted bright orange because that makes them much easier to find when planes go down over water.
The fact that orange and blue are complementary colours was also exploited by the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists of the late 19th century.
Think of Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night or Café Terrace at Night, in which he contrasted oranges and blues to create his famously vivid swirls of colour and light.
Claude Monet, too, in his paintings of Haystacks and of Venice, frequently used the complementary contrast between orange and blue because of the clarity and luminosity they produced.
Many things in the world are a coincidence, but the fact that lifeboats, space suits, the paintings of Vincent van Gogh, and the Golden Gate Bridge are all orange is not one of them.
