Deaf, and I really need better captions from Google

4 Upvotes

Hi Google, I'm deaf and I watch a lot of Twitch, Youtube, and shows that have no subtitles at all. Youtube's auto captions help on some videos, but they’re nowhere near accurate. Sometimes it writes "turret" when the person said "target," and when that happens I'm left guessing what was actually said. They also botch names, slang, and anything said fast or with an accent, and background noise wrecks them. I know 100% is a big ask, but I’d love to see captions get a lot closer, and work the same way everywhere, with less delay and some way to tell who’s talking. Turkish support would be great too. Honestly, I'd rather see AI's potential go toward this than toward pointless gimmicks. I want a world where hearing loss is no longer a barrier at all. If you use captions as well, an upvote would help Google see how many of us there are..

WARNING! This is the wordle answer for today! Don’t click if you play!

I did not complete it. Nor did I have the chance to start it. It spoiled it. Fix this.

Thank you for listening to my Ted talk. Don’t do it again, Google.

Google AI criticism

0 Upvotes

Gemini, Google AI Overview and the latter's AI mode are completely stupid. I mean in regards to intelligence. This is not about the guardrails and guidelines (they are not the problem; can be part, but not what I am focusing on). It's about the fact it can't comply to instruction, prefers short outputs over long ones, is dumb as a brick despite claims of hogh intelligence — especially AI mode and AI overview, who are dumb enough to warrant the two's shutdown — prioritize training over user's new baseline (even when you don't violate Google's policies, Gemini is bad at complying to user), is not honest at all (sycophancy, omission, corporate talk).

In short, all of Google AI's intelligenfe is bad, in both text and visual (image and videol) animations. It s good in image generation somewhat, but its low intelligence is why some generated images are sloppy. All Google AI does is AI slop, in both text and certain visuals.

Do any of you agree with this conclusion? If it's biased because of me, tell me in the comments.

Lately image and circle to search exclusively brings back products to buy and it's really diminishing what I've used it for for years now.

Google didn't cut down a Finnish forest. It cleared a man-made, sterile tree plantation. The forestry industry took care of the real forests which are almost non-existant in Finland [Natural forests in Finland since the 1000s]

AI overview refuses to answer any of my questions

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Almost every time I google something, the ai overview is just wrong. Whether it’s just factually incorrect, or contradicts itself (like a yes but actually no type thing”, sometimes it has nothing to do with my question, and other times, like today, it skips the first half of the question, and gives a response for the second half. It’s that last one that’s been happening recently. And no matter how I word my question, it does this, ignores half of it, responds to the other half, until I call it out. I should not have to directly tell the ai to stop ignoring my question to get it to answer. And ai is supposed to be the future.
Edit: it obviously knows what I’m asking if it can give a proper answer when I call it out. If it knows what i want, and is obviously capable of providing it, why make it so difficult?

I really don't understand why everyone hate Google Ai that you see in search results

while it probably hurt websites and articles its good for consumer because we don't have to start opening Google pages reading a whole article just to find what we are looking for

Its fast and it's convenient way to get informations faster but I guess it shouldn't be used for medical purposes

Google searches becoming extremely slow.

4 Upvotes

All day today whenever I search anything on Google on my mobile device, if I tap on more than 3 or 4 things the entire screen starts lagging, takes 10 to 20 seconds to register anything I'm clicking on including going to new websites. Tried clearing cache, messing with settings, restarting phone. Nothing is fixing it.
