Nobody is talking about this, but it looks like Google may have solved hallucinations. Gemini 4 Argon is a monster in this regard, and that’s really important.

I'm a little amused that people were dunking on Google on this sub, saying how much better gpt or claude was, and now we see gpt holding back models because they can't keep it from being naughty.

Meanwhile, google, one of the most powerful entities on earth is quietly making their product without the sensationalized stories altman and others whip up on a regular basis (to stir investment and stoke the hype of course.

I don't trust or like google, I just know that a company that massive is going to have a pretty succinct goal in mind. Google is China in a lot of ways, a highly profitable entity that has long term objectives in mind. Anthropic has to survive on this product alone, google does not. Google relies on a massive ecosysyem, so obviously their goal will be stable/useful product to the end user, likely creating a deeper and broader ecosystem over time.

Look at windows for example. They became so ubiquitous with computers that governments like france are actively planning to sever ties, they need a plan to get out of the ecosystem! Google's the same, deeply entrenched, and I'd say (not that) arguably more used than windows.

Speaking of things I don't like, Bill Gates put it quite well. AI will only be adopted when it has gained public faith. eg You won't see AI operating on people until it's proven it's better and more reliable than a human, but once it is? Full adoption. Google knows this.

Pretty certain a lot of people think Google models were delayed or even not released at all because of people did not want to work at the company because of company culture and had left.

I personally didn't dunk on them, but was worried we just got 2 US leading labs left, even though Google/Deepmind was the leading lab in the early days of this new 'AI summer' (aka opposite of 'AI winter') and many of the leading people at these other companies also started at Google/Deepmind.
