You're reinforcing the disparity that I'm pointing out in my original reply. My expectations for AI are calibrated by the people selling it. You say "AI progress is very fast" but again, I'm not seeing it. I'm seeing the same things I saw years ago when ChatGPT first came on the scene. If you go back to the hype of those days, they were saying "Things will change so rapidly now that AI is here, we will start seeing exponential gains in what we can accomplish."

They would point to the increasing model sizes and the ability to solve various benchmarks as proof of that exponential rise, but things have really tapered off since then in terms of how rapidly things are changing. I was promised a Ph.D. level researcher. A 20% better result on your OCR is not that. That's not to say it's a good thing and an improvement, but it's not what they are selling.

What does that even mean? That's just more hype and marketing.

Nope not marketing. I researched this topic myself. I'm not aware that Nvidia mentioned this.

But hey it seems I can't convince you of my enthusiasm regarding ai. It's fine I still will play around with it often and looking forward to it's progress.

Regarding your researcher: NotebookLM is great and you might need to invest a few hundred bucks to really try out more.

We will see anyway we're it's going

Your enthusiasm for AI is just more hype noise as far as I'm concerned. You say you've "done research" but then don't link it for anyone to look into, adding to the hype. Brain compute performance is not a well-understood topic so saying some product approaches it is pure marketing hype. It's akin to saying the brain is a neural net.
