Huh? Multimodal is coming later this year (like I said in my last comment).
They have had on device Gen AI running on Pixel phones in production since last year.

Gemini Nano. It’s in Pixel Recorder and Gboard but multimodal capabilities are coming soon. It’s very limited to a couple phones and not many companies outside of Google have access, but it has been used in production since last year.
Apple does not have on device AI in production today. Microsoft’s “Copilot+PCs” launched less than 2 weeks ago, but are significantly more powerful machines.
Ironically Google is kind of the only one actually doing on device AI.
This feature seems entirely pointless, especially for this device (which should just be called the Pixel Fold 2).
Since the device is basically square (resolution 2,076 x 2,152) why would you not just rotate 90 degrees to change the side by side to top bottom like we can today?
Because people don’t understand the difference between using ChatGPT running in a datacenter somewhere via API calls and having a tiny model actually running on device.
Even quantized down to 4bit the best 7B models barely run locally on the best mobile hardware that exists today. GPT4 is ~250x larger than that 7B model lol
Yeah, I like the camera bump on my Pixel Fold since it shouldn’t go all the way across the back and is still square-ish. These are similar but worse. Pixel 6 was peak design IMO.
This shouldn’t surprise anyone. The vast majority of their efforts have to be going into the fully custom (TSMC) G5 for next year.
Casting from your phone is occasionally convenient but for everyday TV/movie watching it’s way more clunky than Android TV. And you can’t really browse for something to watch together with someone else on a phone.
In case you didn’t know they released an Android TV app over a year ago.
I’m a YouTube premium subscriber with Adguard Home and haven’t noticed anything slow.
Yes. I went to my first Google I/O 10 years ago and my second today.
2014: Introduced Android L, Android Wear, Android TV and Android Auto.
2024: Gemini Nano… still not publicly available to app developers. 💀
How exactly is AOSP not FOSS and debloated?
Kinda hard to take any of this seriously with those claims…
Yes, worst clickbait title I’ve seen in a while. Health Connect was announced 2 years ago…
I’m in California and it’s been years since I’ve been somewhere that didn’t have Apple/Google Pay at the register. I don’t shop there but Walmart is the only place I know of that doesn’t have it (because they track users via credit card).
The only real annoying thing here is that restaurants still take your card instead of bringing the machine to your table like they do in Canada and Europe.
Not to be a dick, but how/why is that useful? It’s not a package I need to physically go get or something. It’s deposited into an account (super fast if you do your taxes early). This also assumes I’m getting a refund.
Like 50-70% of places still don’t have tap to pay.
Out of curiosity, what country is this?
Couldn’t agree more. I forgot to mention that the M7 also just looked better.
I think so. My partner, a couple friends and I all had them and none of us had the issue though.
I don’t really get why the M8 is remembered so fondly but the M7 isn’t.
Is it just that way more people bought the M8? The M7 was truly innovative and the M8 was only a small iteration on top.
Uh huh… The Oxford definition literally says that’s untue.
