If you read the article, you'll see that they did in fact meet the full requirements by August 2021. The EAU plus criteria were met quickly, but they did meet every criteria normally used.
I feel like the song suggestions also vary depending on the music service. For example the other day, "Play cicada by Igor" got me Cicadidae by Igorrr on YT Music (this is what I wanted), but got me Igor's Theme by Tyler the Creator.
????
So I tried "Play cicadidae by I-G-O-R-R-R" and I got Cicada by Good Kid.
That said I feel like no matter the music service it's a 50/50 shot each time if it plays the song I want. No matter how many times before I've played it or asked for it.
The latest Gemini update for Android Auto also absolutely ruined the voice control for Waze. It was already bad, but now Android Auto is basically unusable by voice.
It's unclear to me why I'd want to use this over libcaca or similar? The demoscene has made really excellent ASCII rendering for decades, and this seems like it has less options and less understandable output.
If this is just a fun personal project "just because" then cool! That's awesome! But for actual use cases I'd much rather use libcaca.
Considering YouTube's current level of detection of absolutely anything, this will likely be an absolute disaster with no way of appealing to a real human.
Alexa+ has been a massive downgrade for me. It's extremely laggy and constantly misunderstands me, whereas the old one never did. "Set a timer for 20 minutes" used to be instant and just work, I did this the other day and it took 10 seconds to respond and set a timer for 10 minutes.
Just because I've dealt with this exact issue in the past, it may have been a 30fps vs 29.97fps issue. For me the audio was a fixed length, but the frame rate was SLIGHTLY too fast. The problem can manifest as either too slow or too fast depending on which side is expecting 30fps vs 29.97fps.
This reads like they don't want AI, they just want tooling. More, better tooling. AI is just a scapegoat/easy out for writing more tooling that makes them more efficient.
Check your local library, a lot of them have one and can help you get started. It's usually pennies to print too. I printed an adapter for my coffee grinder at my local library a few weeks ago and it took 2 days and cost me $4. Fantastic stuff.
The last time they "innovated" on macbooks we got a touch bar (ignoring M chips). I'm good with incremental improvements if we can avoid those gigantic blunders.
I've got the same problem with a hyphenated name, and it was always the way they phrased the error messages that annoyed me. Porter Airline's error message for the longest time was "Your Name is Invalid". No, my name is valid, your system doesn't support it.
I ended up having to contact their support quite a few times for them to fix the error message. Still doesn't work, but at least the error message is reasonable now.
I love seeing the codegen output, makes it easy to understand the issue, but claiming that it's faster or slower without actual benchmarks is a bit disappointing.
