I wonder if Bard can plain watch you. Like you consent to have Bard use your webcam the entirety of the time its open and even if you detoggle or choose to disable and de-permission it explicitly. What a time to be watched and tracked perpetually alive 🧞♂️
I think Google and other companies would like that. Particularly to watch your eyes and see what draws your attention on the page. For the ads, obviously. Because we live in the worst timeline.
Oooh, I see what you mean, just found it. Would be cool if it allowed for more granular control though, so it would prompt to enable access just for the app you want to use, and not globally
No, you have to read a text summary of at least two ads before it gives you a text summary of the video. And the text summary of the video is broken up with other text summaries of ads.
Oh cool, just tested with !sumk on random YouTube share link in Safari on iOS and it worked like a champ.
Even when I asked about how to do this in the Kagi discord channel I didn’t get this answer, so thanks! To everyone else, check out Kagi, it’s awesome :)

On that note, can phones bring proper borders back? Damn hole-punch cameras make it unnecessearly hard to cover them up
Bezel = Life
android now lets you disable the camera on an OS level. Not quite as good as hardware, but close.
Is this new with Android 14?
No it’s been around for a couple of years
Do you mean the sensors toogle that you can enable from the developer options?
Or is there actually a separate feature for this?
No a seperate feature. It should be in your quick toggles but may depend on your oem

A boring panopticon
Talk dirty to me, Big Brother
Video Essayists may get destroyed from this.
Then it can watch the fucking ads for me.
Soon enough, the AI will be able to kill us and live our lives for us.
If its really intelligent it will know better and just leave us to suffer
There’s a good chance if it’s really intelligent it will act to enhance our suffering. Like we do to lesser intelligent beings for some reason
I have no mouth and I must scream
Anyone can already summarize YouTube videos: https://www.summarize.tech/
Can it block the ads on YouTube?
No, you have to read a text summary of at least two ads before it gives you a text summary of the video. And the text summary of the video is broken up with other text summaries of ads.
Ublock Origin can. It’s available for Firefox on Android. No similar options for iOS or TV apps that I know of, though.
I use UYouPlusExtra on iOS. Side loaded with SideStore (no jailbreak)
If TV uses android (for example fire stick) you can use https://github.com/yuliskov/smarttube
Also not on iOS but android you have ReVanced: https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/blob/main/docs/README.md
With Android you also can use Firefox, where you can install uBO.
But can it watch videos with me? 🥺
and if they make it beautiful , make it wear a lot of makeup, skimpy clothes and heels then fuck yeaahhh I am down to netflix and chill
Would be great if it can watch a video and generate timestamps for me to skip to specific sections.
Just use https://www.summarize.tech/, and if the transcript is too long, send it to a summarize like Kagi.
removed by mod
It’s going to devolve into the ai telling you “good,” “bad,” “very good,” or “very bad” for everything and you won’t even need to watch it.
Holy shit, this is a hilarious idea but also terrifying.
Kagi can summarize YouTube videos directly.
Oh cool, just tested with !sumk on random YouTube share link in Safari on iOS and it worked like a champ.
