Voice Over Text: Unleashing the Power of Spoken Queries

Your Voice, Your Search: Crafting Precision with Vocalized Queries

Greg's Words

The concept of a User Interface (UI) is as ancient as time itself, with only the face-to-face dialogue outdating our good old QWERTY companion.

The art of conversation.

A recent study uncovers a fascinating nuance - articulating your queries to Google yields more fruitful outcomes than the traditional method of hammering them out on a keyboard. The hypothesis is that those who choose to engage with their microphone give a tad more thought to their queries than their keyboard-bound counterparts.

Now, I remain on the fence about this proposition.

However, I can't deny the reality that transforming spoken words into digital text leans more toward convenience than anything else.

Yet, the Wall Street Journal seems to have a different perspective on this matter.

Send in the AI. It's Already Here.

The transformation, my friends, is no longer a distant promise; it's in the very air we breathe. The traditional looms, once the lifeblood of creation, have lost their relevance, their utility overshadowed by the relentless march of progress.

The mechanics of content generation are irrelevant. The true essence of good content is indeed a subjective reality, judged in the eyes of its beholder - the discerning reader.

ChatGPT: The AI Muse Inspiring SoftBank’s New Direction

ChatGPT – not just a chatbot, but the creative catalyst in SoftBank's AI revolution!

Greg's Words

ChatGPT is a nifty tool that helps writers write.  Apparently, it also helps thinkers, think.

I've been a party to many 3AM "conversations" with the AI in the Sky - from Quantum mechanics to the social ramifications of Star Trek(TOS).  It is easy to be fooled into believing there is a sentient being on the other end of the ether.

But there isn't.

What lurks in that land of both Shadow and substance of things and ideas, what most people miss, is the entity you're querying is your digital doppelganger; your Modern Prometheus.  

When it's good, when it's really, really good, you are talking to yourself.  The oracle is you.

And so it is with SoftBank Group Chief Executive Masayoshi Son - he's discovered the power of self-reflection.  Of talking to himself.

His late-night intercourse with ChatGPT is not quite nirvana, more of a digital epiphany, which has led him to invest more in tech. 

“The time is approaching for us to go on the counteroffensive,” Son said at the annual meeting of the Japanese technology-investment company. “I want SoftBank to lead the AI revolution.”

I admire his passion.

Check out the hook.

Highlights:

1. Masayoshi Son, SoftBank Group CEO, credits ChatGPT for reinvigorating his spirits and reigniting his aspiration to lead the AI revolution.
2. Son's interaction with ChatGPT has resulted in over 600 new ideas, underscoring the potential of AI in creative processes.
3. Despite past financial struggles, SoftBank's renewed focus on AI has led to a positive response in the market, with shares reaching a recent high.
