🚨 WARNING: Google is trying to force you into using #Gemini AI on Android in #Gmail, #WhatsApp & other apps - hijacking your data for "AI training"

This is opted in by default – so check your Settings to opt out.

Here’s how: 👉 tuta.com/blog/how-to-disable-g…


Fun with #AI:
I have a spreadsheet containing assignees, with various values on each line. I needed to calculate the sum of certain values for one assignee. This would normally be a simple query in #LibreOffice, but let's try using AI instead. I uploaded the spreadsheet to #GoogleSheets and entered a simple prompt in #Gemini: 'Give me the sum of XY values for assignee "name"' No result.
So I tried a more algorithmic prompt: 'Go through each line, and if the value in column XX is "name", count the value in column XY to the sum, and give me the total sum for all lines'.
The result? 150.
That's nice, but the simple query in LibreOffice gave me 27, which was the correct answer.

No matter how much I try, Gemini is completely useless in Google Sheets.

auf welchen #Google #Android
#Smartphones ist #Gemini den vorinstalliert ??

auf allen, außer den Custom ROMs ??

Ergänzung, habe Ich über flogen...

,, Wenn Sie nicht Googles Android, sondern Alternativen verwenden, ist das Risiko von fragwürdigen Updates wie diesem nahe null. ,,


I tried it. It's got a long way to go before prime time. Not sure if it's due to limits set by #Gemini or what. But, Yes, you can tab through the elements, but not much else. Plus, it seems to take over windows when that screen is in view, to where I can't alt tab or anything until I close this app out. This after generating what's on the screen. Can't even use jaws navigation keys.


🤯 OMG! Someone just posted on Reddit bragging how he fed 13 MILLION records to Gemini to clean up. What records? "mostly dead scrambled data institutions, college, student records, course materials, research datasets. Used Gemini for cleaning, deduping, and organizing. Super useful for universities, EdTech, and students handling large study resources." #FERPA #Privacy #HigherEd #EdTech #Google #Gemini reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/commen…


The Gemini protocol is a lightweight alternative to HTTP positioned as a spiritual successor to Gopher. One drawback is that without reuse of TCP connections, every navigation takes several seconds on geostationary satellite Internet.

One of the selling points of Google’s flagship generative AI models, Gemini 1.5 Pro and 1.5 Flash, is the amount of data they can supposedly process and analyze. But new research suggests that the models aren’t, in fact, very good at those things. “While models like Gemini 1.5 Pro can technically process long contexts, we have seen many cases indicating that the models don’t actually ‘understand’ the content,” Marzena Karpinska, a postdoc at UMass Amherst.

On Tech Talk this week, I had a great conversation with Troy Otilio from @AiraVI about their new Access AI feature, which has recently been released as a beta in the Aira Explorer app. We spoke about where this feature came from, the impact the use of AI has on privacy, and so much more about AI and Aira in general.

On Sunday 25 February 2024 I have to change the certificates of my Gemini capsule. You can accept those new certs (despite the red warning popup in your gemini browser), there is nothing suspicious going on. This is because of a server change from gmid to gemserv by int80h.

Here is an article going into more detail:

Boost appreciated!

I closed the #gemini PR for #curl just now with no action, but I'm encouraging a new one to get filed later on when ready for the next step: github.com/curl/curl/pull/1117…

I've put together a survey about the Small Internet (#gopher, #gemini, individual webpages, small community sites) and I would love your input. If you are a small internet user, please spend a few minutes and fill in your thoughts. I'm especially interested in the open response questions. This will help inform an upcoming conference talk I'll be giving at mch2022.org

Also, please boost this on fedi as much as possible and feel free to re-share on other social networks and in other communities. The more responses the better.

Gemini markup (#gemtext) is also being used creatively in other ways, such as the #lichen project to build websites.

This clearly llustrates how thoughtful design can result a nice user experience: lichen.sensorstation.co/

#gemini #programming #C
I'm creating a new Gemini browser in C with Ncurses, named (very creatively) Gemcurses.

It's actually my first project in C, so my code is messy and I'm sure it has a ton of bugs, but it somewhat works!

It requires only Ncurses and OpenSSL libraries.

Feel free to check it out, and tell me what you think and what i need to fix/change/add :)

Since I write my blog posts in the gemtext format (before HTML conversion), I find them more readable. No inline links avoid hidden links within a text.

Gemtext is the format of the Gemini protocol, like HTML is the format for http protocol.

What is the #Gemini protocol? Here is a good explanation and introduction geminiquickst.art/


Now that I'm on a new instance, I'll write a new #introduction.

I am a follower of Jesus, mutualist hobbyist programmer, and sysadmin (in that order). I'm passionate about #CooperativeTechnology, #smalltech, and liberating people all around within and without technology.

I'm interested in alternative internet protocols (#Gemini), mobile Linux, real sustainability, and various computer languages (including #Rust and #Zig).
