How are companies SO bad at seeeling AI to us? (And how to fix it)

BigEvilCoβ„’ has so much moni πŸ’°, so many marketing employees πŸ§‘β€πŸ€β€πŸ§‘ and so many smart engenieers... how can they not create useful AI functionalities, which is not just a chatbot?

currently LLMs are mostly known for runing the internet and not being able to count letters πŸ“ and embedding models are rarely used for anything but RAG

like -.,.-.. LLMs and embedding models have so many potential applications: πŸ“‘

  • user asks for setting, LLM and embedding model go through all the settings and show you the settings you want βš™
  • give a VLM an image u like and ask "heyo customize the theme to fit those vibes" and it should filter the colors and assign them to the interface theme 🌈
  • better search functionality with embedding models! combine that with keyword search and you get a robust but flexible search, which finds what you mean and typeπŸ“°
  • typing improvement hints like in microsofts word. just put a lil green squiggle. right click and see what an LLM would suggest to write otherwise. Could be great for quick brainstorming and then formalizing βœ…
  • just in general - interfaces could be improved so much with smol LLMs like the 1.5B Qwen models with smol helps like this πŸ¦†

i believe showing peeps how LLMs and embedding models can be truly useful in quick situations like this is a good idea. it shows that they are not just chatbots, but can actually, for real this time speed up what you want to do.

adding new features into existing interfaces makes them easy to use. adding a whole new panel specifically for your new chatbot just takes away space, needed for lists and controls

I hate most current AI features

i hate dum ai popups whenever i see one. but i like, when i right click on something, to be presented with "copy", "select all" aswell as "summarize".

right now, it's hard not to hate AI in general without looking at medical applications. πŸ‘©β€βš•οΈ

Let's change this!

  • disable googles "AI overview" by default, and run that with a dedicated button for it. then show EXACTLY where the info comes from right in the response (also saves them money btw) πŸ’Έ
  • remove the "generate responses" option in youtube comments and move that into the hamburger menu (takes up less space) πŸŸ₯
  • add "order by importance" button to search results using embedding models and semantic-distance-calculations πŸ”Ž

let's stop making AI this "fancy new thing" and more of "just another tool" ✨
let's make it compact and specialized instead of bulky and expensive πŸ’Έ
let's get AI out of peoples view but into peoples lives 🌍
let's make people actually want to use AI tools and not force it onto their screen πŸ–₯️
let's start small and build up from there
let's stop creating agents, while LLMs still hallucinate new tools they don't have access to 🧠

and for the love of god

Let's mark AI generated content

(this text was human-written btw. it might kinda look generated, but noooooo im a real human, trust me)
