Title: GROK
Post by: AKIron on October 13, 2025, 02:21:37 PM
Free phone app. Will take a pic from your phone and turn it into a short video. By itself or you can give instructions. Number per day is limited but it is many. Truly amazing and a bit scary.

My first attempt at oil painting with the help of Bob Ross. I gave Grok the pic with no instructions.

Pic of me and my three brothers together a few days ago. I had Grok make us dancing. Then my daughter made us strippers. Looked too real. That's when I thought uh oh.

As opposed to using high end computers to play little children's flight sim games.

Yes..I am not trying to alter reality for anyone but me...

I am not playing for likes or views...

Several things wrong in the solo video grok made for me but it's gotten better fast. No doubt it will continue to get better until we cannot tell if it's real or memorex.

Tell me you’re ill-informed about artificial intelligence without telling me.

Try it out. Then think about what the AI did to make that video. It analyzed the picture. Seemingly "understanding" all the components and setting. Then projected what would happen and then created it. AI is learning about us and it's learning fast.

LoL.

Never waste time arguing with children or the senile.

Your time would be better spent teaching pigs to sing.  (Singing pig grok in 3...2...1...)

Whoa.  I'm freaking. 
At first it was speaking German.
Now it's speaking English but still has German CC.

You're messing with my reality!
Eagler warned me about people like you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's crazy. I didn't change it.

Seriously. I downloaded from Grok to icloud. The video in my icloud still speaks German. I uploaded from icloud to youtube.

Someone at youtube had to change the audio. Or there were two audio channels embedded in the video by Grok and youtube plays whichever it feels like.

I bet there is some new AI translate option in the video settings that is checked.
It just took a while for the background process to do it's work.

Quote
To use the YouTube auto-translate feature, first turn on captions (CC) and then go to the settings (gear icon) to select "Auto-translate" and choose your desired language. This works for both desktop and mobile, though mobile may have a more limited language selection. For creators, the "automatic dubbing" feature is a more advanced option for translating spoken audio, and you can also manually add translated titles and descriptions in YouTube Studio.

I think you must be right.

I just told Grok to say something in German. Guess he was letting off some steam.

Speaking of Grok... oh wait this guy is from Groq (Yeah, two AI companies with the same name.   :rofl), I thought this was a very interesting interview.

Wait until AI has access to quantum encryption/decryption. Electronic security will be a thing of the past.

Wait until they give it launch authority.  ;)

Deal with it.
AI is not going away.
AI can not be stopped at this point.
Master it or be the Egyptians showing up to battle with copper swords and the Hittites are swinging Bronze.
Within 5 years it will vastly alter human civilization. 

Ludditeism has never durably succeeded in human history.
There is only the forward path. 
Fix what ever you have to fix along the way, because it's happening.  Period.  Full stop.

BTW, be careful on how you interpret the "AI Bubble" talk.
AI companies are in a bubble.  The tech isn't. The tech is real and going to be fundamentally transformative.

When the auto was first introduced there were almost 2000 separate little car companies competing for the market.  That was a bubble.
Most of those vanished. 
The automobile didn't go anywhere.

Same with the internet bubble.  Many BS companies came and went.  The technology is here to stay.

I'd rather ride a bike than work most jobs for Azwhole CEO and drooling tarhd managers.

At least I could put my earbuds in an pedal without constant pointless interruptions to answers stupid questions that are frankly not worth acknowledging.

Would riding a bike all day listening to Led Zeppelin be worse than a j.o.b. in 2025?  If you can keep one?  :rofl

Rumors have been around for  while that OpenAI next platform is going to be true terminator level.

Keep you antenna up for any mention of Q* or Q-Star.

I got a feeling it is close to release.

Only a couple of times. I found it easy to recover and from stalls.

With Q* AI will be making new, frontier discoveries in science and physics.  Full reasoning capability.

We are talking greenfield discoveries, not merely regurgitating known information.
