Gemini ... The world's first genAI browsing tool

Last update: Saturday 7/26/25

In a recent note on this blog we ranked the three leading chatbots -- ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini -- with regards to 8 basic functions.

The Anthropic tortoise and the Google hare

Last update: Friday 7/11/25

Friday 7/4/25

Your interactions with chatbots, agents, and other AI apps reveal how you really think, especially as these apps become more conversational. Knowing how you really think will enable advertisers to design sales pitches that emphasize features that you are most likely to find appealing in their efforts to persuade you to buy their products and services. These revelations can also enable intrusive government agencies and insurance companies to become even more intrusive. 

Big Tech companies compile insights about you -- which they derive from your interactions with their cloud-based, large language models -- into encyclopedic profiles. They sell access to these profiles to the highest bidders. An obvious and powerful way to substantially reduce these intrusions is to redirect a substantial portion of your queries away from Big Tech's clouds ... Click HERE to read more
