Thrilled to kick off the Gemini 2.0 era with Gemini 2.0 Flash, an update to our workhorse model that outperforms even 1.5 Pro at twice the speed. It has really great multilingual skills, and can natively call tools, like Google Search. It’s the first release in the Gemini 2.0…

"When will #AI surpass humans?" 🤔At what, though? ...Pen and paper has had a better memory than you this whole time. That's the point of tools. We don't use a tool unless it's better than us at something. All tools are better than us, that's how this works. AI is a tool too.

Indian websites went way overboard with OTP. You verify when you register, you verify when you login and you verify whenever you do any action. Sigh!

Mr Young will soon discover that the more umbrellas people buy in a city, the more it will rain there. Let's blame umbrella manufacturers for the rain. Some people are stupid; some are both execrable and stupid, not a good combination. h/t @mpawlo

The world's known loudest sound. When the Krakatoa volcano erupted in 1883, the sound of the explosion was so loud that it ruptured the eardrums of people 40 miles away, traveled around the world four times, and was clearly heard from 5,000 km away buff.ly/1rOmT8F

I’ve seen various (very valid) critiques of the “20,000 uses of an organic cotton bag to equal a plastic bag” stat over the last few days. I’ve updated our chart at @OurWorldInData to provide more nuance to these numbers 👇 What’s going on? A short thread 🧵
