  • Ubuntu Touch is not even that up to date, really. It only recently rebased to 20.04 from 16.04 and 20.04 will go EOL next year, while there’s still no promises on how they plan on transitioning to the next LTS release (I get that they’re a team of volunteers while Google is a massive corporation, but working on what was essentially abandonware to begin with was likely a disservice, as other mobile Linux distros can follow the upstream a lot more closely than Ubports does).








  • It seems more expressive than GPT-4 in general and better at itemizing information, but it’s a bit worse at keeping track of context and seems to hallucinate more than GPT-4 (but less than GPT-3). I’m currently on the free trial period so I’ll try it out for these two months and then see if it justifies switching over (the subscription is the same price so that won’t be the deal-breaker). One thing that it’s noticeably better at is researching online, probably because it uses Google as a backend instead of Bing lol.

    It’s supposed to integrate with other services, if you use the Android/iOS app, as it can replace Google Assistant entirely and get access to info from other Google services. However, the app is unavailable in the EU and a few other countries as of yet, along with image generation. Classic case of EU favoritism towards Microsoft and not sanctioning it like it does Apple and Google… It’s also rumored that the ChatGPT Android app will get Assistant API integration “soon”, but it’s also not yet available (anywhere, AFAIK). Presumably, even if that is the case, Google can probably add in deeper system-level integrations, given how it’s their OS and their ecossystem.
