A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

ChatGPT can recognize text on images already.
At horrendous expense, yes. Using it for OCR makes little sense. And compared to just sending the text directly, even OCR is expensive.
My phone can recognize text on images. How hard could it be to send that data to an AI?
How many billion times do you generally do that, and how is battery life after?
I wouldn’t do it on my phone. 🙄
What I’m saying is that it would probably be fairly easy to incorporate an already existing technology in to an AI.
Yes, and what I'm saying is that it would be expensive compared to not having to do it.
