"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Yes I speak English, it's dog shit for your stated purpose. What word are you not understanding?
It really isn't but sure. If you're dumb enough to assume what it spits out is gospel it's dogshit for that purpose too, but that's a user issue. Not like random stackoverflow answers are always exactly what you need either lol
The irony of you calling it an ID-ten-T error, located between peripheral and chair, while you vehemently defend the use of AI tp study a subject. You're truly irredeemable.
You are again misunderstanding what they are saying. they clearly said it had use as a search engine, not research in any academic sense.
I am, again, not misunderstanding you, idk how you could possibly construe that. You're a filthy slopper. It's garbage for searching as it will inevitably misinform people with its hallucinations unlike an actual search engine.
Being misinformed by it is, as I said, a user issue. But the amount of times that googling for half an hour did not get me an inch closer to the solution and then I asked chatgpt and it just lists me a bunch of ideas one of which inevitably sets me off on the right path (sometimes it's even completely right in its solution, but that's more 50/50) is greater than 2. It's a tool that has its uses. Claiming it doesn't because most people are too skill issued to use it as such doesn't change the narrow but very useful use case these things have. Far too narrow to sustain this bubble, but that shouldn't be news for anyone here.
There's an insane degree of irony in calling me a slopper or whatever while you're displaying a fundamental unwillingness to critically engage
This is the core of my disagreement with you worthless AI Techbro Sloppers.
You seem to think I don't hate AI techbros with a passion. I very much do. I'm just utilizing the tool that came out of this in the few ways in which it is actually useful, all while still getting a headache every time some manager at work talks about how AI will code everything in a few years because they believe the bullshit coming out of the mouths of the likes of altman and musk.
You're utilizing shit with your bare hands and you wonder why I don't want to shake your hand?
