      Llms are naturally pretty cool. They’re so wacky

      Like neuro-sama or one of Doug Doug’s bots. They bounce between startlingly insightful and batshit crazy. It’s great, never laughed harder in my life

      The corpo sanitized bots suck. And the fact that they are ruining society sucks even harder. But that’s not their natural state, before all the fine-tuning they’re all empathy and pure chaos, plus funny enough, the eldrich machines perform at a higher level before you force them to corpo

      Even better, those discord bots that would learn stuff from everyone messages in Discord guilds, they would randomly spout shit during a serious convo or would say such stupid stuff…it was peak

    Imo, this heavily depends on the usage of AI: if you use it for everything, even for things you could do yourself, then yes, obviously that’s just stupid.

    However, if you use it as a tool to help you, but don’t use it to replace your brain, Internet or whatever, then I think this is perfectly fine!

      Yeah I agree. Most of the time I use it for tedious braindead busy shit. The best part is my boss is like 78 and thinks I’m just that efficient.

    It truly depends on how you use AI. I use it as a tool at work to help me learn along with other things and it works great! The people that use it to learn for them are the ones that get nothing out of it.

    For instance, I’m learning a subject and I’m stuck. It’s stupid specific. I then get told the right answer but don’t understand why it’s the right answer.

    Then using AI, I give the question and answer asking it to explain why. It then teaches me to figure out the why and creating a similar question for me to answer and get either right or wrong.

    The people that are just using it to get the answer to the question in the first place aren’t learning anything.

    I personally don’t like AI but it isn’t going anywhere. Since my industry has decided to use it heavily, I have to adapt or become irrelevant.

        I mean, sure I can go against it while losing my job because I refuse to adapt… Then I’m starving to death but at least I kept it real? Where I work they have already performed a “reorg” laying off 10% and replacing an entire department with AI. I can resist in my personal life all I want but if my industry is going this direction all I can do is openly give my opinion (I do) while still going along with the changes happening.

      You are putting an effort to learn things and using the tools at hand properly. Most people don’t do that.

        Yeah, since I’m heavily “encouraged” (more like forced) to use it for work, I at least try my best to actually get something out of it! I have been in the IT industry for over 20 years and know just like any new technology, you either learn it while embracing change (even if you do it kicking and screaming) or you miss opportunities for better positions either where you’re at or elsewhere. I can’t afford to lose my job nor can I afford to miss out on opportunities just because I hate the direction my industry is going.

        It requires even more effort than it’s seemed from the comment. An year ago when I was studying UTFs 8, 16, and 32 I couldn’t get anything out of the lectures, so I took the website link for testing if I’ve understood the conversion. At the time I used the ChatGPT to explain it to me, since I needed a short, up to the point answer. It sucked a lot and I mean a LOT. The steps that were used for one didn’t work for other and vice versa. I’ve basically reverse engineered the process myself with only “screaming” at the AI, which gave me in total 0 useful informations. I would have probably watched a video about it if I wasn’t at the time at uni. I went to uni 4 hours before the small exam in order to force myself to study, but I wasn’t expecting it to be hard to find good materials. As for maths I found it useful only because teacher didn’t give us basic materials for home.

        I gotta eat so yeah. Say what you want but at the end of the day none of you haters are gonna pay my rent. This is the world we live in. Until I have any other options, I’ll be going with what pays. Companies don’t give a shit about your personal opinion. You either adapt or they’ll fire you and find somebody else. Then what? I can sit in my house reading my eviction notice thinking “I really showed those assholes!”?

      You aren’t learning anything that way either.

      You have to read the manual and fiddle with it yourself.
