it’s because it’s not intelligent it’s just an LLM that does a pretty good job imitating how humans speak. pretending it is intelligent is admittedly something humans do all the time to charming smooth talkers but like you said when we force it to do a job it was never meant to do and it will forever be unsuited for, we set it up for failure

yeah on a recent trip it went from like 2.8 mi/kw to 2.3 mi/kw as the weather went from above to below 0 C but the way you hear some people tell it if the snow falls you’ll be stranded at work and won’t be able to drive ten miles home 😑

I swear all my coworkers keep asking what I’m going to do when my battery dies in the cold smfh

and even my wife still has range anxiety despite traveling half of I-95 multiple times

there is no ethical consumption under capitalism

oh shit that totally makes sense thank you

didn’t they already sell out by going to Hollywood in the first place…?

I think a better analogy would be oxycodone or hydromorphone over opium but your point stands

I know, I just remember I used to use it with jabber xmpp but I think after everyone got gtalk and then everyone got cellphones everyone moved away from those types of clients

lol was your ex a doctor? you’re not wrong that a lot of what we do today is dependent on massive supply chains and the work of vast armies of allied healthcare workers, engineers, scientists, and pharma, but most doctors offer common sense remedies for common ailments and can be as simple as rest and fluids for a cold and heating packs for a sore back. even as someone who did trauma surgery for a while and now does robotic surgery, sure I won’t be able to reconstruct your abdominal wall and safely reroute your intestines without modern anesthesia, ICUs, and antibiotics but even in modern times there are days that consist of hours of scraping old infected wounds, lancing boils/popping pimples, and talking about diet strategies to avoid hemorrhoids.

emts are valuable to stabilize and transport but can’t care for things long term. engineers can build mris but can’t interpret the fuzzy squiggles that pop up on the screen. I can distill my own alcohol for sterilization, hand weave silk/cotton sutures, and sharpen crude scalpels without modern technology. the biggest value I bring is my years of seeing sick people and figuring out what’s actually bothering them without WebMD or ai, even if I don’t have high tech solutions, ruling out the most dangerous potential diagnoses and finding the rare zebras.

edit: I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that you’re either very young or very lucky with good health. not that I’m hoping you get sick but eventually all of us end up needing doctors to help us and when you do you’ll see what I mean. even though I don’t currently need any doctors myself, I’m very glad there are people out there that can help me when I need it.

oh shit I am a little ashamed I didn’t know this existed but I am way more happy that I have this to treasure for the rest of my life

does pixelfed not… uh… federate?

I only used sync on reddit and that’s all I use on lemmy, tried many of the others and they’re good but not perfect, for both the closed source and open source projects
