Ask Lemmy

I use it to explain dumber questions i have about math and coding concepts.

I use it to write scripts.

I used it to interpret my rental lease and calculate penalties and see whats covered by my landlord vs myself.

The applications of what you call ai are absolutely limitless. But to be clear what you're calling "AI" isn't AI in terms of what you might want it to be what you're referring to are large language models or LLM's. Which aren't ai, not yet.

It's short sighted statements like this that really get my blood boiling.

If humanity actually achieves artificial intelligence it'll be the equivalent of the printing press or agriculture. It'll be like inventing the superconductor or micro transistors all over again. Our world will completely change for the better.

If your interactions with these llms have been negative, I can only assume that you have a strong bias against this type of technology and have simply not used it in a way that's applicable for you.

I personally use llms pretty much daily in my life and they have been nothing but an excellent tool.

Only one I ever use is the meta AI built into messenger because my friends and I can have it make silly and often extremely cursed pictures that make us laugh

As a college student, best experience I've had is just generating stories that you can easily tell are AI written by use of specific language.

Second best was when I tried taking pokemon from older generations, taking their BST, telling an AI (perplexity) that I wanna give them gen 5 BST, providing a spreadsheet with all gen 5 pokemon w/BST and each individual stat, and using whatever it gives me as a baseline for making BST edits.

Otherwise, I wouldn't say I'm a big fan of AI since I don't have many uses for it myself.

Nope

i use it to summarize text sometimes, does it count?

There'd been a few cases where it was helpful. But yeah, I mostly agree

It’s really useful for churning out some basic code. For searching the web, it’s providing better results than Google these days.
