All I had to do was open my office communicator and go "Hey, how do I do that thing again?" and get an answer. If it was specifically troubling, they could just show me how to do it visually. Your shitty AI can't do that.

Honestly ainigs can cope and sneethe all they want, but it's becoming more and more clear that firstly AI isn't the miracle tool we all hoped/feared it would be; it's now been made clear that it's just a schizophrenic text generator. And you know, having a schizo friend to google shit for you is nice and all - except when you can just Google shit yourself.

"But all that shit is AI generated slop and I need to scroll down!" Okay, does your schizophrenic friend know this as well? How do you even know where your schizophrenic friend is getting your information? How do you know that it's correct? Your schizophrenic friend can barely remember who you are, let alone where he got whatever he's telling you is true. Even if you ask your schizophrenic friend where he got his information from, how do you know he's being honest? How do you know if he even knows where he got the information from? Is he being honest, a liar, or a fool? What is he? There's no telling.

So what it ends in, is people relying on a schizo to do things for them, but either A) they have to waste their time cleaning the inevitable mess and correcting the inevitable mistakes made by their schizo, or B) they just aren't getting good at whatever they make their schizo do - all the person has to show is a half-baked schizo-made slopfest, and absolutely zero skills on their end to show for it. What the fuck was the point of doing all that then? To just justify the schizo's existence and prove that all this time training the schizo on other people's backs and other people's electricity was worth it?

You know what, you're right. I know you are right because discussion forums don't really exist after google, and school hasn't existed since the printing press. This is why these things are pointless, because you always have the right context and you always know the right keywords to find the resources you want. Furthermore, when you find the resources you want you never have any questions. There has never been a situation where someone has read a book and had questions about that book. This has never happened, hence the lack of schools in the modern day. I concede, you are 100% right. All we need is 4chan and google. Literally anything else is "turning our brain into beef jerky."

And yes, I have bought books with the help of chatGPT. I'm currently going through Spivak's calculus because of it.

I hate faggots like you so much, and this modern trope of just having one retarded position and dying on the most retarded hills imaginable.

Legitimately kill yourself. I think it takes a special kind of retard to just out himself as a "do this for me because I don't want to think", by projecting that onto everyone who decides to use the tool that is not the tool you like. Let me be perfectly clear: if that's the only use you can conceive of for the tool, then (YOU)'re the midwit lazy retard, not anyone else.

What questions are you asking? Maybe we can help. I wish people having problems in this thread posted more of their prompts. There are things you really shouldn't use chatGPT for at all, but for some other things it can be really helpful. Generally, try to
>Keep questions not necessarily simple, but direct
>Ask for references and resources rather than answers
>Sometimes you can ask for answers, but they have to pertain to topics which are very common place, and which you can quickly verify
>If you don't know something ask questions to try and get more context instead of a full answer. For instance, lets say you want to learn more about sets, you can be like "what field of mathematics deals with sets?" and go from there.

It takes a little practice, but you can get a lot from it if you learn how to talk to it. Good questions are shit like

If you give it the code it won't do as many mistakes.
It still had a couple tiny mistakes, obviously you have to review it, but still it's massive time saved.
You can also give it code and ask it to refactor it based on best practices.
And it only works on popular stuff. If you are using a language/framework/platform that is not popular it's pretty much useless.

The concept of idea density measures the number of unique ideas expressed per unit of text (e.g., per sentence or per 100 words). It strongly correlates with creativity, intelligence, and even brain health. Folk wisdom already reflects this: entire corners of the internet mock people who use excessive words to appear intelligent, while truly smart individuals can pack staggering amounts of insight into concise statements—every few words offering something new to learn.

This matters because most information today is low in idea density. Much of it is produced by low-IQ individuals, resulting in mountains of text delivering little value. For instance, many tech job postings are bloated with buzzwords, repetition, and filler—longer than ever but containing almost no actionable information. Writing thoughtful cover letters for these is a waste of time.

Enter ChatGPT. Whether or not you consider it "true intelligence," it operates with an unprecedented ability to extract patterns and condense meaning. Its output often has a higher idea density than human writing. Case in point: when I ran this original post through ChatGPT, it returned something even more concise and insightful.

ChatGPT is the most powerful information processing tool ever created. I've used it to find relevant companies to apply to, to simulate teacher-student interactions for learning, to double-check facts, to source partially remembered knowledge, to process text, and to brain storm ideas. IMO, this tool is like an extension of consciousness. Soon, it will be able to do autonomous background tasks which is like offloading a part of your mind to a research assistant. I feel that chatgpt is as important as the internet. Maybe more so.

Books are fine but they present a locked view of meaning. Will you find the right book? You could spend your entire life searching for the content you need and still never find it.

at least with google you know where you are getting your information and if it's true or not depending on the source. With chatGPT you just have to take it's word for it. It's basically wikipedia without any of the citations.

I don't dismiss the tool entirely and make my job 100x harder because it got it wrong one time. Flexing your inability to do so isn't an own like you think it is.

maybe you don't get it, it's fine. it's more useful than google for math and coding stuff. You have a hexagon with 5 inches per side and need to know the area, it will just know the formula and calculate it for you instantly. That's a simple example though. The more steps the problem has, the more time it saves.

Like the other day I wanted to calculate at what point space "really" begins. Where the atmosphere is closer in density to true interplanetary space than the atmosphere on Earth. And it instantly pulled in a formula for the density of the atmosphere at a given altitude and calculated it all out, as well as the density of particles in space and other relevant info. It's like what wolfram alpha promised to be 15 years ago, but actually works.

I don't really know or care if this kind of thing is useful to normies. It's useful enough to me to pay a few bucks a month for.

What if whatever you asked the AI to do is not programming, so you have to actually perform the most basic verification of AI outputs yourself? What if there is no compiler-like tool made by people smarter than you that you can outsource your "verification" to?

So do humans. Personally I found even the very first version of chatGPT useful. It sucked, mostly produced buggy code, and was still useful to me. The newer version, o1, is just night and day better. I can ask way more complicated tasks, and the rate of errors is just so much lower. I can't even imagine how good it will be in a few more years.

I used to keep a list of simple questions that LLMs got wrong. In the days of GPT4 it was already getting hard to find them. I had to try tons of random ideas to find one question it would screw up. O1 gets all of them right.

I think people developed their opinions on AI in the caveman days of GPT3 or chatgpt. All the criticisms they make are the ones from those times. They just haven't tried the newer stuff, probably because it costs money.

I would say this whole basedcial media bad, muh mental health crisis is a whole load of bull crap and fake news spread by sensationalist journalist retards. There's no mental health crisis, there's more awareness of mental health issues wholly due to the spread of internet. This doesn't itself indicate a mental health crisis. So is the case for the le loneliness meme. Happiest countries in the world usually are also the so called 'loneliest' Nations in the world (think about all those memes about Nordic bus stops where people stand 5 meters apart from other).

Literally anything. Architecture, would the building crumble? EE, is just going to short and not do anything you want? Robotics, is the machine going to rip itself apart? Finance, what is the total exposure of a play, is it even legal? Arts, is the perspective right, do people have the correct amount of fingers? Medical, is shit straight up poisonous to humans. Aviation, does a plane produce enough lift and can it even withstand the G forces it generates? Production line design, does it make what you asked or just a pile of scrap? And a fuck ton of other possible pitfalls I do not know about because they too in-depth in disciplines I do not know
Compilers are fairly unique as a tool in how much errors they cover, other disciplines don't have that luxury
>It's pretty simple actually, does it produce the output you desired?
You cannot prove correctness of a program that way. It also doesn't cover in/outputs that are too big or too complex to hand-analyze, or errors that are too sporadic for a lazy ai nigger to catch

I have had a goal the last year of evaluating chatgpt as a programming assistant at work. I find it to be useful, whether it's worth 20 bucks a month though is a bit up in the air. You need to give it very detailed lengthy step-by-step prompts and then take its solution, manually assemble it yourself, and go through it carefully making sure you know what it's doing. It will insert completely wrong shit occasionally. I think the best way to view it is as a smart intern or maybe an entry level developer who only writes code under careful supervision. In that case you are then playing the role of the manager and overall architect.
Also it is way more competent at scripting languages, especially python, than C/C++. Though o1 has surprised me with its C++ chops a few times. Another thing about chatgpt is that if it gives you code, and you test it and there's a problem with it, you can provide the error + context to see if it solves it. But if it doesn't fix it the first attempt, it never will, and it's going to be on you to resolve the issue. Don't waste your time in a debugging loop with it.

Oh, absolutely! You're right. Clearly, in the magical world of programming, we should test every single possible input combination—after all, who needs efficiency or practicality when you can just brute-force 8 billion possibilities?

Forget about leveraging algorithms that make the entire process scalable, because, you know, who wants to solve a problem efficiently when you can solve it the old-fashioned way—by overloading your CPU? And don’t even get me started on deflection; I’m sure you’ve never heard of it either.
