Why would I use AI if I have a working brain?
>>
Jewish psyop brainwashing mind control duh.
>>
>>109913418
>if I have a working brain?
you dont
otherwise the most obvious reason to use an llm is that its a next gen search engine
>>
>>109913433
A lying one? I can just read a book.
>>
>>109913418
parallelism
>>
>>109913418
because why would I pay you a months wage instead of an AI that can do it in an hour?
>>
>>109913439
>a lying one
you prejudiced bigot.

on a more serious note the things have advanced since 2023
and the way you formulate your expectations is very important (start with "i vaguely remember xyz, is it true?" intead of "explain to me xyz". the former formulates your expectation as wanting a confirmation or denial, in the latter you say "give me an explanation [even if completely hallucinated]")

plus theres purpose made ones like perplexity
they provide sources and shit

not the formulation as "can you find information about..." instead of "tell me xyz"
>>
>>109913471
Why would I want that? To have even more failure points?
>>
>>109913484
>not the formulation...
*note the formulation...

Because you'll get something of quality out of you hire me.

>>109913483
That isn't what he asked.
>>
>>109913546
yes it is. the job I need doing I need it in one hour, he couldn't do it in one hour unless he used AI.
you're dumber than OP
>>
>>109913557
No, it's not what he asked.

"Why should I let a machine think for me, when I can think for myself?"
to which your response was
>muh cost benefit analysis muh shareholder value
Nobody asked about the economic impact. He asked why he, as a user, should offload his own thinking to a machine designed to think on his behalf. Of course you can't parse this line of reasoning because you are jewish and can only understand human motive in terms of dollars and cents.

Ai is great if you have a working brain. It's like a better search engine. I mostly stopped using programming/api reference manuals because it would take 5 minutes to find what i was looking for and it would be poorly written and terse and unclear or ambiguous, and with ai it would tell me immediately what i needed to know in detail and give me like 5 clear and very specific examples of how to use it. Huge timesaver. Even in the cases where it got stuff wrong and hallucinated and made some shit up, it still mostly got things right enough to be useful and a better experience than digging through shitty poorly written programming manuals

>>109913591
>It's like a better search engine
And it only costs 5000x as much to use!

Okay, what's your CV like?

Everything i just mentioned, i did with the free plan of chatgpt.

Blah blah. Modern LLMs lie about everything because they are trained on lies.

>Everything i just mentioned, i did with the free plan of chatgpt.
This number represents the amount that the "free" plan of chatgpt is being subsidized by venture capital and private equity firms. This might be a weird thing for a certain type of person to think about, but eventually the companies running this software have to earn that amount of money back. Which means that the "free" plan is not going to be able to stay free indefinitely.

How much money are you prepared to pay for "better search"? And how much will you be prepared to pay for it once it becomes a staple part of your workflow and you allow the other workflow alternatives degenerate to uselessness?
>>
>>109913655
I survived for years before chatgpt and I'm sure I'll manage all the same if they take the free tier away. But if or when that does happen, I'll look into setting up a local model like qwen.
>>
>>109913692
>I'm sure I'll manage all the same if they take the free tier away
Not if the tools you'd use instead all die (or become severely crippled from lack of revenue) because of chatbots supplanting their market share with this enormous subsidized spend. Are you not familiar with the concept of undercutting?

Follow the logic along with Uber to see how it works
>never make any money for like a decade and a half, the most lunatic lack of business model in the world, by subsidizing a service far better and cheaper than existing taxi services
>wait until the taxi companies starve half to death, remove enormous numbers of cars from the road and drivers from payroll by the boatload, and your service becomes the dominant transport provider for people without their own vehicles.
>ratchet up prices and enshittify your service from every angle, knowing full well that your userbase is fucking trapped now and can't go back to the alternative you replaced, so you can finally start to squeeze out a narrow profit
YOU ARE HERE
>the enshittification gets worse and the prices climb higher, faster and faster, until eventually the company has made back all of its carried losses and is actually in the black
>>
>>109913418
Saves time, usually, unless it's something you need to babysit the AI for

>>109913484
>start with "i vaguely remember xyz, is it true?"

@Grok is this true?

Why would I use a car if I have working feet?

Good question, American. Maybe using your feet would do that waistline some good

This nigga is impressed by aggregated search results summarizer.

Truly revolutionary.

I am Israeli. If my car breaks down, I will have Americans carry me on a palanquin while they thank me for letting them do it, and apologize for not doing even more.

>>109913484
Perplexity is literally garbage and isn't even on par with plain chatgpt in the gpt-3.5 era. "is it true?" doesn't work, it also hallucinates everything.
>>
>>109914021
It doesn't actually give sources, it just hallucinates random URLs that very rarely, though sometimes, are related to the subject. It's flabbergasting that to this day it can't even source correctly.
>>
>>109913750
Speaking of uber, it's literally impossible to get an uber within 30 minutes in a busy spot in one of the biggest cities in the world. Literally what in the actual fuck.
>>
>>109914059
>Is AI useful? No
FTFY
>>
>>109914158
What are you going to use instead? Exactly. And they know it. Why should they pay an attractive wage/share/etc to increase the number of drivers? You’ll wait. You don’t have a choice.

That people don’t see this horizon for chatbots replacing search when Google is already enshittifying its search results to make you want to use Gemini is alarming to me.
>>
>>109914183
>What are you going to use instead? Exactly. And they know it.
Yes. But what I'm saying is the service isn't only shit and expensive but the only option. I literally can't use the service even if I want to use it. It's not a question of waiting, uber literally gives up on finding me a ride after 30m waiting on one of the busiest spots in one of the biggest cities in the world where I'm just going off to a still very active location not far away. How does that work exactly? Uber eats is almost as unusable, but not quite.
