It really doesn't matter which AI you prefer to use. You're wrong for using AI period.

This is a garbage tier take. You use spell correction. Thats a form of computerized decision making, which is artificial intelligence. You MAY have a point if you're referring to LLMs but thats incredibly arguable, and you hasn't stated any reasoning behind your opinion.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bullshit. You haven't made any argument at all. You just supported a position without any backing behind it. So your take is garbage. I don't use spell correction because I don't need it, as I understand the language.

Use of ai is not immoral in and of itself. That argument is made in my response. I supported that argument by explaining why AI isn't immoral, in that its a useful tool.

"I don't use spell correction because I don't need it, as I understand the language."

Run-on sentence. You are using a comma as a seperator between two fully separate thoughts. Thats the wrong punctuation to accomplish the task you want.you should either use a semi-colon or a conjunction, or just make them separate sentences.

Your understanding of the language is clearly perfect and any tool that provides feedback when you make mistakes is clearly unnecessary.

Ok, so basically you're saying you're a grammar Nazi? Why? You still haven't made any argument for your position. You're just a dick. What a waste of time and data. Congrats for that, I guess?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My argument, which has ready been made twice, is computer decision making is not immoral. Thats ridiculous. Its incredibly useful in thousands of ways. All of this is AI.

You ACTUALLY make no argument. "AI is bad. If you use ai, you're evil."

That is not an argument, just an opinion, and has no support.

I'm using spellcheck as an example because its relevant.

If you continue to believe I've made no argument, well, I guess your reading compression isnt up to where it would need to be to understand basic human interaction.

You are of course welcome to have and express your opinion, but when its just a shit take and its unsupported dont get pissed about getting called out.

Again you fail to make any point or support any argument. Congratulations, you made words. But you haven't even made it clear what side you're on. You're like a fucking late night ad show. You're the human version of QVC. You haven't even made it clear what your problem is with me, let alone my initial point. You can eat my ass or stfu. Up to you.

Understood. "Do not interact with Pooptart, they are incredibly stupid."

Lesson learned.

Again you fail to make any point, you just insult.

you're wrong for using writing. Writing leads to laziness and forgetfulness. Future generations will hear much without being properly taught and will appear wise but not be so.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is ALSO a garbage tier take. You have assumed your opponents opinion is based on AI making people dumb. You're providing them with ammo. There are many possibilities for why they think this. As far as you know, your statement is entirely irrelevant to the person you're responding too.

not my words, i was referring to Plato's Phaedrus to make fun of the "ai bad" comment. I'm sorry. Forgive me.

Socrates tells a brief legend, critically commenting on the gift of writing from the Egyptian god Theuth to King Thamus, who was to disperse Theuth's gifts to the people of Egypt. After Theuth remarks on his discovery of writing as a remedy for the memory, Thamus responds that its true effects are likely to be the opposite; it is a remedy for reminding, not remembering, he says, with the appearance but not the reality of wisdom. Future generations will hear much without being properly taught, and will appear wise but not be so, making them difficult to get along with.

No written instructions for an art can yield results clear or certain, Socrates states, but rather can only remind those that already know what writing is about. Furthermore, writings are silent; they cannot speak, answer questions, or come to their own defense.

Accordingly, the legitimate sister of this is, in fact, dialectic; it is the living, breathing discourse of one who knows, of which the written word can only be called an image. The one who knows uses the art of dialectic rather than writing:

"The dialectician chooses a proper soul and plants and sows within it discourse accompanied by knowledge—discourse capable of helping itself as well as the man who planted it, which is not barren but produces a seed from which more discourse grows in the character of others. Such discourse makes the seed forever immortal and renders the man who has it happy as any human being can be."
