I find this very offensive, wait until my chatgpt hears about this! It will have a witty comeback for you just you watch!

I've only used it to write cover letters for me. I tried to also use it to write some code but it would just cycle through the same 5 wrong solutions it could think of, telling me "I've fixed the problem now"

I use it to write code for me sometimes, saving me remembering the different syntax and syntactic sugar when I hop between languages. And I use to answer questions about things I wonder - it always provides references. So far it's been quite useful. And for all that people bitch and piss and cry giant crocodile tears while gnashing their teeth - I quite enjoy Apple AI. It's summaries have been amazing and even scarily accurate. No, it doesn't mean Siri's good now, but the rest of it's pretty amazing.

It’s going to remove all individuality and turn us into a homogeneous jelly-like society. We all think exactly the same since AI “smoothes out” the edges of extreme thinking.

Vs text books? What's the difference?

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

The variety of available text books, reviewed for use by educators vs autocratic loving tech bros pushing black box solutions to the masses.

Just off thebtopnofnmy head.

Tech Bros aren't really reviewing it individually.

Copilot told me you're wrong and that I can't play with you anymore.

Let me ask chatgpt what I think about this

Counterpoint - if you must rely on AI, you have to constantly exercise your critical thinking skills to parse through all its bullshit, or AI will eventually Darwin your ass when it tells you that bleach and ammonia make a lemon cleanser to die for.
