"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It's almost perfect, I would've used it there wasn't

Use the AI. Really, go for it. It's a great drafting partner.

To me pasting a chatbot output and replying based on something you just learned from a chatbot is the exact same thing. If I want to ask the crap machine, I do it myself. But I don't.

Edit: fortunately it's FOSS so I guess I'll fork it if I'm bored

Etiquette: How do you ask someone if they got their answer from a chatbot?

I wanted a very specific list of TV episodes. I queried a chatbot for the list, but thought, you know what, there's a dedicated bunch of nerds for this, so I asked lemmy.

Someone made several different lists related to what I was a looking for, including one with EXACTLY what I was looking for. I've seen 3 episodes on that list so far, only 1 has matched my exact criteria. If they didn´t use a chatbot, they certainly didn´t do much better than a chatbot would have.

But if I bring it up, do I look like an asshole?
