worry not. remember this is TACO Don… he’ll chicken out again

You’re moving the goalposts. You said you need nuance in how to measure a shirt size, you’re arguing just to argue.

I said I needed context to verify AI was not giving me slop. If you want to trust AI blindly, go ahead, I’m not sure why you need me to validate your point

If a model ever starts answering these curiosities inaccurately, it would be an insufficient model for that task and wouldn’t be used for it.

And how would you notice unless: you either already know the correct answer (at least a ballpark) or verify what AI is telling you?

You would immediately notice this is a bad model when it tells you to measure your neck to get a sleeve length

What if it gives you and answer that does not sound so obviously wrong? like measuring the neck width instead of circumference? or measure shoulder to wrists?

So I’m making the assertion that many models today are already sufficient for accurately answering daily curiosities about modern life.

And once again I tell you that you can trust it blindly while I would not and I will add that I do not need another catalyst for the destruction of our planet so I can get some trivia questions answered. Given the environmental cost of AI, I would expect a significant return, not just a trivia machine that may wrong 25% of the time

but to dismiss their utility completely is just idiotic.

not what I said at all. I simply stated AI answers cannot be trusted without verifying them which makes them a lot less useful

not at the current cost or environmental damage

I second this motion

The last thing I googled is how to measure dress shirt size. Do you need context and nuance for everything you Google?

if AI is answering, yes.

Do you prefer to click on the seo optimized first page results that are full of ads and read through a nonsense article…

No, but that’s not what i claimed so you can have your strawman back

Most of the Internet is NOT intellectual writing, it’s blog spam to answer your daily curiosities and practical needs. A sufficienty trained model is a really good (and environmentally friendly) alternative.

Let me know when we get one. In the meantime, enjoy your thick, glue riddled, pizza sauce

…and it’s only expensive and ruins the environment even faster than our wildest nightmares

what you say is true but it’s not a viable business model, which is why AI has been overhyped so much

How does the attacked country being a “paper tiger” influence your judgement of whether it’s shitty or not to attack it?

It’s the “I’m the center of the world and this does not look like it’s going to affect ME so everything is alright” point of view

That is, of course, until today when Google pulled the rug from under it…

As I have said, there may have been a sound technical decision back in the day but from where I see it, most people attracted to a non-google Android probably were not kin on having to buy from google anyway… like choosing to be Vegetarian but only when eating at Montana’s Steak House

I understand… but again, strategically that meant they are as free from Google as Google allows them to be (case in point)

I am not 100% knowledgeable as to the history and mission of GrapheneOS, I checked them out trying to de-google. But when I found out that I must buy a flagship Google phone to use GrapheneOS, it immediately defeated the purpose I was trying to achieve

I just switched phones and I specifically gave up on my wish for GrapheneOS seeing it all but married to the Pixel line. I get that Pixels were popular but this was just a terrible decision on their part given the goal of GrapheneOS overall…

Honestly, this is like rallying against Toyota by only buying Corollas

This is the way… even better, have no Meta accounts of any kind

This was it and you were there in Trump’s first term…

I see… and agree. In my world PornHub seems to be the most famous but I rarely visit.

Seeing some “unexplored” options with all the suggestions here hehehe

people still on twitter are complete, brain washed idiots… so this behaviour tracks

why would you read a whole article to answer a simple question when AI gives you the answer directly?

context?, nuance?, verifying the AI slop?

hmm those equivalent, I would not call them better

go on…

America has already descended into fascism, you are doing it to climb out of the hole!

Keep it up, be smart, stay safe and godspeed

money in politics, that’s your root cause
