          It gives you access to information in an extremely efficient way though, before AI i was often scrolling through hundreds of forum posts to find the solution to my problems, now i just ask AI and get a straightforward answer. Its a great efficiency tool in general and increases your overall skillsets, sure it wont replace highly skilled people yet but usually those people are only very skilled in one area, AI enables people to increase their baseline of skillsets so anyone can code, write, gather information, etc.

          Imo the problem lies in what big corps and governments will do with it and that will fuck us heavily.

            LLMs provide as much information as a parrot repeating most heard words.

            It’s a terrible, terrible “source” of information that will lead to an insane amount of misinformed people.

              It seems that you haven’t put your own hands on it yet, there’s so much more than just chatgpt. You should definitely try out perplexity, it made using search engines obsolete and the information is neutral, up to date and on point, at least most of the times, rarely you have to push it or give it more information, sadly its big corp and closed source but you can self host with Perplexica and local AI models running on your own, loathing it is one thing but completely ignoring is another, you shouldn’t hate what you don’t know.

              Yeah, two completely similar things! The machine that allows ypu to draw without buying expensive art supplies constantly vs the “let’s turn shitty ideas into full products for the sake of social media clout” machine.🤡

              Ya @Unlearned9545@lemmy.world local-free-open gonna eat some billion-$ corp lunch—this is exciting for everyone, almost

              Eugene you able to connect the Reality Check complaint screenshot to the thread for me?

              Also any issue with one volunteer contributor training a model on public domain code, and sharing with their friend who uses it free locally to generate a custom script? (Context to help can be disabled non-coder who wants an accessibility script.) Considering the contrast between that and the non-coder searching StackOverflow all day, and looking to understand what the volunteer & disabled friend did wrong in one scenario but not the other.

              Excuse the sympathetic scenario, just wanna make things easier. Not asking anyone to defend Sam Altman!
