    i’m studying mechanical engineering and there’s a guy in our class who’s obsessed with chatgpt. he’s always trying to solve all of the tasks using chatgpt and he’s always the first to share the solution in zoom. so far it’s never been correct but he just sticks with it…

      I am a mechanical engineer. I was able to get special permission from my IT department to use LLMs as part of my workflow as a genie pig for the department. It is completely useless.

      One the most valuable skill an engineer can have is being able to communicate technical information effectively to different audiences. GPT is on overly polite meat grinder, spitting out half chewed technical slop.

      If I’m recalling right, I asked Chatgpt re banked turn with friction. Didn’t give the answer I was looking for.

      I asked Chatgpt re the best big phones of 2022. 1 of the phones it cited was released in 2021.
