AI evangelists are like "Embrace AI or be left behind! We are the FUTURE! I don't know what a DICTIONARY is! I can't get a GIRLFRIEND because I use Grok to generate images of women with 10 BOOBS! I am ILLITERATE! I use ChatGPT to wipe my ASS! My life is AWESOME!"

If ChatGPT is not consistently dependable, how are we suppose to use it for actual work?
Discussion
It's behavior and results can randomly change due to some OpenAl tweaking that's opaque.
On some days it can't even keep track of a fresh chat, it can't do calculations, it can't sort through a chat to extract relevant information, and when it's suppose to refer to source material in a PDF, it doesn't.
All because OpenAl trained it for fluency and basically to simulate whatever it can for user satisfaction.
I can use it for general chats, philosophical stuff, therapy, but nothing serious. I'm pro Al, but I approach it with skepticism knowing it's undependable (as I do with anything I read).
And prompts can be interpreted/executed differently across users' own interaction with their Als so it's not truly scalable.
How does the business world / leaders expect staff to adopt Al if it's not consistently dependable? It doesn't even calculate like a calculator. If the internet start claiming 2+2=5, that's what it'll answer with.
I'd use it for hobbies and pet projects but I can't imagine using it for anything "mission critical".

"You won't be able to tell" I'm sure! However the second I find out I will lose all interest. Just being honest! If it's generated by a program rather than a person, I don't give a shit.

When I speak against AI-generated music online, the most common retort is that eventually gen AI music will be so "good" that it'll be better than real musicians. And my reply to that is that there's simply no level of "quality" at which I'm capable of enjoying art that was not made by a person

You know what, sure. Doesn’t get more American than pulling a big tech-sponsored stunt and digitally puppeteering a kid’s corpse for an uncaring audience rather than interviewing a shooting survivor or doing anything to curb gun violence. Utterly demonic.

You know what’s funny, and what I didn’t know before moving here, is all of the food dye from American fruit loops is legal in Canada. The Canadian ones are less bright because market research showed consumers preferred the more β€œnatural” looking cereal, while Americans like the bright stuff.

I am glad we live where we do but MAN do I miss having a home that you could use a Roomba in. The satisfaction of turning it on remotely and coming home to a bunch of concentric circles in your clean carpet… I just got goosebumps dude

Weirdly as a Millennial I never feel like this stuff is targeted at us. Gen Z gets the stuff Claire’s describing, Boomers get AI generated images of Obama sacrificing kittens, and Millennial content is like β€œOMG! Anybody remember the Motorola Razr? I dressed my kid up as Dwight from The Office”

Yeah. Not so much academic faculty over here. Lot of performance faculty though, using it for grants and emails and stuff.

I also think the β€œleft” is already implicitly offering solutions for straight men who want sexuality and kinshipβ€”treat women as equals. It’s just that a lot of men would rather leave that offer on the table, apparently.

My thoughts on this are still developing, but it seems interesting to me that a significant portion of adults using AI generated images or videos are doing so in a way that is categorically similar to children playing with dolls.

Las Vegas tourism drops sharply as some visitors claim 'casinos are empty' amid rising costs The tourism decline in Las Vegas, Nevada, continues with hotel occupancy down 6.5% and room rates dropping as high prices are keeping visitors away from Sin City.

Funny to see Fox News reporting on the front page of their site this and tiptoeing around any potential reasons why one of the top tourist destinations for international travelers, especially Canadians, might be suffering right now

Helsinki goes a full year without a traffic death A city traffic engineer credits the success to lower speed limits and smarter design.

This is really remarkable. Helsinki is a good model for the value of robust public transit and walkable infrastructure. We visited a while back, and I am only realizing now that I didn't enter a car once the whole time we were there.
