Okay I'm not gonna say screw AI on the whole but screw whoever gave it that baseline understanding of things. Thats chatGPT right? Apparently made by OpenAI. Yeah never trusting them

I quoted your post at first cause the image was still appearing as broken

AI is a good tool to supplement the learning you’re doing elsewhere provided you know it can be wrong/missing information. At the stage it is now I wouldn’t use it as a primary resource.

i really like the deep research feature gemini introduced first, now everyone else is starting to catch up.

it costs more to use since it runs a gpu for around 10 minutes instead of the usual 5–30 seconds, but the tradeoff is worth it: it actually pulls up relevant papers, sources, and reasons through things in a way that feels more human. it even checks what it's about to tell you before answering.

i use it to fact-check the tech articles i'm writing, but i also spend hours reading about tech daily, everything from academic papers to news stories. so yeah, i get why it might mislead someone who's going in blind. it can definitely make something sound convincing even when it's off.

all these systems carry biases, they just differ in which ones. that’s inevitable, though, since they’re trained on human perspectives, and we’re all biased in one way or another.

i wouldn't ask chatgpt about israel or deepseek about mao's famine lol.

you could have a rough draft or idea of literally anything you can end up with a vision board in a few prompts for where to next

No but AI is very powerful and useful when used properly

here's just one reason why it's not better than books:

Amazon, Microsoft and Google are operating datacentres that use vast amounts of water in some of the world’s driest areas and are building many more, the non-profit investigatory organisation SourceMaterial and the Guardian have found.

With Donald Trump pledging to support them, the three technology giants are planning hundreds of datacentres in the US and across the globe, with a potentially huge impact on populations already living with water scarcity.

...Efforts by Amazon, the world’s largest online retailer, to mitigate its water use have sparked opposition from inside the company, SourceMaterial’s investigation found, with one of its own sustainability experts warning that its plans are “not ethical”.

...Amazon’s three proposed new datacentres in the Aragon region of northern Spain – each next to an existing Amazon datacentre – are licensed to use an estimated 755,720 cubic metres of water a year, roughly enough to irrigate 233 hectares (576 acres) of corn, one of the region’s main crops.

In practice, the water usage will be even higher as that figure doesn’t take into account water used to generate the electricity that will power the new installations, said Aaron Wemhoff, an energy efficiency specialist at Villanova University in Pennsylvania.

But can AI interpret scriptures like our top scholars can?

this thread title astounds me every time i read it

elicit.com

AI knows it's s*** until it starts yapping about the s*** you actually know about, then you can see how much you're "learning"

Who's gonna tell him that's the baseline model for all current major AI bots aggregators

So far

Google's being the worst

So far

came in here to post this. i used to work on them, i would not trust them for anything even remotely important.

And at each juncture, nuance is lost. Like a game of Telephone.

Also, o1/DeepSeek are reliable in short-context scenarios

AI is wrong A LOT. It will never replace legitimate sources of information that are objectively correct.

F*** meta too

AI is better at using search engines than a human to find objectively correct information

Its also currently based on the previous human input that it was trained on.

Get ready for 10+ yrs from now when public opinion is locked behind another paywall cause theres no longer public opinion to search thats not locked in a companies db

Putting Reddit at the end of Google searches will still reign supreme
