If I'm trying to fasten something, and the screwdriver fucks up half the time, then yeah I'm going to nail it together instead. Or use glue, or anything but an unreliable screwdriver.
Thats the thing. AI doesn’t fuck up all the time and has gotten genuinely useful for some things in the last months.
But a huge amount of you doesn’t know this or doesn’t care, generating an insufferable, ignorant circlejerk, drowning out every interesting discussion you can have about this topic.
Who said all the time? The problem is most people can't tell which half it's fucking up. An unreliable tool isn't useful
Hmm. They fuck up 50 percent of the time? I not only doubt that, I know that this is wrong. No offense. Do you actively use LMMs?
No. Because they fuck up so often.
Why would I keep using a broken tool?
Gotcha. You‘re one of those guys talking out of their arse.
Nope. Just experienced enough to know when the tool is wrong, so I understand it's a fuck up.
