    I don’t get how so many people carry their computer illiteracy as a badge of honor.

    Chatgpt is useful.

    Is it as useful as Tech Evangelists praise it to be? No. Not yet - and perhaps never will be.

    But I sure do love to let it write my mails to people who I don’t care for, but who I don’t want to anger by sending my default 3 word replies.

    It’s a tool to save time. Use it or pay with your time if you willfully ignore it.

        I used the image generation of a jail broken model locally to drum up an AI mock-up of work I then paid a professional to do

        This was 10000x smoother than the last time I tried this, where I irritated the artist with how much they failed to understand what I meant. The AI didn’t care, I was able to get something decently close to what I had in my head, and a professional took that and made something great with it

        Is that a better example?

    It’s so strange seeing people being proud that they can’t keep up with the technologies.

      Yeah, that’s just judgemental and presumptive.

      I have quite a lot of shit in my life, and I have actively decided to pay no attention to AI. Not because “I can’t keep up with it” but because after some research into it I decided “it was bullshit and nonsense and not something I need to know about”

        Mate, I don’t know you and I don’t care about you. Stop talking about yourself for a second. You posted a screenshot where the person said “I have never even tried it.” That’s it.

          Cus you don’t need to try something to have done some research on why you wouldn’t. A basic, cursory search of ‘what is chat gpt’ would get you LLM, and a basic cursory search of LLM gets you ‘machine designed to make shit up whenever it doesn’t know the answer, meaning you can’t trust it’. Not to mention they’ve probably seen at least one screenshot of it failing miserably at counting letters in a word. Or they’ve seen the ai answers Google shoves down their throat and learned from basic word of mouth that GPT is More of That. The only thing they said they don’t know is WHERE GPT is, or how it’s accessed.

            Look, this is your life. If you want to be miserable, angry and left behind - fine, I don’t care. You don’t need my permission. So stop wasting your and my time.

              All due respect, you started this.

              You attacked me for writing a post. Clearly you care enough to do that.

                “People being proud that they can’t keep up with the technologies.” is a bit of a slap but it’s hardly an attack.

                If you’re going to post on the internet you have to expect people to give you some level of shit.
