A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What do you personally use AI for? (jemmy.jeena.net)

I really want to use AI like llama, ChatGTP, midjourney etc. for something productive. But over the last year the only thing I found use for it was to propose places to go as a family on our Hokaido Japan journey. There were great proposals for places to go.

But perhaps you guys have some great use cases for AI in your life?

  • General purpose LLMs are starting to replace everyday queries I used to posit to Google. Perplexity can be quite good for this.
  • Copilot as enhanced autocomplete when writing code. A particularly good use-case is writing tests: with a few test cases already written, a sufficiently good test name will most often generate a well-written test case.
  • LLMs for lazy generation of SQL queries can sometimes be quite nice.
  • Writing assistance for things I find myself struggling to get written by myself. A writing unblocking tool, if you will.

It's reducing the effort and time I have to put into some things, and I appreciate that. It's far from perfect, but it doesn't have to be perfect to be useful.
