I like AI to write letters or wishes, etc. Also, double check what they write. It's not really accurate for long things and chats.

Be careful about all the lies it tells you, everytime I doulbe check something there are made up things. It is only useful for introductory keywords, but it starts to fill the gaps randomly when it doesn't know about the topic.
Thankfully for general knowledge questions it gets things correct. A lot of what I ask or am curious about is general knowledge so it works really well for me
My problem used to be that I started like that, and then I wanted to ask more an then another bit more, and that's when things get messy. And at some point I usually end up annoyed that half of the conversation was based on a lie. Now I barely open the chat because of that.
Yep, I now almost only use it for generating boilerplate code
Probably my #1 use case currently. I love passing in code and saying "parse all these values and build an error message if they're empty" and such. It's things good to have, but I can rarely be bothered to write out line by line - it's easy but horribly tedious
It really doesn't get general knowledge correct.
AI will often confuse itself because the answers are probabilistic. So it often is right, but just as often is hallucinating random BS, because AI doesn't really know shit. It just detects patterns.
I just saw a post on Reddit about GPT claiming Argentina is the second most populated country in South America (which is false, it's Colombia), but since Argentina is usually second place in most lists in the region, GPT tends to place Argentina in there anyway.
It gets things most popular. That is often in a different postal code from "right".
Before GPT I would be googling things for hours each day, visiting forums, watching YouTube videos, etc.
And then...
Important Note: Please be aware language models can be innacurate and prone to mistakes, so always verify the data from other sources if you need accurate information and not just general knowledge.
So, basically the same but with an extra step that might be bullshit.
Cool.
Yup, basically
I'm on the other side, but what LLMs did - they taught me to cherish unique content creators. Just a week ago I had a very specific question and an indian guy on YT put an effort to draw diagrams explaining it in his video. His English was bad to be honest, but I appreciated how he fought with it and made his best to explain the subject at hand with all the challenges he faced. I came to enjoy people who do stuff that can't be average'd by the math machine, I came to praise weirdos like myself even more. Being unique, being yourself, being deviant is what makes you more human than you are, that's what maybe can be called your soul.
I wouldn't use a cloud AI
Self host a LLM. You actually don't need much hardware to run the smaller models and they are decent. You can install ollama and then connect to it with a client. I like Mistral the mist but Mistral nemo is pretty good even though it is slower.
Also please don't use an LLM in place of a councilor. https://www.usnews.com/news/business/articles/2024-10-25/an-ai-chatbot-pushed-a-teen-to-kill-himself-a-lawsuit-against-its-creator-alleges
You can use self hosted AI like others have mentioned but you can also use DuckDuckGo's proxy service to access some cloud AI providers. It works over Tor Browser in "Safer" security mode as well for increased anonymous access.
I agree. I also love how polite and patient it is and how it tends to have quite neutral and reasonable opinions. The excact opposite of average social media user.
