I'm glad it's becoming shorthand for identifying AI, though. Makes it easier for me to filter it out.
I liked the emoji for ironic shitposting, but I guess I should use something else stupid instead at this point, huh
Copilot: Summarize this email? The email: 3PM works for me.
3 ok.
3 👍
"3 p.m. Friday"
Work's requiring we use it. I give it lists to turn into comma separated lists. How thrilling. The stakeholders will be pleased
You should use it to turn short sentences into the longest, most exhaustive paragraphs ever, every time you need to email one of the big wigs
That's how you get a promotion.
I wish I was kidding.
There's a... there's a team builder who works near my station. Like his literal job is to go to teams and consult on how to build better relationships. With a job like that, you know he makes the big bucks. And, uh, yeah. Every word out of his mouth was put there by an LLM. A fact he is excited to share. It's dystopian as fuck to listen to.
The extent of my use of AI: I downloaded and installed Deep Seek locally and played with it a bit. I also installed Forge AI locally. I didn't see anything of interest to me and removed it. There's no way I'm making an account on any of the online AI sites. I'll leave that to others.
It's a funny one. I forced it to give links to the information it produces, so I can check. There have been a number of 404s in those links.
They're literally using ranbow coloring and sparklies to try and catch your attention.
That you should tell you everything you need to know.
I kinda wanna ask ChatGPT what combination of sodas I need to mix in order to physically change into my fursona just to see what it does. And I mean... What if worked? 🤣
If you tell me:
🐾 What your fursona is (species, colors, vibes), and
💫 What kind of flavor or feeling you want (sweet, sharp, mystical, earthy, etc.),
I can design a custom “fursona potion” soda mix for you — complete with recipe, color, and description of what “powers” it unlocks in spirit.
Actually, you know, I don’t think I will, if that’s alright
It didn't even understand the assignment. I specifically said physically change me. 😩
It's a little funny to think that if AI was a good information tool, the worst case in this scenario should be that it is impossible and it says so. The best would be that it does all the R&D to make it real.
Ngl it was gracious with my privacy and I did end up with a Nando’s Halloween Fursona Potion Menu
I got a free three month trial for Google's AI Pro plan, and Google wouldn't shut up about the fact that I had the offer waiting, so I gave it a shot. It's been more annoying than anything else. Gemini made me feel icky when I tried it, and now I get irritating popups asking me to use an AI tool every single time I go to type something in a Doc or Sheet
My brother in Christ, I am misusing Google Sheets to plan my character builds in Final Fantasy Tactics. I have entered all the information in the sheet by hand, and it is mostly text. This information cannot be put into a graph of any kind. I do not need your help with anything.
Please increase our user count so we can get more VC funding!
I go out of my way to boycot anything that aggressively pushes AI. Companies are so fucking desperate to throw people under the bus and replace their jobs with AI these days. I've seen literal job application forms asking you to mention how you use AI in your life, at this point in life I'm looking forward to WW3
I've yet to see AI for any of the things I'd actually like it for. It'd be good if I could use it as a natural language compatible filter for my feeds, for example. I'm interested in gaming news but have zero interest in a number of popular genres, settings, and so forth. Having an AI look at the feed and be able to spot the rough shape of stuff I don't care about and throw it away would be useful to me and mistakes wouldn't matter.
Similarly I could do with something on the desktop that helps me keep my files tidy. Learn the way I'd like to do things and help me keep things sorted. If unsure, learn when I'm likely to be willing to answer questions and ask for clarification then. Worst case scenario it misfiles something and there's an interface to ask it "the file about the thing - where is that? It's not where I would expect".
Instead I've got shit like "let us summarise email for you". If the email is long enough that I'd need a summary then it's too important to be entrusted to the Hallucinatron 5000. If it's short enough that it would be safe then there's zero time saved for me. A few sentences? What an insurmountable challenge - help me, Twatbot 2.0.
Tried ai for a cr. Did perform fine. Could not reproduce yet. Was a easy one, though.
Eh it depends on how and what you use it for. It’s helped me understand how I learn and work best, and it’s given me approaches I can actually use. I’m neurodivergent and my understanding of the world finally clicked after chatgpt compared how I think vs how everyone else thinks. So apparently a minds eye is a real thing and not a metaphor…. And also songs do literally get stuck in peoples heads…. Again not a metaphor.
AI bad, pls give upvotes
me too, thanks.
