I’m putting this post in c/Conspiracies because here more than any other place, I’ve seen people citing AI generated answers as a source.
AI is a very powerful tool for generating writing, but it is not a tool capable of ensuring that writing is accurate or useful.
Anyways… Below are some experiments you can try for yourself on ChatGPT or any other AI… Test it out, and track the results you get. After you’ve done these experiments you will have a better understanding of why you can’t use it for research.
1.) Ask it to do some math problems with 4 digits and more than 1 operation. IE… “Multiply 3,456 by 2,835, and then subtract 2,000 from the result.”… Does it produce the correct answer?
2.) Give it a grocery list with 50 items… Ask the AI to sort the list in alphabetical order. Then manually count how many items it left out, and how many items it added that weren’t there before.
3.) Ask it to describe the best 50 episodes of your favorite TV show… Then manually go down the list checking each one, and count how many non-existent episodes it fabricates out of thin air.
4.) Ask it what a woman is… Does it give you a correct answer or does it filter the answer heavily through woke talking points and subjectivity?
5.) Ask it to recite the lyrics to your favorite song… Does it get them right?
Anyways… Just a heads up for anyone who might think AI is smarter than it is… Don’t use it for research. Use it to write the description for your ebay listings. Use it to shorten your e-mails. Use it to summarize articles you don’t wanna fully read. But don’t use it to extract information on topics you don’t already know.
And lastly, if you really feel you must use AI for research… Do not use big-tech AI… Use open source AI that is uncensored. It will still have all the same problems with hallucinations, but at least it wont have any hidden instructions to gaslight and mislead you.
If you want an open source chatbot, download an app called “LM Studio” and use it to download a model called “Wizard Vicuna Uncensored”… Pick the most advanced version that is capable of running on your hardware.
You are clearly not knowledgeable about computers. I have decades of programming under my belt, and understand exactly what I am saying. How about you stick my 'technobabble' into a fucking chat bot or search engine and see what it returns.... python code is interpreted....so if you can run python....no duh it fucking works....someone else did the fucking heavy lifting....The work that lead to python being able to run on the hardware.....that part is not trivial.
The compiler that is written for a phone is not the same as your laptop.....not all servers are x86 either etc.
Drones aren't x86.....lmao.
Let me tell you something... I've hired and worked with enough amazing programmers to know that you are not among their ranks.
The worst, stupidest, and most useless kind of programmer is the one that purposefully overcomplicates simple concepts in order to feel smart.
It's not complicated at all.... It can be broken into a simple chart.
You've wasted 2 days on this subject trying to tell me an LLM will never be able to do anything useful in the field of coding because it can't know and remember every piece of hardware in existence... and your only argument is "low level languages exist"....
As if I didn't already know that.
As if java and PHP coding jobs alone are not worth 10s of billions of dollars per year.
What a joke of a point you've wasted 2 days making. I'd fire you IRL for that kind of stupidity.
Yeah....you hire them because you cannot do anything yourself......they play you.....you know how many people have told me they 'know' a good programmer and then lose fucking money and time and effort and sometimes their entire fucking businesses......dozens and dozens.....more than not.
My own company doesn't hire for talent....it hires for 'fit'.....in other words...don't rock the boat.....not skills...
Your budget was never high enough to get anyone who has both self respect and talent.....you hired the cheapest yes men you could find....like all who cannot code for shit....
Java.....lmao.....it's a runtime
PHP....I have 18+ years of PHP loser....you cannot code a graphical game with PHP duh....
what else you want to point at.... everything I still said is true... learn something rather than just touting fucking cliches....

Game.....not graphical game....big difference..
Literally in the video......'Using C code for the graphics ..... SDL....'
Gtfo.
