@grammargirl@zirk.us But what actually is the point of using it if I have to confirm all facts? Can’t I just skip the middleman?

    @feisty_lemming@zeroes.ca It depends on what you're using it for. If you're fact checking, it can be faster to put in a document and say something like "Fact check this piece. Show your sources," which gives you a list of links to click and check. It's faster than putting each thing you want to check into Google and then sorting through the links (and now the AI slop too). It will also surface relevant links you may have missed that don't show up in the first 10 or 20 on Google.

    @feisty_lemming@zeroes.ca @grammargirl@zirk.us Indeed, there is no point in using #GenAI if you have to confirm all the facts; you'll do better to just skip the middleman

    @feisty_lemming@zeroes.ca If your boss doesn't demand the use, you can live and work perfectly without LLMs and GPTs. A life without is possible. (And better for the environment and climate). @grammargirl@zirk.us
