I’m imagining we are horse breeders in a time where automobiles were not perfect for transportation yet and horses were still everywhere… Not wanting to see a future potentially making us obsolete in our current job is making many people at least blind to the benefits of LLMs and at worst ignorant of the future. Some of us might still be able to drive horse carriages for old times sake, but the rest…

I admit, I’m tempted to read the AI answer when I search something; but holy crap is it a patronizing waste of time. Just now I was searching about a game and the long page of AI answer essentially boiled down to “kill stuff to get stronger,” like brah, I know, I’m trying to look up exact formulas here, you piece of shit. My questions are never answered by it, and when it tries, it’s wrong even with follow up info. Man I really could live without it, lol. Edit: oh, and this is a relatively new game but on both Google and Bing indexes, the first page and a half are clearly AI generated. Same boilerplate nothingburger answers. No surprise the search AI isn’t good, it’s regurgitating other AI answers. MAN I could live without it.

I’ve used ChatGPT to make a couple funny images. Since you can only generate one every couple days, even if it gets something wrong and you want to make a revision, “sorry I can’t do that until your timer resets,” it’s just not really worth it to try, unless you pay I guess, but I don’t want to pay for it. I’ve had it answer a couple questions that stumped Google, and it got them right, just a matter of, “we’re hanging out and we have a debate that Google/IMDb can’t easily solve” so we ask the chat bot, it gives the answer, we all agree it’s good enough, then we move on. If all the AI chat bots went away tomorrow, I wouldn’t miss them. I use Apple tech and we have the worst AI platform. I’m in the iOS/macOS 27 beta with the “New” Siri, and it’s not very good at all. I guess it’s better than the old one? Still nothing to make OpenAI (ChatGPT) worry. Never used Grok or Meta AI, and I think I tried Gemini once? Never used Claude. Asked Copilot things at work. Not work related, even though we have “Enterprise data protection” turned on, which means it won’t send your queries to the cloud or learn from you. I still don’t trust it. Definitely don’t like it. But it’s an amusing tool sometimes. If it fucked off tomorrow, it wouldn’t be soon enough, and nothing of value would be lost.

We got through workdays without LLMs only a FEW years ago. Except the hype for AI not much has changed since then. This alone should be proof that it’s possible.

Does this guy actually think the average AI-hater is also addicted to it? That person probably exists, but they’re nowhere close to the majority.
