In two years I’ve paid $104,000 to my mortgage!

…why is it only $17,000 lower…

“These phantom job postings aren’t just wasting your time. They’re stalling your career while destroying your confidence.”

The most ghastly AI phrase, gave up reading right there.

You can login and it’ll stop with the pop ups for a year.

I mean, it cited the exact line in the other hospitals EA, that’s what deep research mode does. Methinks you don’t know how far chatgpt has come, and are just basing it off of the original models?

helping along the death of the internet

Am I? Chastising those on Lemmy for using AI, are they the cause of the dead internet theory? Or is that caused by bot farms manipulating social media algorithms? Just because a hammer builds weapons doesn’t mean one should ban the hammer.

You may not contribute to scraped sites

I disagree, AI is likely a solution to worsening forums and the like - boring old repeated questions will be answered by AI, anything more unique and interesting will be asked of real people.

I like gathering information

Unless you’re doing your own physical research on every possible query and question, you’re just as complicit as an AI user for gathering secondary information. You reading a blog post on a topic is no better than me reading an AI summary of 1,000 blog posts.

Bubble bursts

That’s like getting angry at McDonalds for the 80s recession, because a bunch of secondary investors bet on it’s perpetual success. Thats not the fault of McDonalds OR LLMs.

These are lazy, illogical complaints about a new technology from reactionary conservative thinking, the same thing was said about the internet when you were younger, of TV when your parents were younger, and of the radio, and of the phonograph, and of the camera etc etc. Get with the times OLD MAN.

I mean, sure, if you use it to write an essay of course it’s gonna impede knowledge retention. But that’s the equivalent of going “the ctrl-c/ctrl-v command is associated with reduced pre-frontal cortex activation”.

I mean, I don’t care if people refuse to get on board with new tech, but it screams a lack of understanding of the tech. People are going “musk bad, Altman bad, tech bro bad” and going “therefore chatgpt bad”.

Na chatgpt good, handy, I fed it my current Employee Enterprise Agreement and the previous 2, and asked via deep research for a comparison of them all, against comparable businesses to see if our pay increases were fair. Ive got a meeting today to argue for increases, after ChatGPT found that we were a little under. What a brilliant tool!

Part of the learning process is working and searching for an answer

That logic can be used to poo-poo literally any study aid. Why is watching a YouTube video on how to tamp a post superior to a chatgpt summary?

Why take the train when you should “expend an iota of effort” and make the 3 hour walk to work?

This is unsound logic that I expect on Reddit, not Lemmy. Go continue your crusade against the spinning jenny, small-minded Luddite.

Fair enough, so why not use it while it’s there?

Chatgpt helped me build my garden beds, build a lamp out of an old telephone, learn Japanese grammar quirks, improve lacklustre recipes, look after my plants and stop my dog from barking. That’s this month.

I could have gone to Reddit or blogs and scrounged around for hours/days to find that info, but chatgpt had already aggregated it and neatly presented it.

The Luddites who refuse to use AI are simply that. You either don’t understand it’s weaknesses and learn to work around them, or you’re becoming your techphobic grandparents.

Eww Bad Empanada? That guy is unreasonably gross.

Deep cut

Imagining complaining about someone tipping out fresh water, while eating a burger when a single kilo of beef uses between 15,000 to 200,000 liters.

Like, until you stop doing the worst thing a single consumer can do to the planet for literally nothing but greed and pleasure (eating meat instead of healthier alternatives), you have no leg to criticize.

The holocaust was well scaled too. Animal ag is responsible for 15-20% of the entire planets GHG emissions. You can live a healthier, more morally consistent life if you give up meat.

1 beef burger is equivalent in water consumption to 7.5million chatgpt queries.

All the people here chastising LLMs for resource wastage, I swear to god if you aren’t vegan…

Oh god I didn’t even notice I was replying to you.

Gross, you’re the worst, most bad faith debater I’ve ever had the displeasure of talking to.

You don’t argue in any sense of data or fact, just shitty little retorts amounting to nothing more than “no, actually”.

Don’t bother replying, I’m blocking you across all instances until you get an education, maybe when you turn 18 or something.

Meat products are, per kilo, much more costly for their nutrient profiles compared with plant based alternatives. Any time meat is comparable, this is because of government subsidies. There’s a reason third world countries rely on plant based foods, because they’re objectively cheaper.

There are many cultural practises that we’ve left in the past. Culture is not an excuse for doing objectively amoral things. I can’t say it’s my culture to sacrifice children, even if it is.

I’d put convenience under the umbrella of pleasure. If we all lived our life based on convenience, people would drink drive, people wouldn’t care about consent, just because it’s easier doesn’t mean it’s right.

If my morality was based on whether it cause friction with my family, what weak morals I would have? “In this house, we say the N word!”, “okay yes sorry mum, here I go saying the n word again!” Like, stick up for what’s right, don’t crumble because it might upset those who are objectively morally incorrect.

Plant based food is objectively cheaper, culture doesn’t permit amoral acts, convenience isn’t a valid reason to do wrong, and if mild social pressure from family is enough to cause one to act immoral, then those morals were pretty flimsy to begin with.

Why doesn’t your mother take a vitamin?

Can you… Provide some of those reasons?
