Honestly what AI outputs is what I think a majority of the people want anyways. They want an answer to something in most cases.
I do the same damn thing. When I want information distilled to me in a manner which is quick and easy to process, I use something like an LLM to reduce the complexity down.
I also use https://www.summarize.tech/ a LOT for YouTube videos to get to the part that matters, or just simply make it text-searchable.
what AI outputs is what I think a majority of the people want anyways. They want an answer to something in most cases.
When I ask a question I want a correct answer, not one that is merely statistically likely. Using an AI and not fact checking it means you will never know if the answer given to your question is true. The AI tells you what it thinks you want to hear, not what it knows is true, because it doesn’t know anything, it’s a pattern matcher.
Well, when other people ask a question, they get a page of jumbled answers, and I think we’ve proven that Karen cannot be expected to “do her own research”. AI will give a more correct answer 99/100 times.
I’d love to know what questions you’ve asked an LLM and gotten wrong answers from – with the exceptions of math and continuity questions, which we already understand LLMs have trouble with.
Not who you were speaking to, but there’s at least one infamous example about a mycology book on amazon that was presumably copy pasted from LLM output. It is the same issue my professors had with people who copy-pasted from wikipedia. It is mostly right, but there is no real reason to believe it unless you can check the answer, and many people don’t understand that.
But it’s like asking your very smart child to find the information for you.
The child is still learning so it only takes information that it was exposed to and has access to and it never questions or critically analyses the data.
So all the information, disinformation, misinformation and non information that the childlike AI collects is fed back to you as a giant word salad and presented as actual information without any critical thought.
What if I ask my averagely smart child to ask an AI for me because my idiot luddite brain can’t be arsed to do it myself? I just hope all the different sorts of stupid cancel each other out.
I know the hate for it abounds, but this is why I’ll often just try to look stuff up in a chat box with an AI, browsing has become exhausting.

Right. Lots of other use cases though.
Great translations!

Thank fucking God. I hate YouTube tutorials
