    Odd, no matter how many people keep insisting it’s a scam and it doesn’t work, it nevertheless keeps on working when I use it.

    Maybe they’re not using it right.

      I have a theory that supporters of genAI or LLMs are lonely angry neets who just want a sense of control in their radically tumultuous lives.

      care to weigh in on my theory of when AI started to help out with this moment in your life?

          “Why are they pushing AI? Nobody wants this!” Meanwhile chatgpt.com is the fifth-most-visited website in the world.

          But I suppose people can just wrap themselves in a social media bubble where anyone who say something positive about AI gets downvoted through the floor, and then their view of the world gets curated to look a bit more like how they want it to be.

            There’s a big difference between having a website that you can choose to engage with and having LLMs jammed into your device’s operating system or programming IDE that make you jump through hoops just to disable them (or your email and then be told your emails are going to be used in training and if you don’t want that you have to turn off all the smart features, including the ones that aren’t LLM-based).

            There would be certain use cases I’d be open to, but at least give me a choice when deploying it out as to whether it’s on or off, what it has access to and make it easy to change those settings.

              Right. The website that people choose to engage with shows that people are choosing to engage with AI without being forced to. It shows that the demand for AI is organic and real. Lots of people want to use AI.

            the overwhelming majority of chatbot users run on average about 5 prompts per week, or less than one prompt per day, according to OpenAI’s own usage stats.

              Okay. Not sure the relevance, though. They’re not forced to use it, they choose to go to that site and write those prompts because they want to.
