This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yeah AI can be wonky, but what idiot would spend a shitload of money on a graphics card without even being willing to click an article and read a bit?
It's on you if you do that. Even if the AI shit worked way better, why would you trust there aren't shady things happening to influence the AI and have you spend more money.
My dad falls into this category he constantly replaces things with way worse things just because they are new, I can't get my mind how he can replace really good working stuff with new junk that isn't even capable of doing the job .
Wish I was joking but he does this constantly.
Thats where you say “hey dad do you still need this janky old…”
Then when the new stuf breaks you can come over and be the hero using his old reliable stuff.
If only he tends to give these things to the conmen installing the junk. I've tried to stop him wasting his money so many times but it's futile I've tried to use his latest oven he had an amazing one before but when I tried to use the new one following every instruction he said and the actual manual I looked up online myself the food came out later absolutely fridge cold.
He insists his new cooker is brilliant, what can you do with that response to something that's obviously broken from new and he should be returning.
He might need a home but I can't do that to him truthfully, I just wish he had some common sense when it comes to things like appliances etc.
Here is what kagi delivers with the same prompt:
NB: quick answer is only generated when ending your search with a question mark
Problem is, you cannot trust it's not hallucinating these stats
And even if it's showing the correct number, you can't be sure how trustworthy the source is.
This applies to any information though, it’s got nothing to do with LLMs specifically.
Not really, no. Sources of infornation gain a reputation as time goes on. So, even though you should still check with multiple sources, you can sort of know if a certain bit of information is likely to be correct or not.
On the other hand, LLM's will quote different sources and sometimes it will only provide them if you ask it to. Even then it sometimes hallucinates the sources so there's that.
At least it's citing sources and you can check to make sure. And from my anecdotal evidence it has been pretty good so far. It also told me on some occasions that the queried information was not found in it's sources instead of just making something up. But it's not perfect for sure, it's always better to do manual research but for a first impression and to find some entry points I've found it useful so far
The problem is that you need to check those sources today make sure it's not just making up bullshit and at that point you didn't gain anything from the genai
As I said the links provide some entry points for further research. It's providing some use to me because I don't need to check every search result. But to each their own and I understand the general scepticism of generative "AI"
The sources are the same result of the search? Or at least the top results?
If you don't check everyone source. It might be just bullshitting you. There's people who followed your approach and got into hot shots with their bosses and judges
There is absolutely value in something compiling sources for you to personally review. Anyone who cannot use AI efficiently is analogous to someone who can't see the utility in a graphing calculator. It's not magic, it's a tool. And tools need to be used precisely, and for appropriate purposes.
My plumber fucks up I don't blame his wrench. My lawyers don't vet their case work, I blame them.
It's an LLM. Odds are it's hallucinating the sources and they don't even exist.
Know what does compile sources for you which are guaranteed to exist and be related to what you're looking for..? A good old not LLM infected search engine.
If my plumber replaces their wrench for a rabid gerbil claiming it'll be just as good I'm definitely changing plumbers.
Spoken like someone who never even tried to use an LLM and just parrots the bad things they hear online.
Lemmy is full of LLM haters, I get where they're coming from but they take it to the extreme every single time.
When I query an AI I always end with "provide sources and bibliography for your reply". That seems to get better replies.
That being said, I can't trust MKBHD is not hallucinating either.
Its not artificial intelligence, its artificial idiocy
Nah. It's real idiocy.
It's all probability, what's the most probable idiocy someone would answer?
Sounds like the advice you'd get in the first three comments asking a question on Reddit.
I wonder where they trained the AI model to answer such a question lol.
Don't forget the glue on the pizza
You can do this with practically any versus question and get hilarious results
This doesn't appear to be comparing them, though? Just explaining what two acronyms are?
Yeah I should have mentioned the context is FBLA, and Google partially fixed the prompt.
Original from a few weeks ago:
BPA is another student org called Business Professionals of America
The AI ignores the subject context and just compares whatever is the most common acronym.
They lazy patched it by making the model do a subject check on the result, but not on the prompt so it still comes back with the chemical lol.
7900 XTX; more powerful, therefore better.
7900 XT; cheaper, therefore better.
