Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I know people hate ai, but honestly Linux questions especially the low hanging fruit is perfectly answered by chat gtp etc.
Part of the reason I switched was exactly because I didn't have to google 10 different forums and could just ask for the answers. And you can keep asking clarifying questions to get more detail.
A vocal minority in a specific set of bubbles hates AI. Large numbers of people just quietly use it.
...yes, large numbers of the dumbest people on the planet, combined with the ACTUALLY vocal minority of pro-AI self-hosters who get butthurt when you call AI problematic.
The population is widely, increasingly, becoming fed up with AI. I work in the actual world, and I speak with dozens of different people every day. Resoundingly sentiment is either unaware of AI or despises it.
no offense, but "i work in the actual world" comes off rudely dismissive, and possibly a bit narrow minded. like, how did saying that help support your argument at all, and why assume others dont exist irl?
Because if someone doesn't preface with the fact that they are referring to real, lived experiences and not twitter screenshots, then they are dismissed as being chronically online.
The stuff you said? That's how you read it and perceived it, but it's not what is said. And it's not my job when arguing with people about dumb internet shit to figure out and account for how an offhand refutal comment will come off.
I also don't care if I'm being rude or snide. If you feel belittled, then you are insecure. I'm just a random douchebag on lemmy whose direct opinion of you, you shouldn't care about. So if you feel belittled, it's your own fault. Block and move on.
hope you have a better day tomorrow.
Thanks, you too! :3
Sure thing. ChatGPT is the top app on both iOS and Android for no reason. I'm sure people are just about to realise that LLMs only hallucinate and give you what you want to hear, and the world will be back to how it was.
Did you miss the "large numbers of the dumbest people on the planet" bit or are you just unable to actually parse what I'm saying and write a valid response? Are you using AI to write your dumbassery?
