"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I like using it for finding documentation that explains why x doesn't work or explain what and why.
Just getting answers is hollow. Having a research assistant speeds up the learning process. To me that is worthwhile.
I tell people if they are gonna use it, use it like a rubber duck or a RAG on devdocs.io. Wish i could limit a query to just devdocs honestly.
More often than not, that's the kind of usage that helps me to have it talk around the perimeter of a subject to the point where it stimulates me to think about the actual solution.
