A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Do You Disregard People IRL who You Know ask AI everything? (lemmy.today)

Now a days people refer to AI instantly for an answer. Maybe it's a problem they could have solved within 10min in their head or a question they could have done an internet search on and read a few forums to figure out. However, now people go straight to AI which is known to give many many wrong answers.

I know a couple people that fit this bill and now I almost completely disregard what they say. We'll even be talking face to face and they'll ask AI something from our conversation in real time.

I might need to ask chatgpt to reply to this comment.

In fact if i ever see your username around i will put it into chatgpt and ask it to generate a reply for me, because i can't think for myself.

Sarcasm aside, i don't believe i've ever asked calculator to answer biology question for me. New normal or not, if the tool serve the purpose of a niche use and ease a particular pain point of a job/routine, then it's a proper tool. If the tool meant to replace and impede logical and critical thinking, it's a weapon against personal intellectual, and i'm genuinely worry about that. The lack of critical thinking and nuance in today society of instant gratification is already bad, in fact it's so bad that the climate changed to what we experienced today, and many people still refused to just wake up a bit and think for themselves. The new normal is people just follow what billionaire said, and you think it's okay.
