ChatGPT4o can do some impressive and useful things. Here, Im just sending it a mediocre photo of a product with no other context, I didnt type a question. First, its identifying the subject, a drink can. Then its identifying the language used. Then its assuming I want to know about the product so its translating the text without being asked, because it knows I only read english. Then its providing background and also explaining what tamarind is and how it tastes. This is enough for me to make a fully informed decision. Google translate would require me to type the text in, and then would only translate without giving other useful info.
It was delicious.
And good luck typing that in if you don’t know the alphabet it’s written in and can’t copy/paste it.
Google: ok so the AI in search results is a good thing, got it!
The search engine LLMs suck. I’m guessing they use very small models to save compute. ChatGPT 4o and Claude 3.5 are much better.
That’s a good summary. Google Gemini is no better. Type in a question and it starts off great but then devolves into other brands, other steps to do something that isn’t related to the thing you asked. It’s just terrible and someone will sue them over it next year. Just wait.
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 round 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.
Assuming it takes its answer from search results, and the search results are all affiliate marketing sites that just want you to click on a link and buy something, this makes perfect sense.
A.I. or Assumed Intelligence
That’s pretty much it. It just assumes what the next word should be.

its not completely useless… i only asked copilot one thing and it worked; ‘how do i remove or completely disable copilot’
I love this 😂
Hello, fellow humans. I too am human, just like you! I have skin, and blood, and guts inside me, which is not at all disgusting. Just another day of human!
Won’t you share a delicious cup of
motor oillemonaide with me? It’s nice and refridgerated, so it will cool down our bodies without the use of cooling fans!However we too can use cooling fans. They will just be placed on the ceiling, or in a box, or self standing, and oscillating. Not at all inside our bodies, connected to a board controlled by our CPUs that we clearly don’t have!
Now come, let us take our colored paper with numbers and pictures of previous human rulers and exchange them for human food prepared by not fully adult humans who haven’t matured to the age where their brains develop the ability to care about food sanitation. Then we shall complain that our meal cost too many paper dollars, while recieving less and less potato stick products every year. Ignoring completely the risk of heart disease by indulging in the amounts of food we desire to aquire.
Finally we shall retreat to our place of residence, and complain on the internet that our elected leaders are performing poorly. Rather than
terminate the programvote the poor performing humans out, we shall instead complain that it is other humans fault for voting them in. Making no attempt to change our broken system that has been broken our entire existence, with no signs of improving. Instead every 4 years we will make an effort to write down names of people we’ve already complained about in the hopes that enough people write down the same names, and that will fix the problem.Oh. Shall I request amazon.com to purchase more fans and cooling units? The news being reported that tempatures will soon reach 130F on a regular basis, and all humans will slowly perish.
Shall I share photographs of the new CEO of starbucks who’s daily commute involves a personal jet aircraft, which surely isn’t compounding the problem at all?
I switched to duckduckgo before this bullshit, but this would 100% make me switch if I hadn’t already.
Who wants random ai gibberish to be the first thing they see?
Better than an Ad I guess? Not sure if my searches haven’t returned any AI stuff like this or if my brain is already ignoring them like ads.
The plan is to monetize the AI results with ads.
I’m not even sure how that works, but I don’t like it.
DuckDuckGo started showing AI results for me.
I think it uses the bing engine iirc.
Sure, but it’s trivial to turn it off. While you’re there, also turn off ads.
And you can use multiple models, which I find handy.
There is some stuff that AI, or rather LLM search, is useful for, at least the time being.
Sometimes you need some information that would require clicking through a lot of sources just to find one that has what you need. With DDG, I can ask the question to their four models*, using four different Firefox containers, copy and paste.
See how their answers align, and then identify keywords from their responses that help me craft a precise search query to identify the obscure primary source I need.
This is especially useful when you don’t know the subject that you’re searching about very well.
*ChatGPT, Claude, Llama, and Mixtral are the available models. Relatively recent versions, but you’ll have to check for yourself which ones.
If search engines don’t improve to address the AI problem, most of the Internet will be AI gibberish.
The good thing about that is that this kills the LLMs, since new models can only be trained on this LLM generated gibberish, which makes the gibberish they’ll generate even more garbled and useless, and so on, until every model you try to train can only produce random useless unintelligible garbage.
I think that ship has sailed
The internet as we knew it is doomed to be full of ai garbage. It’s a signal to noise ratio issue. It’s also part of the reason the fediverse and smaller moderated interconnected communities are so important: it keeps users more honest by making moderators more common and, if you want to, you can strictly moderate against AI generated content.
First of all, yes
Second option is no
When presented with yes / no pick no, no is the clear yes
7900 XTX; more powerful, therefore better.
7900 XT; cheaper, therefore better.
SearXNG only returns results search engines agree on. That removes ads and this bullshit
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
Garbage in, something something
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.
It’s not useless, it’s saying you can’t afford the better quality product you dirty, dirty poor.
And boy, isn’t that true
