I’m getting AI-hate fatigue, like there’s a lot of valid reasons to hate AI based on how it’s been implemented and how it’s fucking with markets regarding PC components. But it’s gotten also to a point where, just the minor things in where AI actually has a use in, it gets scrutinized anyways because it’s the norm and cool thing to hate it.

    I treat LLMs not as god-like oracles of pure truth, but rather as sounding boards to get me to consider things that I hadn’t previously. Like, I was just doing some research on home warranties, and I got some potentially valuable information that I then independently verified.

    When I don’t quite know what question to ask about the thing I want to know about, an LLM can open those pathways for me.

      I most often use GPT5.2 as an enhanced search engine. It’s very good about understanding nuance in terms of the parameters I’m searching on (way, way better than Google, for example), and can pull together a sort of ‘report’ from many different sources.
