    Narrow boundaries? I don’t use Google primarily due to the waste of time going through pages upon pages of information I’m looking for.

    Just about my entire IT team uses AI for searching IT related issues and solutions to those issues. However, I personally apply it to other subject matters besides IT.

          When time is precious, use AI for all your glue in pizza queries.

          Of course, Google is also crapified, but at least there is still a search engine underneath.

                Yep clearly it’s over my head, brah. The only point I’m making is that I no longer rely on Google for certain information. The reason being is that I’d have to go through 10 pages of reading online forum posts to find a solution to a problem. Where as with AI, it takes all the available information and provides me either 1 solution or multiple solutions all within one shot. Sometimes the information it provides is incorrect and more than likely it just has to do with how I’m phrasing the question. When I rephrase the question, then it provides the answer I’m looking for.

                So do I spend 1 hour reading through posts from different online forum boards to find my answer, or do I spend 1 minute, hell even 10 minutes, asking a question and having a summary of answer(s) provided to me?

                Call me an idiot if it makes you feel better, but I’m getting the results I require and saving time.

              it’s funny how you say “it provides correct answers”, dump six paragraphs of half-baked, malformatted instructions (that, if followed, spawn an endless stream of non-terminating powershell processes), then ten minutes later admit in a different comment that “sometimes the information it provides is incorrect”

              wait no funny isn’t the correct word is it

                Yeah, sometimes I have to rephrase my question. I admitted that. That’s how AI works. And those instructions worked exactly how it should for our needs.

                So is this community anti-AI?

                LMAO the hostility is wild. Is this community just entirely anti-AI? Is that what I’m missing?

                  Yeah, I don’t get it. I think they’re referring to the hallucination problem. If it works for you and your needs, godspeed.
