    what the fuck is up with this sub and people USING AI to “prove how dumb it is”?? you don’t need to use AI to come to that conclusion. do you have any idea the scale of resources you and ppl like you are wasting just to make your stupid fucking point? this isn’t a fuck AI sub it’s just a place where people who very much use AI complain that it isn’t good enough

      I don’t like prompting AI myself, I just took someone else’s screenshot and posted it here.

      That very short examples aren’t that burdensome, the real resource load hits on generating videos or anything where it might go off for several minutes, or make paragraphs.

      The problem with refraining from using it and saying “well obviously it sucks” is that folks don’t believe. They say “yeah, well, that night have been how ChatGPT 8.1 was., but it probably works fine with ChatGPT 8.2”. The narrative is eternally “we were broken but fixed it all in our new version”, and without ongoing examples, they get to own the narrative and critics are just “luddites”.

      Hell someone was saying how awesome Gemini was at codegen, so I showed it totally screwing up to the folks. Someone said “well, honestly, Gemini sucks for code, but Opus 4.6 is incredible.”. So a few days later I bother to do a similar example with opus 4.6. some guy in the room said “well, actually Gemini is better than opus for coding”. These people are absurd…

      this isn’t a fuck AI sub

      It’s literally called “Fuck AI” though, so you can’t blame people for being confused.

        i think he means that its a bit pointless to nitpick little things like this, when there are bigger and more severe problems with ai. at least that is how i see it. And is it a bit bad to use slopmachine to prove the obvious when they waste resources?

        Though I hope you share this outwards too, so people outside this community also see this, so is it pointless or not depends on how much effect it has on the actual llm hype. I doubt anyone here needs any convincing.

          The little things are indicative of larger scale problems though. If an LLM gets simpler things wrong, what happens with more complex topics like science, medicine etc where the operator doesnt understand the full extent of the result.

            well, yeah. llms are unreliable all the way. While they do have some use, trusting them at all is always a mistake. The problem is that so many people seem to trust them to the point of getting a psychosis.

      As long as people are not paying to use them, I say use them as much as you want.

      This will just make the AI companies run out of money quicker.

      If you don’t use that, then a paying user will use it anyway, which is worse.
