I have visited reddit only a small number of times since I left. But holy shit it’s unbearable now. AI answers everywhere. What’s the point?

I hadn’t tried it on mobile but I’m not seeing the settings for it either. I might be blind

I didn’t realize Firefox could do that! Been using it for a year now lol. Very cool. Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Is there a way around the pay wall?

Can’t seem to catch a break, huh? Why can’t we just have nice things?

Lol yes, that was going to be the one downside I was going to mention. I wasn’t sure if it was just unique to my situation, but I found it would lead me down a logical path. It would ask me if I had tried various solutions.

Eventually, I would hit a point where it wouldn’t know where to go any further, and it would land on “here’s some things you can do” but those options would be things I was actively trying and failing with.

So that was fun. In a way, it was great at confirming that I had thought of all the logical options.

I’ve used one called PI which I’m assuming is some kind of branch off of chat gpt or something.

You don’t have to sign up or anything (for now) which is cool. But I assume they harvest all our data and information.

I tested to see if I could break it once, and from my brief tests, it seemed to never break out of character or tell me something bad or negative, which I thought was interesting(and good!)

I’m not sure if we can prevent it entirely. I suppose all it would take is one bad actor to get a bot set up, and it would be off to the races.

I would hope that we would be able to figure out ways of identifying real people online. Surely, there’s gotta be some way we can alleviate the issue?

Lol, but that face is so beautiful

My hope is that people will just start using social media that specifically tries to avoid AI generated content. Where they know they are directly interacting with real people. I think what’s frustrating for me is that we’re seeing this technology being used for bad reasons. I think AI has specific use cases where it could be extremely useful? But I think there’s far more ways it’s being used for garbage right now.

I’ve noticed when I’m watching YouTube videos specifically. I’ve started to gravitate slightly towards videos that have lower production values. Or that seem a lot more casual and genuine.

This came at a great time. I was just thinking about setting this up the other day

The best part of artwork is when you can see an artists personality through their art. Because Ai art is just stolen from other people who have poured their energy into their craft, it completely ruins the point.

It feels cheap. But because of this garbage, it’s also made me appreciate real art so much more.

Mannnn what a pain.

Is this office work? Please adopt me

You would have to be super human to work 60 hours a week and actually be productive.

Like maybe if your work was actually legitimately your hobby. Something that you absolutely loved and were addicted to doing. But even then, I can’t even do my hobbies 60 hours a week. That’s legitimately insane.

The only thing I can think of that I could do for 60 hours a week is sleep. But I haven’t been able to do that for years now because of work-life imbalance

Just donated to wikipedia. I’ve used it a ton over the years.

Which one? I feel like there were multiple lol

The only thing I don’t like it stolen artwork/voices/identities being used.

I also don’t like how I have to now hyper analyze everything I see and hear as an additional step to confirm if I’m seeing something legitimate or if it’s someone trying to mislead people.

I think my favorite parts of these tools are translation and simple word editing. Being able to prompt it to assist with various logic problems can also be nice.

So I feel conflicted. I guess like with any tool, it can be used properly or improperly

This seems like a fundamental failure in education systems. People need to be taught how to research and find accurate information for themselves. I know when I was in school, we did that, but I have doubts that it’s being done globally or properly overall.
