I'm slowly finding uses for ai and I dont like it :( It's helping me navigate linux and troubleshoot game or pc crashes
All things that could have been easily looked up before google borked itself.
Complicated multi-variable problems were never easy to Google.
Possible, if you were prepared to put some time in, but still not easy.
That you can explain several paragraphs of the details of a problem as a prompt and get a decent answer is a definitive upgrade.
I see the argument it will reduce peoples research abilities, but thats an education problem.
Occasionally I grudgingly think maybe there might be some limited use for ai, and then the ai I can't turn off at my job will attempt to proof a document about fire safety and really confidently want the word 'exciting' instead of 'exiting' in regards to stairwells and fire emergencies. It also wants staff to congratulate outside a burning building rather than congregate—which, fair.
Yes. AI provides access - often even to folks who would have no other way to get started. That's a good thing..
