What does AI do if it doesn't have a good answer? How do you know it gave you a good answer? There are no qualities like 'that person sounded a bit useless' or 'sounds like they're reading from a script' or a

I think the interesting part of that is, is there money in it? I could see it being useful for hobbyists that don't care about programming that much, but would you pay for that?

Did you though? Can you remember any of those solutions that ChatGPT provided or why? Or are you now going to ChatGPT more and more because easier?

Does it help you learn better spelling and grammar, or do you just stop thinking about it? Is that a good thing long term? Same with dev. Does it actually make you better, or does it make you not think about learning so much?

No. That is precisely the wrong attitude. It is the 'corporate' drive to push service to be cheaper (for them) that lead to outsourced and IP poor user services, which AI will take to a whole new level of bad. What should be des

Oops my bad. That'll teach me for not going back and double-checking. But looking at it, I don't support their approach anyway.

That's what most home schooling parents are trying to replicate, problems and all.

The hubris here of their "we know what's best for your child" assertion is astounding. "We don't know what kids are learning" is a wonderful thing to hear from a government rep.

I use the art side more, which Krita is ok for and Darktable for bulk processing. It's mainly that most online guides, utils and demos are done in PS so harder to follow.

I decided a while ago that I was willing to sacrifice a few (and it's very few now - mostly just some anti-cheat using ones) games to just go Linux full time. I don't miss Windows one bit (well except Photoshop I guess :/) a

So what do they train it on then?

The downvotes are interesting here, it's amazing the cognitive dissidence that was created by the mass belief of being on 'the righteous side' of an issue: agreeing that dissidence in science is needed, but not if it's

And then we had The Twitter files, where once again the focus became attacking the journalists rather than the outrage that should have flowed from the content exposed.

Gee if only we hadn't just spent the COVID years telling everyone not to dissent on The Science.

Have you heard of all the suicides from Prozac, Zoloft, etc? Nothing like the old "but emergency now" to skip safety checks huh. Examples, Aduhelm, remdesivr, accelerated approvals in general lacking follow-up studies that are su

Oh for sure, if you're going to try and replicate 'the classroom' at home it's going to be pain. It needs some different thinking, especially around what the child does and doesn't actually need. As I said, it&#x2

So? We should not just throw the baby out with the bathwater. God forbid some people get it wrong, the current education system is not exactly the shining beacon of 'good.' If there's one thing I hate about social media espe

You have to ask who's goals and desires are in focus in these situations, I wouldn't say the child's as a first guess.

Because we've been told for so long that any other option, or especially taking into our own hands, is a disaster and our kids will 'fall behind.' And yet kids have never had more access to knowledge, information and quality

How often do you need to do that without a calculator (phone) at hand?

It's almost like parents could provide a better education for their own kids if only a) they could trust themselves and b) they had the time

Not to mention any connection device should be designed to break first. I know I would rather snap a $20 cable than damage the device itself. Much like the complaints about camera lens attachments breaking when mishandled: much better t

There's some irony introduced at the end of your post. You became that which you deride.

I would struggle with the game. Not because of the topics, but because of the sesquipedalian nature of the responses (e.g. the example responses in the article). My response would be "can you please ELI5 that so you stop wasting our t

I think it does the opposite, it makes you think about whether the company is big because of its products/services or other reasons. It's not a yes/no answer, it's a prompt.

Hooray for SEO once again enriching our experience! I await the realisation of the Hitchhiker's guide's remedy for the Marketing department...

I can't stand it. Slightly more than I can't stand old articles that show in recent searches because "last updated July 26th."

Because you don't have to think too hard about the downsides when the outcome supports your view. Everyone really also needs to remember everyone has rights, or no one has rights.
