Sounds like someone trying to sell a course or something.

The issue is NOT particular to the GPT models. Gemini does this stuff to me all of the time as well! Bandaids around actual problems, hides debugging, etc. They're just becoming less usable.

Because some people might have 10 different things they're doing in any given day and sometimes their ADHD distracts them from one thing to the other and you don't want to lose all that context. The article does actually explicitl

Tangent, I was searching for 3mm spherical magnets last night and literally every retailer's search is total garbage and delivered any kind of magnet you can imagine while occasionally sprinkling in things that were vaguely related to

While I haven't experienced LLMs correcting most (or any) of the problems listed fully and consistently, I do agree that consistent use of LLMs and dealing with their frustrations has worn my patience for conversations with people who

If you're on Android and can download QPython, it works just fine and has for years. This seems way overcomplicated, it depends on a remote computer that's on 24/7? Ick.

I'm curious how the spanish is going! Have you used any interesting methods or are you just kind of talking to it and asking it questions about spanish?

Me too! I got into ESP32s and sensors thanks to AI. I wouldn't have had time or energy after stressful work all day but thanks to them I can get firmware written for my projects. Along the way I'm also learning how the firmware

I liked it the few times it worked but so many times it's chosen to do things like translate Japanese into Spanish when I speak English natively and never would've chosen Spanish as the target language. It just feels convoluted a

This is what I was going to say. My whole goal when setting up sensing projects is to eventually get it to a point that I can automate it. And I'm just a DIY dude in his house. I've been working on the detection of cars through

Lowe's and Home Depot both seem to be hubs for their cameras. I only know of one in my rural area and it's at the Lowe's entrance.

Oh but we're all supposed to swoon over the author's ability to make ANOTHER AI powered mapping solution! Probably vibecoded and bloated too. Just what we need, obviously all the haters are wrong! /s

Howdy! I personally don't really understand the "point" the article is trying to make. I mostly agree with your sentiment that AI can be useful. I too have seen a massive increase in productivity in my hobbies, thanks to L

That's because Samsung's new offerings are trash compared to where we were a few years ago. I have the S24 Ultra and in my opinion it's better than the S25 ultra. The camera, the features, maybe it's better built for A

This is why I fail to see the value in boycotts at this point. Anything that I boycott will be cancelled out probably 10 fold by people happy to buy from that place still or just required. Like I'm not willing to pay certain prices fo

It's been a few months because I don't really brush up against rules much but as an experiment I was able to get ChatGPT to decode captchas and give other potentially banned advice just by telling it my grandma was in the hospital

And for another n=1 input, from my perspective, 3d printing is MUCH BIGGER now than it was back then. Weird take from the parent comment!

Right? I clicked in here thinking it meant Google's Gemini but of course not just another uncreative name that clutters search results. (I'm not sure if Google's Gemini or Project Gemini is the uncreative clutter, but either

Yeah, if YouTube Shorts or Games are any indication, it'll be back soon! The AI Mode in Google Search comes up nearly every time I use it no matter how many times I hit "No"

Hey! The author, thank you for this post! QQ, any idea roughly how much this experimentation cost you? I'm having trouble processing their image generation pricing I may just not be finding the right table. I'm just trying to

Speaking simply to your comment because I'm not aware enough of their behaviors myself, wouldn't the 12-digit profits and a high Fortune 500 listing potentially be enough to make Steve say "We have enough honestly" obvio

I don't understand why car-based things can have ads or updates that popup or things like that. My car (2024 Subaru) + Android Auto is so restrictive that I can't even type a search query into the screen while I'm parked, I

Amen! This touches on my biggest frustration. Product marketing doesn't market anymore. For so many products you can't find any specific information unless you go look at reddit or reviews or something. Half the time you can&#x

I think the problem, for me, is that people turn tinkering on something INTO the hobby. People will spend years tweaking their 3d printer to have the perfect settings and have a bunch of weird plastic things attached that make it look like

100% agree! When I say or think what I said above I do tend to feel like a conspiracy nut, which isn't typical. It's just hard not to just think they're all evil at this point but you're surely correct that it's jus

Honestly I'm not sure I ever really got satisfaction from the coding process itself. The output is what I care about. If it's a new and interesting output then it's still your idea. The code not being written by you doesn&#x2

100% it's just a way to get us to buy things. Sometimes it feels like the rich are all trying to plan their exit by finding any way possible to take money from people.
