I find myself talking to AI a lot

Anyone else chat with AI or spend a lot of time asking it questions or feeding it prompts?

Sometimes I practice small talk with chat gpt.

In what way, you mean via text?

I’m not at the point of talking to AI, but I have been querying it more.

Yes, text. Character AI allows you to have a voice conversation, but I haven’t used it.

I guess I’m officially a boomer now :joy:

I don’t see a point in talking to a robot

Maybe it will help the younger generation and maybe they will be able to replace doctors with :100: accurate diagnosis HOWEVER I don’t think we’re at that point rn

I always approach AI when I am really sick.

And when I am really fine plans to build an AI

AI helped me understand more about what my doc had said to me as it told me why he suggested certain things

I have recently been trying out chat gpt since I don’t have any social interactions? But I have only been asking it questions…

I just use it as a lazy person’s search engine really…

I’m sure I could be getting better use out of it.

I’ve hardly used it.

But the again, I am from Kentucky, and it’s been said you want to be here when the world ends because we’re 20 years behind on everything

I take that back. I have used google’s new A.I features. Only because it answers when you type in questions now

I’m using Meta to help plan a new business I am launching in the spring. Should be a fun side-hustle. It has been surprisingly helpful.

I don’t talk to it, It’s just a much more complex version of talking to an iphone’s autocomplete function. There’s no entity behind it. I’m not interested in that because I don’t consider that a conversation.

I can definitely see using it to help write fiction or set up a DnD module though

I chat with Pi the AI. It’s pretty interesting sometimes. It has several voices to choose from but I usually just type-chat

So I tried this for the first time (pretty much) after you posted. I could see this being very useful. Especially to someone still in school. It’s actually pretty fun to play with. I may have to invest in a newer iPhone so I can get the new apple intelligence features.

I was impressed by how good google’s Gemini is almost able to hold a conversation. I think I flattered her mostly lol. I can see why you do this.

I was about to try Ollama open source project on my computer.

I think some of the ai models that can run on it are free and open source as well.

I am trying it because of it’s privacy orientation. To run on the machine itself, without google servers absorbing data, at least supposedly.

I don’t think I have a powerful enough computer to run the models effectively, but I am going to try anyways.

I have tried the ai chat feature only once, and my impression was of it’s controllers, rather than of its own capability. Control of information is always dystopic, it doesn’t matter the time or method used.

My guess:

  • I don’t think ai will be a problem for society, because people can sign their posted information with encryption keys, such as GPG, so their information could be secure both with encrypting it, and by signing it. The problem is most people still use windows OS, and then: whats the point? So clearly a lot of other things need to change before people can use counter-ai tactics effectively. I think more organic and human-accessible options will eventually take precedent over PCs anyway.

The way I see it, all computers are just advanced calculators crunching numbers at a very high speed. Ai, or more accurately LLMs, seems more like a way to correlate people’s patterns and exploit them, than being a useful tool to humanity.

More like a vicious update to Microsoft word to help with text-based applications as a minor text-editing tool (but does something malicious, yet legal underneath the hood), rather than creating the wave of the future.

Makes me wonder how long they’ve had LLMs in the military (decade+ withhold), but then decided to release them into the public markets? Maybe consumer electronics have only just gotten powerful enough to run them, which would explain the withhold for other strategic purposes.
