  • Yeah, I remember going through that period when started learning English, but also attending other classes that I was passionate about and didn’t want to wait.

    I understood everything the teacher said, but tough luck if I had any question. I remember trying to ask once and teacher trying to figure out what I was asking.



  • I’m a software developer and I say that AI is the greatest force-multiplier that’s been introduced into the field since the compiler.

    As a person who works with coworkers who fully embraced it, it doesn’t look like they are any faster. There is one group that is faster, but they don’t verify their code and provide burden of it on another person who reviews PR to go through their shit code (sorry, but it is unnecessarily complex, does things in weird ways, I’ve seen it had bugs that even canceled each other (I guess this is probably due to re-running until things work))


  • People say the best way to see this is asking AI about subject you’re expert of.

    This is not always possible, I had people who said “but I’m not expert at anything”. Another way is to ask them about yourselves. For example if you have reddit account that is has some age, Gemini has deal with reddit and feeds them everything that’s posted. First response might even look good, but continue talking (as it is getting more ridiculous), don’t try correct, you can see how it is making shit up.

    Since they are feeding it with everything lemmy might also work.







  • That’s a valid point, but one cannot say that it “literally never worked” because it does.

    Most of my spam was “legitimate” telemarketers, because I only give my phone to legitimate businesses, never provided it for some surveys and other crap that requests it. Also when I get a call that I don’t recognize I just let it go to voice mail.







  • But then what’s the point to send that information at all is it is so unreliable?

    I’m pretty sure any of those scenarios you provided could have solution that would still not compromise reliability.

    For example if you are working for a specific company there could be a mechanism where company would give permission to identify as their number.

    I mean right now, you can spoof the number of your company and I can spoof that number too and I don’t work there, so what is the value of having that number in the first place when the recipient can’t even trust it?
