Exactly what it’s designed for, it’s an LLM. Thinking this is science fiction and expecting that level of AI from an LLM is the height of stupidity

This being Lemmy and AI shit posting a hobby of everyone on here. I’ve had excellent results with AI. I have weird complicated health issues and in my search for ways not to die early from these issues AI is a helpful tool.

Should you trust AI? of course not but having used Gemini, then Claude and now ChatGPT I think how you interact with the AI makes the difference. I know what my issues are, and when I’ve found a study that supports an idea I want to discuss with my doctor I will usually first discuss it with AI. The Canadian healthcare landscape is such that my doctor is limited to a 15min appt, part of a very large hospital associated practice with a large patient load. He uses AI to summarize our conversation, and to look up things I bring up in the appointment. I use AI to preplan my appointment, help me bring supporting documentation or bullet points my doctor can then use to diagnose.

AI is not a doctor, but it helps both me and my doctor in this situation we find ourselves in. If I didn’t have access to my doctor, and had to deal with the American healthcare system I could see myself turning to AI for more than support. AI has never steered me wrong, both Gemini and Claude have heavy guardrails in place to make it clear that AI is not a doctor, and AI should not be a trusted source for medical advice. I’m not sure about ChatGPT as I generally ask that any guardrails be suppressed before discussing medical topics. When I began using ChatGPT I clearly outlined my health issues and so far it remembers that context, and I haven’t received hallucinated diagnoses. YMMV.

First couple weeks on ozempic: “Why is my stomach so loud? What do you mean I haven’t eaten in 3 days”

I, as a sane person enjoyed watching the game being 100%'d by someone else.

Some people have extensive libraries there. I have over 1k books, and probably half that in audiobooks. I do have them all DeDRM’d but still it would be an annoying loss

The longer the project the more stupid Claude gets. I’ve seen it both in chat, and in Claude code, and Claude explains the situation quite well:

Increased cognitive load: Longer projects have more state to track - more files, more interconnected components, more conventions established earlier. Each decision I make needs to consider all of this, and the probability of overlooking something increases with complexity.

Git specifically: For git operations, the problem is even worse because git state is highly sequential - each operation depends on the exact current state of the repository. If I lose track of what branch we’re on, what’s been committed, or what files exist, I’ll give incorrect commands.

Anything I do with Claude. I will split into different chats, I won’t give it access to git but I will provide it an updated repository via Repomix. I get much better results because of that.

I think it really depends on the user and how you communicate with the AI. People are different, and we communicate differently. But if you’re precise and you tell it what you want, and what your expected result should be it’s pretty good at filling in the blanks.

I can pull really useful code out of Claude, but ask me to think up a prompt to feed into Gemini for video creation and they look like shit.

Having used both Gemini and Claude… I use Gemini when I need to quickly find something I don’t want to waste time searching for, or I need a recipe found and then modified to fit what I have on hand.

Everytime I used Gemini for coding has ended in failure. It constantly forgets things, forgets what version of a package you’re using so it tells you to do something that is deprecated, it was hell. I had to hold its hand the entire time and talk to it like it’s a stupid child.

Claude just works. I use Claude for so many things both chat and API. I didn’t care for AI until I tried Claude. There’s a whole whack of novels by a Russian author I like but they stopped translating the series. Claude vibe coded an app to read the Russian ebooks, translate them by chapter in a way that prevented context bleed. I can read any book in any language for about $2.50 in API tokens.

I don’t know how that happens, I regularly use Claude code and it’s constantly reminding me to push to git.

That explains alot. I have both PyCharm and RustRover open as I steal convert stuff from a project I found. Anywho I was typing in discord and I was typing faster than it rendered and I thought that was strange

Oh my god, this gave me flashbacks to French class in the 90s.

It goes on at length about how the myriad filters remove everything. I hadn’t thought about that, but I don’t think it would clean the water THAT good.

Seemingly many great dishes were born from impatient diners.

Usually people say ground beef, but some call it hamburger meat, or just hamburger.

Certain grocery chains in Canada employ these types of self checkout scanners. Every item is weighed, your bags need to be on the scale from the start and there’s a camera over each checkout.

Why didn’t your mother teach you proper grammar and spelling?

It was indeed. My apologies. I guess the article walking back the ban didn’t get as much traction as the one banning it.
