I don’t need ChatGPT.

@Su_G @paulk @skinnylatte I keep using Artisanal Intelligence

[Gæst]

@skinnylatte we prefer the term mentat

[delcj@mas.to]

@hanktank61 that one's also very good

[anders_von_hadern@meerjungfrauengrotte.de]

@skinnylatte Other than that it is also well proven that in order to get information you just have to say something wrong.

[fgbjr@indieweb.social]

@skinnylatte And here I thought they were just being kind.

[cliftonr@wandering.shop]

@skinnylatte

I got rapid, detailed, and precise answers on precisely how to do the admittedly-kinda-weird technical thing I wanted to do in Linux, within 24 hours.

[thedyslexickitchenwitxh@mastodon.green]

@skinnylatte agreed. only getting into mastodon for real rn but so far ppl have been very willing to help

[mkj@social.mkj.earth]

@anders_von_hadern I think how well that works depends on *where* on the Internet you say something wrong, though.

@skinnylatte Thanks for the tip I have never used AI, somehow cannot bring myself to it. It might also be I avoid using it so that I still exercise my brain capacities? Now, if there is a problematic question, I shall now put it online for some help.

[_elena@mastodon.social]

@cwicseolfor haha I wholeheartedly agree. I have given up on searching for answers to technical things on the web, when I can just ask the question here and get brilliant advice and solutions in under 2 minutes.

There are so many incredibly smart and generous people on here, willing to help ️

@laguiri @skinnylatte

Now I'm curious, but I couldn't find it by quickly looking up in your profile.

[iris@neuromatch.social]

@skinnylatte it's the best!

[remittancegirl@mstdn.social]

@skinnylatte This is so damn true! Hahah.

Tech, cooking, sewing, legal stuff, writing, pretty much anything. We have a bottomless wealth of human knowledge here - which comes with a sense of responsibility. Something AI doesn't have.

[lionelb@expressional.social]

@skinnylatte

This.

[david_chisnall@infosec.exchange]

@skinnylatte

And, unlike ChatGPT, their replies are correct. And come with a lot of accurate citations.

[qgustavor@urusai.social]

@skinnylatte I wish it was like that for me! Last week I posted a question about making a bot and no one answered. I included relevant hashtags even.

[rachelthornsub@famichiki.jp]

@skinnylatte I highly recommend asking Mastodon if you're a #Linux noob like me. Online forums are really mean to noobs, and it's hard to just get a damned answer to your question there. People on here are way nicer and more helpful.

[tux0r@layer8.space]

@RachelThornSub @skinnylatte Honestly, it depends. One of the reasons why I love BSD and #Gentoo is that the BSD and Gentoo communities are *very* inviting and there are (almost) no questions considered "too dumb".

[kleines_z@queer.group]

@skinnylatte
And if someone hallucinates bullshit into your replies, there are at least other people who'll know that it's bullshit and tell you that.

I think this XKCD sums it up perfectly -
