Put your hands up if you are pissed with hearing about AI

As mentioned, I was on a math/programatically thing with ChatGPT. Especally the suggestions from ChatGPT (usually an iteration when ChatGPT delivered not the expected solution *1) ) on a question leads me to the conclusion, that it is not simply an answer based on statistics what the next word will be. *1) But yes, sometimes ChatGPT starts to repeat itself if one claims a mistake in the answer. And that, confirms then your statement, that statistics for the next word comes into acount.... :confused: Anyway: Still confused some times when using ChatGPT, but also surprised how good it helps for easy code fragments ;) Sorry for my English. Most probably hard to understand ;)
Your English is fine! :) Requests to ChatGPT include a property (oddly enough called "temperature") that controls how much it will vary successive answers. This property simply injects a degree of randomness in its output. So it's not surprising that its answers can sometimes be completely incorrect, and not just slightly wrong. A couple of examples:
- I asked ChatGPT what would happen if I deleted a file in a folder that was synced to OneDrive when I didn't have an internet connection. It responded by saying the file would be restored to my local storage the next time I connected to OneDrive. When I asked it the same question again, it said the file would be deleted from OneDrive when a sync was established. Two completely opposite answers in quick succession! :)
- I asked ChatGPT to tell me a little bit about the app TakeStock (which happens to be written by me). It responded with a very accurate description, and included the fact that it was written by me. I then asked it what other apps Ravi Bhavnani had written and it responded with a list of apps that were completely unrelated to TakeStock and that I haven't written. I've written several other popular apps, but none of those appeared in the list. In fact the apps in the list weren't even remotely similar to any of my other freeware apps. :)
At work we use (a paid version of) ChatGPT that has been trained on our user's manuals. Our product is pretty complex (highly configurable) and its documentation set is quite large and includes several detailed troubleshooting guides. ChatGPT has been remarkably useful by allowing end users to ask questions in plain English (and soon other languages) and do away with the need to speak with a human (although that option is always available). /ravi

I'm more annoyed by the way the media have fallen upon it as something to babble endlessly and inanely about. It seems that the less they understand something, the more noise they make. I'm reminded of the Biblical warning - "bow down not before craven idols". (I'm not religious, by the way, but it nevertheless strikes me as good advice.)

I don't understand the question.

As a developer for 44 years, I hate AI. Todays development systems have so much of that garbage in them. I hate it when it keeps changing my code while I'm trying to type something. I know what I want so please stop messing with me. It really lowers my productivity.

I just see AI as another way to make people dumber than they already are... I don't see the need for it in my development projects...

So I am not the only one fed up with all the automatic code insertions... I was working on a C# project in VS 2022 and got so annoyed with this idiocy that I went back to VS 2019, where I am staying for the time being... In VS 2022 I tried setting ll of the options off that may have been supporting all the code insertions but nothing worked...

I use Bing Chat GPT for help, but yeah, I think I would be better off if we could go back to the 80's man. One of my favorite games as a child was Neuromancer. Wish they would bring the original version back so I wouldn't have to do the "dark room" emulator gig.

I'm more p---ed off about people (read: members of the media) who have no idea how generative AI works claiming it will solve the world's problems and/or bring an end to civilization as we know it. :-D Transformer ANNs in particular are very useful when trained on a vetted and well bounded corpus of text (e.g. user's manuals for software, service manuals for machinery, the works of Shakespeare, the IRS tax code, etc.) Persons who rely on the publicly available version of ChatGPT to do their homework or answer questions of any significance are only fooling themselves. /ravi

The Media has become a in your face we need to be everywhere Back in the day (yes I am 77 years old) you picked up a magazine or newspaper and would read what you wanted. You watched or listened to these medias when you wanted to TODAY the phone wants to tell you everything when you contact a friend and with that phone usage you can link your usage information with your a computer WHY is this happening it is called revenue from Ads I have a cell phone and learned the lesson when I first had a flip phone NO ONE gets my phone number if they demand I give them the White House Number Drivers most companies crazy when I say I Do Not Have A Phone Safeway has $2.00 off on Ice Cream if you scan the coupon price tag So my question is am I being discriminated against if I do not have a phone? I used AI to solve a C# & VB.Net question at this site LINK BELOW How do I find the 4th Tuesday of the Month ? The answer was very useful to understand it you need a working knowledge of coding and most important how to ask the question Code Generator - CodePal[^]
