I find that when I’m looking for very specific things Google is still king but DDG is much better for broad strokes.

It’ll be like when everyone started using Google maps and now they just drive 40 mph through the neighborhoods instead of waiting an extra minute on a major road.

I have a few different drives that I mirror my documents folder to, then upload the most important stuff to cloud and thumb drive too.

You made me really interested in this concept so I asked GPT-4 what the furthest word away from the word “vectorization” would be.

Interesting game! If we’re aiming for a word that’s conceptually, contextually, and semantically distant from “vectorization,” I’d pick “marshmallow.” While “vectorization” pertains to complex computational processes and mathematics, “marshmallow” is a soft, sweet confectionery. They’re quite far apart in terms of their typical contexts and meanings.

It honestly never ceases to surprise me. I’m gonna play around with some more. I do really like the idea that it’s essentially a word calculator.

For memory Samsung all day. Micro/SD cards etc the big camera manufacturers source solid stuff if you aren’t a fan of Samsung.

If you’re talking about readers I don’t think anyone does anything particularly well. Anker might be my preferred brand though. Lots of companies rip them off.

Dude probably didn’t want a Forbes headline at all. I don’t think his personality holds up well to basic scrutiny for the public at large. If my dad for instance asks me about him he’s already lost.

I’d love to see some sort of local star universe map that shows what everything is looking at!

It doesn’t “know” anything. It can’t solve that problem. It’s trained on humans so it’s limited to what we have written down.

I love ChatGPT but if it’s creative it’s because you asked it the right questions and found an oblique answer yourself.

I’ve noticed this as well. It unfortunately tends to sway the masses. If they can pick out one thing or can say an individual reason it’s better than something else it immediately has 100x credibility in my eyes.

“Wow great product and service! The seller shipped on time and delivered promptly”

VS

“I got this because it’s red and I like that more than the green option from OtherSeller. Still kinda ok but I got what I want.”

Especially on Amazon the first one is just insane. It has no identifying details and could relate to anything.

Yeah this is amazing! I’m surprised it’s not on some internetisbeautiful type page.

People are insane to not want tech like the Fediverse to grow. I guess people have their hang ups though.

I asked for help with a budget and it came up with $1000 extra out of thin air, cleverly spaced. I almost didn’t even notice!

I’d say I trust it with language and literary ventures. I’ve heard it can be solid for slapping down code…

But yeah the second day it came out I tried to get it to write spec sheets and it was always critically wrong somewhere. The gist was there but it couldn’t reference anything tangible.

It’s a “first draft” engine. It’s fantastic for that, but anyone making claims or looking for anything else out of it is just looking in the mirror.

Lemmy celebrate!
