But do they like it when people outside of Germany do it? I just asked a question and said "I'm not sure", and still got downvoted.

The same people who didn't understand that Google uses a SEO algorithm to promote sites regardless of the accuracy of their content, so they would trust the first page.

If people don't understand the tools they are using and don't double check the information from single sources, I think it's kinda on them. I have a dietician friend, and I usually get back to him after doing my "Google research" for my diets... so much misinformation, even without an AI overview. Search engines are just best effort sources of information. Anyone using Google for anything of actual importance is using the wrong tool, it isn't a scholar or research search engine.

I'm really confused...Are they downvoting me because Germany did not change nuclear with fossils? That's what everyone was saying in the news... I'm not European... Sorry if I'm not up to date with German politics.... It was literally a question. Lemmy is so toxic.

It really depends on the type of information that you are looking for. Anyone who understands how LLMs work, will understand when they'll get a good overview.

I usually see the results as quick summaries from an untrusted source. Even if they aren't exact, they can help me get perspective. Then I know what information to verify if something relevant was pointed out in the summary.

Today I searched something like "Are owls endangered?". I knew I was about to get a great overview because it's a simple question. After getting the summary, I just went into some pages and confirmed what the summary said. The summary helped me know what to look for even if I didn't trust it.

It has improved my search experience... But I do understand that people would prefer if it was 100% accurate because it is a search engine. If you refuse to tolerate innacurate results or you feel your search experience is worse, you can just disable it. Nobody is forcing you to keep it.

Come on, nobody is "all bad". I understand the hate towards this guy but don't turn this into an echo chamber in which we demonize people we dislike. Everything he says isn't a master plan, considering the amount of dumb shit he does and says in general... He probably had a problem with a Windows/OSX update and had the brilliant idea to post this because he thinks his ideas are brilliant and original. This guy is just a normal dude doing normal people things while sitting on a corporate throne. The quiet ones are the ones you should be concerned about.

It's an expression. In this context Elon is the broken clock and saying desktops should run Linux is one of the rare times he's been right about something.

Isn't Germany changing nuclear for fossils? That's the last I heard but I'm not up to date.

For large companies that serve many customers 5K per year is a drop in a bucket. If it provides their customers with a more secure experience, it is worth it.

Springboot is very confusing. The inheritance tree is insane, they created a class for everything, which I get.... But it is so hard to understand the whole scope their design.

You know you can disable the AI overview from Google, right?

I don't know who downvoted you but you're right. It's not possible to get there clean.

The whole article is blaming t"the cloud" as if it didn't serve services consumed by users. What do they want? To shut down the internet?

Energy transition is something these companies are working on.

Reaching these goals isn't easy.

Could someone explain how it's possible for him to be running for president?

Like, are there no laws against this? Is the only requirement for the person to have a pulse?

You haven't said a single fact. All you do is assume things and insult people who don't agree with you.

What fact?

Personal attacks and insults, what a disgusting person.

I don't care what you think, your attitude is disgusting.

You can have human-level conversations with a tool. I don't get your point. Just because it doesn't have full human intelligence doesn't mean it isn't good at conversation. It is better at conversation than most humans. It is obviously not smarter than a human, but it is more eloquent and has more general knowledge than the average human.

We are the first humans who can have a human level conversation with something that is not a human. What do you think human conversations look like? They are not very deep in general.

Pretty funny you think you convinced me it is a tool when I just showed you like 8 different ways I use it as a tool.

I literally started this thing saying that even if it isn't perfect, it is pretty good and it a crazy achievement. You just keep saying it is worthless shit, but that's not true. Just because the tool isn't perfect it doesn't mean that it is worthless or it isn't an achievement.

But whatever man... You just want to be right, so take your imaginary trophy and walk away.

You just inflated my initial statement by assuming I meant that Chatgpt is smarter than humans. I said that Chatgpt is more advanced than the average human at linguistics, and I stand by it. Show me where I said "Chatgpt is smarter than a human" or "this is real simulated human intelligence". You just wanted to be angry at someone so you made your narrative in your mind.

I even said that it doesn't need to be real intelligence in order to be capable of having a conversation.

You'll probably keep creating your imaginary narrative, so there's no point in arguing with you.

Good bye.

I can smell them like at a 1m distance. They smell bad. The first time I realized what they smell like, I took a bite of a muffin that I left on the counter. I tasted the muffin and another bad flavor so I looked and it had ants. From that moment I could smell them, not because I couldn't smell them before but because now I knew what they smelled like.
