If AI was as great as they pretend, there would be no need to force it on us.




It's the classic "You don't need to tell a child that something is fun. The more times you a child something is fun, the more they will doubt you. It's easy to tell if something is fun, because it's fun."

Its the only game in town, and reasonably expected to be close to the last.

What do you mean by that?

A few days ago i took a photo of some water pipes, and asked chatgpt to review it .

Unbeknownst to me that there was an issue. It pointed out multiple signs of slow leaks and then described what i should do to test and repair it easily.

I see a lot of negative energy about the 'AI' tech we have today to the point where you will get mass downvoted for saying something positive.


If you did a writeup of this case, you could change some minds.

A knowledgeable friend or family member could have helped with that too. AI is helpful, it is just not trillion dollars helpful.

Did you follow through with the full repair? How long did it take? What was the materials cost?
