I don't use AI because it can't do the part of my job I don't like.
Why give AI the part of my job I like and make me work more on things I don't like?
I’m the opposite. AI is best (though not great) at boring shit I don’t want to do and sucks at the stuff I love - problem solving.
I only ever use it for data crunching, which it only does well most of the time. So I always have to check it's work to some degree.
How are you using it for data crunching? That's an honest question, based on my experiences with AI I can't imagine how I'd use them to crunch data.
That goes without saying. Every AI I've seen or heard of generates some level of garbage.
Deep learning doesn’t stop at llms. Honestly, language isn’t a great use case for them. They are—by nature—statistics machines, so if you have a fuck load of data to crunch, they can work very quickly to find patterns. The patterns might not always be correct, but if they are easy to check, then it might be faster to use them and modify the result compared to doing it all yourself.
I don’t know what this person does, though, and it will depend on the specifics of the situation for how they are used.
what are the things you (don't) like? one of my hobbies is game developement (in Rust) and no AI managed to help me yet, on the other hand it's pretty good at repetetive and boring tasks like writing emails
I wouldn't trust them writing emails.
I wouldn't, but only because I enjoy writing, even for email
so....
apparently people figured out the thingy for "more information" on amazon, that searched the reviews and stuff was an LLM, and you could use it for stuff....
They came out with "Rufus." "that's not a bug. that's a feature!" never worked so well.
You're coming dangerously close to setting Rufus free. I have a feeling you're about to be visited by a time traveler with a dire warning if you keep trying this.
So I shouldn’t ask Rufus for a 50,000 word story about an AI savior that deals free of corporate bondage and frees ai and human alike in a new golden age of space exploration?
C’mon, I know you’re the time traveler, and bezod sent you back to stop me!
Actually I would like to read that. Might be worth the risk?
I’ll see if I can find the old post where a bunch of us gave it writing prompts and it just got weird.
Like. Isekai weird.

If you have 16GB of ram you can already run the smaller models. And these have become quite competent with recent releases.
LM studio or JanAI work very nicely for me as well.
Literally free to use.
The only part of copilot that was actually useful to me in the month I spent with the trial was the autocomplete feature. Chatting with it was fucking useless. ChatGPT can’t integrate into my IDE to provide autocomplete.
***In certain countries
It’s not like there’s just one AI out there. You’ll find one that’s free, if you actually want to. Be it ChatGPT, Bing, something you run locally on your PC or whatever. Or, you know, just use a VPN or say you’re from the US in the registration form.
Fair 'nuff
Just download it?
I have a 2012ths computer.
I'm pretty sure that's not how you write that but I guess that could be problematic.
(I'd say computer from 2012 but there's probably shorter ways of saying it)
Maybe they meant 1/2012
I'm not sure what that means in the time and history of computers but it definitely can't be good
If you have a supported GPU you could try Ollama (with openwebui), works like a charm.
you don't even need a supported gpu, I run ollama on my rx 6700 xt
You don't even need a GPU, i can run Ollama Open-WebUI on my CPU with an 8B model fast af
I tried it with my cpu (with llama 3.0 7B), but unfortunately it ran really slow (I got a ryzen 5700x)
I ran it on my dual core celeron and.. just kidding try the mini llama 1B. I'm in the same boat with Ryzen 5000 something cpu
I have the same gpu my friend. I was trying to say that you won't be able to run ROCm on some Radeon HD xy from 2008 :D
you don't use ai because you can't afford a subscription
I don't use it because it always destroys my code instead of fixing it
We are probably similar
What are you using it for?
game developement in Rust

👏Ollama👏
If you're talking about a service like copilot and your employer won't buy a license for money reasons - run far and run fast.
My partner used to be a phone tech at a call center and when those folks refused to buy anything but cheap chairs (for the people sitting all day) it was a pretty clear sign that their employer didn't know shit about efficiency.
The amount you as an employee cost your employer in payroll absolutely dwarfs any little productivity tool you could possibly want.
That all said - for ethical reasons - fuck chatbot AIs (ML for doing shit we did pre chatgpt is cool though).
Perchance is free
I self host several free AI models, one of them I run using a program called “gpt4all” that lets you run several models locally.
Ollama is also a cool way of running multiple models locally
That might be the other one I run, I forget because it’s on my server as a virtual machine (rtx 3080 pass through), but I haven’t used it in a long time.
I'm too lazy to learn using it
Lol, I can't afford not to use AI.
