God I hope it just fucking collapses and pulls every other tech company down with them. I’m so fucking sick and tired of coworkers thinking ChatGPT is the most perfect thing that has ever been made. Every single fucking time I’m searching for something I’m asked “Why don’t you just ask ChatGPT”. They will not shut the fuck up, even when I show them ChatGPT is completely full of shit. Want it to write a simple 40 line script for Excel? Sure, just spend 30 minutes telling it, its code doesn’t fucking work, because it’s trying to use functions that don’t excist. “You’re totally right, and so clever for pointing that out! Here’s an updated script that takes that into account”, still doesn’t fucking work.
“But but but didn’t prompt it right bro”
Can sometimes help to edit your previous message with additional instructions and regenerating rather than responding to ask for a correction. Also copy pasting documentation and code examples with syntax that is real into the prompt. Might also try something other than ChatGPT since OpenAI sucks in general.
You’re right of course but they’re not arguing in good faith. Wrong excel formulas in 2026? This person is either full of it, or they’re trying to prompt gpt-3.5 in ancient Aramaic.
I’ve explained to to some people as “when I speak a language fluently, I’m not going to use Google translate to communicate”. Vibe coding is amazing for people who aren’t fluent, where they can translate between English and python (or whatever language of choice is).
I know exactly what I want to say, and English isn’t a more convenient language for me to express it in
And the cool part is that the USA stock market gains for the last couple years are based on OpenAI (and others) promising to buy stuff sometime in the future to build their data centres, which in turn spins into reinvestment in the company and a giant circlejerk.
Run out faster
grim picture
the picture:
Wish it were sooner
Why can’t they just ask ChatGPT how to make more money?
Ask chatgpt how to make them LOSE more money.
My conspiracy theory: The plan is to fail and sell the data centers to Microsoft for pennies on the dollar.
I think Apple is much more desperate for that gamble than Microsoft.
Microsoft has their own problems. Copilot only has a 4% adoption rate and Microsoft has increased the price of M365 to offset costs. They’re probably trying to figure out how to repurpose what they have, let alone take on more.
Too long, these assholes are fucking up everything from the economy to medicine at great individual and societal cost.
Id say i cant wait, but theyll probably get bailed out and everything will become more expensive as the economy crashes. So thats cool
I think all AI companies are just trying to exist at as low prices as possible for as long as possible so that enough companies have time to implement AI into their company infrastructure.
Once the dependence on AI for work flows is locked in they raise the prices.
It will be a interesting time of a big AI bubble burst… And sadly also bad for many individuals losing their jobs in the companies that can’t revert in time.
Dumb CEOs will then again just get more money in the form of hidden compensation packages while the average Joe will have to do… Something.
Well, if AI drops down out of dumb hype into a normal spectrum it’s probably worth it.
Burn baby burn
May it happen even sooner.
God I hope it all collapses before the end of trumps term.
Sam Altman needs to be thrown in prison for fraud like Sam Bankman-Fried.
I’m smart enough to know that when the bubble bursts it’s going to mess with the world economy, apparently way worse than the 2008 recession, but I’m too stupid to understand why. I just hear people say things and it would be nice to see these assholes get wrecked for once and not just rake in some cash and dip in time while the rest of the world is left to pay the clean up bill for a party they were never invited to.
I mean, I watched the big short and the only thing I understood from that movie was that the bad guys won and everybody else lost. So I am sorta preparing for the worst here xD
