I grew up thinking I was horrible at math… till it became abtract enough that calculations were rare…

Turns out my handwriting is shit, and I cant manually calculate for my life. But if those two things are not a factor, I am really got at math.

Also. I had a “computational methods” class in uni, where we had to do algorithms with a calculator… almost failed. Then went out off of that field and became a programmer. Im fairly sure if that class was actually computer base I’d gotten a perfect score.

That sounds quite possible, AI features on phones/OSs go mostly unused –according to my study, which has a sample of size who the hell knows and a methodology of I feel–.

But llms I think, although burning money, are quite accepted by the people who touch them, and do not understand what is actually going on or don’t care if the thing is wrong often.

I sometimes use llms, but only to burn thru monkey work that I can fast and easily review and do if the result is too shity. But that is the extention of my ai use.

What are your resons to boycott ecosia?

Does AI comes up negative for most users? Surely here in Lemmy, yes. But out there I see/hear people using it -for dumb shit, mind you- all the time and being happy about it.
