It’s really bizarre how anti-technology this technology sub is | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It's great when you don't need to be factual. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Simple. Cost trumps quality once cost collapses into a rounding error.
Most companies go through the motions with marketing, etc. because they have to. Once their untrained eyes can categorize it in the same way as the things they used to pay good money for, the reduced cost is offset by that "minor loss in quality". And hey, now they got a couple hundred to thousand bucks to spend elsewhere.
That's at least my experience/understanding as a translator. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It’s very easy to discern AI text from real text right now if you know what you’re looking for. If it’s writing something from nothing, it’s incredibly obvious. If you feed it something you’ve already written or bullet points or something, it becomes less and less obvious the more info it gets. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Runaway media consolidation, 24-hour news cycles, mobile internet, social media, and corporate greed destroyed journalism.
Buzzfeed was one paper cut of thousands that has made journalism weaker, not the cause. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
If used for the right tasks, ChatGPT can make very useful results. I work in a smallish office, about 60 employees. We were struggling and wasting tons of time keeping track of employee overtime jobs and billing the right customers.
I went from knowing very basic SQL to designing a Microsoft Access Database that us managers can use to keep everything nice and tidy in about a month. You can shit all you want on Access, but we've been using this database for 3 months and so far so good. Not perfect, theres a few known bugs but it has saved us so much damn time.
It did take some back and forth, and learning some stuff outside of GPT. I didnt just prompt it to "write me a database with x, y, and z requirements and call it a day.
We could have hired some developers to create something really fancy, but all this cost was about a month of my downtime, we even use our existing IT infrastructure. I feel like explaining the issue to a developer and explaining exactly what it is that we need would have taken longer and cost WAY more | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

The responses to your comment are peak redditors not understanding jokes | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I use it to help me figure out how to approach writing pieces of code quite often. It has been very helpful.
If you expect it to do everything for you, you’ll probably be disappointed. But if you use it as a tool to fill gaps or as a jumping off point for novel approaches it is great.
So like everything else, the effectiveness of a toolset is all about the way the user uses the toolset available to them. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Smaller freelancers are in the same position that factory workers where in when free trade with China opened and NAFTA hit.
Only this time the freelancers at least have access to the same tools to fight back. The factory workers could have their own factory. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Not sure who you’re responding to, but we never had online info integrity. It has always been about whichever echo chamber is the most referred to.
Because “online” and “print” have been gutted since the very early 1980s. There’s no profit in just reporting fact, and opinion journalism keeps escaping penalties because of bullshit like “reasonableness”. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
So just like before? Got it! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
You asking it to do your homework? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It has always been like this in technology. If you work in the field, you know that the tasks you complete on a day to day basis change over the course of your career as technology evolves. Even before AI, how I spent my time shifted significantly and made me more productive comparing the beginning of my career vs. a few years ago, before AI.
Things that I used to spend half my day doing 15 years ago are now mostly automated, even before AI came into play. Instead of being unemployed, I accomplish twice as much as I was once able to.
If you can adapt, you’re fine.
Working in this industry is fundamentally different than something like plumbing, where you’re gluing pipes together 20 years ago, today, and in 20 years, maybe with some incremental changes to the materials and processes you use.
I think I a lot of people who don’t work in tech or haven’t worked in tech for long enough don’t get this, resulting in comments like yours. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
> Sounds great until you realize you’ve handed over the means of all your creative production to corporation that will just charge you more when the freelancers are gone.
Right now, a subscription to ChatGPT is $20/mo for unlimited use. How much does a quick and dirty image cost on commission?
I use Midjourney and ChatGPT to generate NPC images for a D&D campaign I run, maybe half a dozen per week. They'd have to hike the subscription price to hundreds per month to "charge more" than I would have to pay to freelancers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
>The progress is based on losing the ability to do things for ourselves.
I actually completely disagree, these services are like the invention of internet/google, they EMPOWER people to do thing themselves.
>either too lazy to learn or too cheap to pay for the creative from other humans.
The same vein that happened to travel planners and so many other fields, being able to learn how to adapt and pivot is an important skill. creatives will always have a job, you need to learn how and where to market it as the world changes.
>I feel like this tech could be used to solve real world problems but instead is being use to replace a vulnerable industry that is the thing people enjoying doing if they didn’t have to work as much (creating art).
Its definitely already solving real world problems, i did my final semester with AI in helping my professor implement some of these, inventions like ITS(intelligent tutoring systems) help impoverished children around the world reduce the gap in learning capabilities that they got in life to tremendous effect. That is merely one single aspect of a massive industry. So it's 100% not just an "instead of" because this tech IS solving real problems already. you just dont see reddit harping about it, this is just the tip of the iceberg too, as i think creative work is probably one of the smallest fields AI has touched. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
And companies with in-house content are piling on work as if AI is reducing their effort to 10 or 50%. It's not...
I'm getting fucking burned out. My company has stopped giving a shit about quality and wants us to produce ridiculous amount of content at lightning speed - zero reasons considered.
And someone got fired for pushing back.
There are people who still pay high prices for quality work but you are battling it out with so many people.
AI only benefits the top people - the owners and management who just make more money out of more output. We're producing more than ever but there's no increase in salary, no promotions, no extra time... The 'benefits' of AI are going to stay with those in power. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
ironically this is why GPT 3 is so good, trained before all this crap flooded the internet | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
We've always used self-play and data augmentation to train models, and it almost always in almost all situations improved the feasibility of machine learning, back then (i.e. before 2012) and now (after 2012). Be it positional/transformational invariance so you can detect upside down dogs, be it generative approaches literally trying to discriminate self-injected bogus/generated data - we've tried a whole bunch and it all informs where we are right now.
There is very good evidence saying that, at worst, it will only slightly aid with training better models... but it really doesn't matter that much; retrieval of contemporary data doesn't really need to be hardcoded in a model's weights. We can do that in a separate layer and just let it handle that natural language interface and other abstractions, all we care about is better training approaches paired with longer training sessions. Better reasoning skills, which really lie on a gradient, are basically considered emerging properties at this point, and that's what we're really after.
Meaning: once we truly "run out" (which you don't, btw) of utilizable data, we won't need it anymore to begin with. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Any new programming language is doomed because where will the knowledge base come from for it to use it? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
AI is only as good as the human editing and fact checking what it spits out.
And unfortunately the braindead CEOs at most companies fired those humans and now they're freely spitting out disinformation and low quality computer generated nonsense. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It's a language model that follows logic well. When trained on syntax and rules it can generate useful code. It's sort of perfectly built for that kind of thing. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
They've been training GPT 5. It's not expected to be functionally that much of a leap than GPT 4 a lot of the focus is on performance of the model and API which imo is a good thing. They want leaps in efficiency and performance so it's cheaper/faster to run.
LLMs are reaching a "plateau" of what results training produces, a combination of compute diminishing returns and the state of transformers at present. However data sets and the quality of data have an overwhelming effect on the training results.
All of this can change quickly but if you see how the datasets are made at OpenAI it's not a web scrape of the Internet its trained on. These data sets are insane and the best in the realm of AI training. GPT is not trained on unfettered access to the Internet nor does it actually have any access unless it has literally seen the website address, or formatted citation in it's data set it is not going to return you something accurate.
People have distorted expectations in how they approach AI and utilize it for productivity. That's not really their fault at all. In fact it's a massive problem they are trying to solve, because this entire thread for the most part is a pretty good example of how the bad UX of AI, poorly communicates its functionality to users. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I have got a feeling this is going to cause some problems because chatGTP be trippin all the time. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Well, here's my story . . .
I have an MS in IT, and a graduate certificate in applied statistics. At one point I could program decently, and do a lot of stats. But since I retired about 10 years ago, most of that stuff has atrophied.
A couple of years ago I became a volunteer at an all-volunteer nonprofit. They were in a world of hurt on any number of levels: creating web pages, doing financial analysis, doing data analysis, developing lessons plans, and on and on.
I've been using ChatGPT for over a year now to do that and more:
* It creates damned near flawless HTML/CSS for our newsletters and web pages.
* It writes R scripts that clean and analyze horribly messy membership data from the god-awful platform we use. And it writes scripts for bar charts, pie charts, etc.
* It writes R scripts that clean and analyze financial data from CSV files I download from our bank, PayPal, and Stripe.
* It helps me with macros for doing spiffy things with Excel.
* It helps me create lessons plans when I'm going to teach a class in "iPhone for Seniors" or the like.
Most of that stuff I could do on my own if I were to take hours and hours to refresh my memory on how to write code for, say, getting rid of the first NN characters of a string, or centering a caption under a photo that on the right-hand side of a container.
Yeah, I could do all that, but ChatGPT is like having a small army of interns at my disposal who can do 95% of the heavy lifting.
Simply put, I love ChatGPT, and yeah, it is definitely going to put some people out of business. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

> And the crazy thing is, it doesn't even know if it did or didn't.
But isn't that how humans work, too? I will often start out by writing something that I think intuitively or half remembered is true. But I don't actually know with certainty whether it is true. But I will then go look up written sources to verify what I wrote, or do an actual calculation if applicable. Or even just read over what I just wrote.
I essentially have an inner LLM in my brain.
Much recent research in LLMs has been in making them do chain of thought, and other stuff to essentially mirror what I do in the fact checking stage. You get much better results from ChatGPT if you can do queries in a way that add verification layers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

>I don't think I can pick up a teaching, or nursing job next week.
Nursing no, but in a lot of places teaching yes.
All that is required most of the time is a bachelor's degree of some kind (and sometimes even that is waived). There are certification requirements but usually you are allowed to undertake those concurrently while you are working, though I think you do have a deadline of a year or so to complete them.
There is a reason it seems like everyone and their dog does some teaching right out of college before moving on to other things; it is a pretty easy field to enter. But, as you allude to, a hard field to stay in. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
im sure the the shift to minimalistic design everywhere has greatly influenced that. dumbing everything down enough so a computer can take said jobs from graphic designers so worried about removing every bit of "eye candy" | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Holy shit! You're an idiot! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Tech journalist here (Android Police, Digital Trends).
Sites that use AI content are content mills. They were using offshored writers before and paying peanuts, and will continue generating crap for SEO clicks.
But SEO is changing thanks to overviews. We’ve just seen both Google and Apple introduce overviews, meaning the entire SEO industry is in for a huge shakeup.
Sites that focus on human created quality content, like Android Police, the Verge, Digital Trends, etc. will survive.
I’m not worried about competing with AI because it simply cannot write well, and it certainly cannot perform all the tasks required of a journalist. What terrifies me are these AI-generated overviews. This has severe implications for the entire publishing industry and I think Nilay Patel said it best when he called it Google Zero. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Both. OpenAI shouldn't have published tech that was this far from successful, even if it made for a neat parlour trick in investor's meetings (the reason they did it). And the public should've understood that ChatGPT's great strength isn't data retrieval, but sounding human.
But even if the tech was mature, it would eventually mostly learn from its self-created data, which would lead to a bit of a feedback loop and... uh, "data inbreeding"?... which results in worse and worse results because AI does not generate unique and new stuff, it just rehashes old stuff.
Don't get me wrong, this mostly applies to "creative" AI use. Solvable problems can have great end products since the AI will just have a high hit rate eventually. Stuff like classification with a limited set of options can work very well.
But yeah, the devil here is still capitalism. While optimizing for the bottom line, quality has always been negotiable for the moneymen. They just want to see one number be higher than the other, and they've proven time and time again that they are willing and able to do this with the most shortsighted measures possible. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
You asked it for something creative, which it can't really provide. Gen AI is amazing for what is effectively "boilerplate" stuff and terrible at telling the truth. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
It really doesn't matter for 95% of what I am using it for.
I am the person who cut his cost for freelancers down to 1/10 of what I was paying in previous years.
Not only that, but I use it for things that I would have wasted my own time on before.
It is still massively easier and faster for me to go through 3 rounds of something with ChatGPT to get it right, than a freelancer. This is not always true, though. I sometimes ask it to do a large task and it just doesn't complete it and I have to spend time checking it.
But, its still saving me time and money. I just have due diligence to perform or I hire a freelancer to do that even. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Sounds like ChatGPT is copying CNN’s citation behavior | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I can write a program to count to 100 easily but an LLM is not programmed that same way and it doesn't process data the same way. It's taking all the stuff it trained on, building heuristics, then guessing at the next word based on the inputs. If one of those inputs was, specifically, current word count, then it might have a shot... That's why the previous example of a list helps: the numbered list becomes part of the input, so it can guess at the next number in the list and when to stop. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Same experience here as a data analyst. I also use ChatGPT a lot (mainly for syntax switching between SQL flavors) and sometimes it feels like I'd be better off asking my toddler to do it.
Even giving it a full fucking ERD isn't enough to get it to build queries reliably. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Because AI is generated from many sources, many copyright protected ones too. Its hard to prove you used AI though if you lie. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
i wish we would stop calling them "hallucinations." the AI arrived at that conclusion the exact same way it arrives at seemingly factual conclusions.
it's a bullshitting machine that just generates things that sound good. its truths are also "hallucinations" that just happen to be right. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
How nice of you to ask! In the 1950s, Germany made an answer specifically for that, which resulted in one of the most impressive economic resurgences in world history. It's called Social Market Economy, look it up! :) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
I agree that rarely are the exact social structures conceived of, and the consciously implemented. Even Lenin’s implementation of Marxism a la Gracchus Babeouf couldn’t achieve their intended aims.
But popular revolutions *do* tend to stem from very specific requested changes that are ignored by the ruling class until a tipping point. And those specific changes and ideas are often enshrined in the resulting governments after a successful revolution.
But the complex nature of the political/societal/economic systems of course result in the myriad gaps being filled with impromptu or unintended policies. Which is the part I believe you were highlighting.
I would still argue the importance of having specific visions for a better society and giving the existing powers the opportunity to adopt those ideas without the need of revolution. And then, if necessary, having those ideas be the core of your revolutionary ideology. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

Agreed. When I was In college, I used it for establishing a structure of how I should break down my paper, how long each paragraph should be, and around how many words I should dedicate to each page.

Not just not particularly useful, but there's been experiments done that the moment you start feeding an ai results it has generated it VERY quickly loses quality. This is the main reason I don't think AI will become much better than what we have now, at least not anytime soon.

It also can’t do calculus for shit. It will show you the way to do the problem semi correctly but it will fuck up the numbers everytime | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
Lol. You're funny.
GPT doesn't know how to write code because it understands coding. It knows how to code because it's seen a million examples and extrapolates the code from that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
>>And the crazy thing is, it doesn't even know if it did or didn't.

No.
For example if I write:
"The average American eats 365 burgers a year, that's one per day on average (Smith, 2013)".
I know whether or not I've looked that fact up or whether I've just made it up.
If you then ask me whether or not I made that up I say "Yes" knowing that's true.
An LLM has, for whatever reason predicted word by word that the next in the sequence is the most likely reply.
If you say to an LLM "I've looked for those links and they are no where, did you just make them up?" the most likely response is "yes I did sorry".
Basically generally if an LLM tells you if you say "That's wrong" it will agree with you unless the developer has taken steps to ensure it doesn't, which means it has limitations. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |

I’ve asked ChatGPT for citations (on technical content) but it says that it cannot provide them. Doesn’t matter the topic. How are you getting made up citations. A friend told me this too. What am I doing wrong? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-16-06 |
