AI help over text isn't that bad...or it's not as bad as the shitty images and videos that people are pumping out. I'm not above asking it for help with something linux-y 'cause I'm a noob and people on forums tend to be a little mean sometimes. :P But I actually attempt to memorize and learn what it's telling me and also I check its sources.

    Same here. The AI answer doesn't fix or solve anything for me, but it does give me enough pointers for me to refine my search or find old posts that leads to the right information.

    It's too bad that the big AI services are world destroying

    Edit: also most of my noob Linux questions I just don't know how to ask. Google search being the shit fest it is now, duckduckgo I feel like doesn't work as well as google when they're quietly enshittifying (I thought google search peaked at 2010s for how good it is finding me things with all the "google-fu" I learned that's for nought now). And quote frankly, I am "afraid" to ask in Linux forum sites (including here). I don't want to gamble getting some asshole Linux guy mouthing me off.
