Iv trained it so that when I tell it "do the thing" it pulls all the pictures off my phone and backs them up. It's fun, whimsical, and while I could do it a host of other ways. This is just more fun. Which is honestly kinda what I see as one of the better use cases for local models. Sure you could do the same thing with a script, or by hand. But it's not as /fun/ as having a little robot butler that slings one liners from various cartoons that you don't have to prepick as it enacts your will. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] glimse@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (2 children) ...so your good use case for AI is running a task apps have been able to do automatically for 20 years...?
