ever wonder why AI is so “good”? please identify all images which are ____. the captcha system may not know what the image is, but after thousands of responses, it has a pretty good idea of where it is, and what it is (since most users will answer correctly to prove they are human).

There are some sites so extremely annoying that I just get a mirror from archive.org or archive.is. I'm doing this with some news sites that will only allow me to browse them if I accept their cookies.

I just hate the ones that block you for using Linux. User agent spoofers work but they'll figure out how to block those too someday.

All I see is a cross in the upper right corner.

I know the hate for it abounds, but this is why I'll often just try to look stuff up in a chat box with an AI, browsing has become exhausting.

Honestly what AI outputs is what I think a majority of the people want anyways. They want an answer to something in most cases.

I do the same damn thing. When I want information distilled to me in a manner which is quick and easy to process, I use something like an LLM to reduce the complexity down.

I also use https://www.summarize.tech/ a LOT for YouTube videos to get to the part that matters, or just simply make it text-searchable.

When I ask a question I want a correct answer, not one that is merely statistically likely. Using an AI and not fact checking it means you will never know if the answer given to your question is true. The AI tells you what it thinks you want to hear, not what it knows is true, because it doesn't know anything, it's a pattern matcher.

But it's like asking your very smart child to find the information for you.

The child is still learning so it only takes information that it was exposed to and has access to and it never questions or critically analyses the data.

So all the information, disinformation, misinformation and non information that the childlike AI collects is fed back to you as a giant word salad and presented as actual information without any critical thought.

They're getting harder, no doubt about that

It's the cookie toggles pop up that annoys tf out of me. There's no reason for every site to need to ask you over and over and over about it. The browser should be taking care of that.

the ones that put you on there mainpage if you don't accept cookies or use addblocker are the worst.
