maybe, but i see quite a few similar reactions in this thread that make me wanna leave this place. its just slowly starting to sink in for me that lemmy is a lefty echo chamber and its basically the same 20 posts rehashed every week by people with worldviews like this. how tf can anyone expect to change anything without hope. Idk man, im just dumping my thoughts but i think im gonna get the hell off this platform and anything similar because it's not having a positive effect on me.

Maybe he means in a context with your real name visible?

Hmm, well i can't really speak to any of that. But for the greater good, unions are a good thing. I understand that it makes difficult for you though.

I'd throw the obvious stuff at you like, but it's kinda hard to get an idea of what could possibly help without knowing you.

I do know that i've had to change my attitude a few times in life to get by though, i don't think autism should be used as an excuse to not have to do the hard thing everyone has to do (but is harder for us).

Right now, the only advice i can give is to try to channel that resentment into motivation to improve yourself. Trying and failing is so much more valuable than just giving up and being angry about it.

But yeah, i do have it easier than most so maybe it's not my place to say things like that. I do wish you the best though.

I do feel the same way about things being easier alone though. i would be much happier and productive doing my own thing, I have a ton of software projects i work on, somd even make a bit of money, but running business seems scary since my administration skills are shit and customers are acary.

Interesting, im vaguely interested in this too. i have half of a world written that i want to turn into a game maybe (probably not but, amhaving fun) I have the hardware to turn what i have into an embedding for an open model, and the hardware to run it. So that's the way i would go about it, though i can't advocate for how helpful it would be (yet)

ChatGPT is overly safe in terms of personality and the worldview it presents when asked. it's a great tool to learn, more so than a teacher because you can freely ask it very specific questions in your own words and it will give an understandable answer. I think it's actually a perfect tool for someone that age. Once the topics get too advanced, the results become less reliable though.

It doesnt make things up anymore as much as it used to. It still does sometimes with topics that are less commonly discussed in the dataset it's trained on (this is similar with websearch). It will however confidently claim that it's answer is correct sometimes. As long as you understand that it's not always correct and have the sense to verify things that seem off, you'll be fine.

You'll get the best results from the paid GPT4 subscription (20 dollars a month), which i would recommend.

The only real risk i see is overreliance on it. I notice this in myself too, it's almost like i forgot googling things is an option, so when i'm stuck rather than trying another approaxh, i just keep throwing prompts at GPT-4 until i give up and find the solution elsewhere, often within minutes. The way things are going, classic web search is becoming obsolete (unreliable result because of AI written content and fake news) while AI actively tries to be unbiased.

tldr: Yes, it's extremely useful, make sure they don't forget how to do things without chatgpt too.

Have you tried working for a small-mid size company? I got the same vibe in big companies, now im in a company of 50 people and they just do not care how weird i am, no middle managers trying to justify their existence, as long as you're doing your best you're good. Like i'm sure that doesnt apply to all small companies, but i'd certainly keep it in mind for the future

I would look into NovelAI for writing, it's quite specifically for that. It's a paid servicd similar to chatgpt, but it's uncensored and private.

You can run your own lightweight LLM on a laptop but the output will be useless. Good output requires big boy compute.

If you do want to run it on your own hardware, look into Ollama. There's also options to run your own LLM in the cloud with a not too difficult process for non-techies.

Frankly, id find the right LLM for your needs and just pay for it per month, maybe novelai, maybe something else, but chatgpt is not great for creative fiction.

Yeah I made this account first before hopping to one more suited for me. Didnt turn out well there but generall if you're pretty new i imagine most people arent too attached to their instance

Good way to punish websites that have zero security i suppose

Yeah that's valid. It's not your responsability to deal with their warped worldview.

I hope so, let's get some semi-healthy competition going, maybe they'll even have to provide a better user experience instead of just seeing who can milk their users the most optimally. Probably not but one can dream.

Are you an AI chatbot?
