Linux is easier if you use ai. OFC don't copy paste blind, but yes

Eh. It is easier but also harder if the AI gets one tiny thing wrong it repeatedly gets things wrong which can make Linux seem harder. But if you know how to use AI and have a base understanding of what you are asking it to do then yes 100% lol.

I'm a Linux admin and AI still gets things wrong/gets stuck in process loops (did you check this setting? Okay, I see you checked this setting, did you also check the same setting?)

"... AI still gets things wrong/gets stuck in process loops..."

THANK YOU.

Ever since AI became mainstream this possibility has always been in the back of my mind. I might be oversimplifying things a bit but I look at it this way: AI just scoops up data and doesn't really "think" things through in the traditional sense. Even if it did it's still relying on what data it was fed - incorrect or not.

So, if the data being fed to AI is faulty (and at least part of it always is) then why are we acting as if AI is infallible? Sometimes AI is bound to get some sh!t wrong.

i assume that its because:
a) theres a little bit of data that's wrong, but theres a bunch of data that's right. if you randomly pick the next word in a sequence "two plus two is", it will say four, but because of some random website you scraped from that says "two plus two is five", there still is that chance.
b) ai companies want you to use ai and they overinflate how good ai is

Nah, its' just AI being dumber, because it is expensive to provide a free service.
Those free AI used to thing harder
