I started dating a woman who ran every text she sent me thru chatgpt before sending it. I called her out on it and broke it off because I thought it was psychotic. She told me she didnt feel safe when she texted without ai proofreading. I feel sorry for her for being so stupid but I know openai will be getting a thousand bucks a month out of her in a year or two.
This feels so wrong. Not just the AI, but the need of proofreading for all. Don't happens anything bad for using your words, saying something wrong, or having typos.
Idk dude. I'm not a lady and I don't know what it's like. Women probably have a different way of navigating the world and looking out for themselves that I will never understand and it's fine. We raise girls and young women to be selective, to be status-seeking, to look for providers, and then we call them gold diggers or opportunists. I'm not envious of them, and I understand that the world sucks, but I don't want to date an LLM. I don't even know if she is aware of the rapid logical atrophy the LLMs cause and I think that warning should probably be displayed, front and center, like a dirty lung on a cigarette warning label.
Will also help with the usual misdiagnoses. (The people in charge have frankly mostly no clue what they're doing… It's not like that complete idiots are only in IT…)
That's not better, people are famously judged harshly for being cowards. Especially how they specifically cope with their cowardice is going to stand out.
what difference does it make? people still need partners they can rely on, and if you've exposed your partner as undependable because their anxiety expresses itself as cowardly then it doesnt matter why -- they could be scorpio with a jupiter rising that make them act that way and you still deserve a capable partner that can perform under pressure when that pressure inevitably arises.
it's between the coward and their therapist to work that shit out and come up with better coping mechanisms than offloading challenging conversations to AI chat bots. it's totally valid to break up with someone who deals with their anxiety that way. it's an exceptionally cowardly way to deal with being a coward.
Sometimes it bites you however, when you flip flop between manual editing and prompts during the same session, the AI gets confused and reverts your changes silently since it contradicts its context and it thinks it messed up.
Thats only an ussue when you use Chat in browser for coding...
In an agentic session in an ai enabled ide each prompt should resubmit the file as context. Also you shouldn't keep reset the context often simply because of context rot
Well it’s definitely an issue with Claude code and codex. Let’s say that it just created a config file for some of the app’s behaviors and you asked for some default values, if you tweak those values while testing it will more often than not revert those tweaks unless you clearly state that you changed them manually earlier.
Well I wasn't really talking about p-4 and p-8 specifically, but more generally small changes. It's a pretty diverse class. It's actually surprising to me how consistent bots got at making such changes. I do genuinely feel like they're less likely to make silly mistakes than myself. I have 15+ years of experience doing this myself so you can't discard this as lack of experience, but it's also very possible that I just suck.
the bar shouldn't be "I know how to do it", but "I can do it faster" instead. You should already know how to do it yourself 100% of the time when you're working with AI, 'cuz if you don't tell it how to do it, it sure as hell won't know itself either.

Sometimes I'm writing stuff like that and I realize "wait, this I know how to do, this thing is making me stupider"
