AI talk: how far are you guys into it?

[Versuvio]

Lately AI is everywhere, from people messing around with image generators to entire companies rebuilding their workflows around it. I was wondering how it looks for everyone here on AB. Are you already using AI tools in your daily life or work? If so, what’s the actual value you’ve gotten out of it?

For context: I work as an AI Architect for large tech companies, helping them how to actually apply AI instead of just hyping it up. That means a lot of building with agents, training models on company-specific data, and designing setups that don’t just sound cool but really deliver.

Curious to hear what you all are doing. Are you experimenting with prompts, coding with AI, maybe automating parts of your work, or still just watching from the sidelines?

In my personal life, I enjoy viewing ai women art.

I find it beautiful.

I thought you were gonna say Ai porn there for a second (not judging we're all open here lmao), but yeah, Ai has a lot of meaningful ways to amplify life now, but, it also could be scary.

Lots we don't know yet, both good and bad. It's definitely going to be interesting to see what the future holds for it for sure. I hear school kids talk about it everyday on the bus to work, how it's implemented as tools to make tasks easier both with communication, paper work and tests, and things I have no idea of lol . On the flip side, it also makes it easier to maybe cheat so yeah, lots to be said about AI. I don't use it personally, but I know enough about it to not fall off the conversation as a boomer lol

Lakooki sana should show his Neji vs Saskey chapter that pipole will probably accuse of IA when teh reality of lakooki fingers bleeding get ignored....

I work as a back-end developer and I use chatGPT as a form of "first line support" when it comes to compilation errors before going back to the old ways of "google". Sometimes I use it as a "peer reviewer" for some blocks of code.

Outside of work I use it for all kinds of non-programming related stuff. Like, if I am actually curious about some "terms and conditions" then I'll copy/paste the entire thing then tell GPT my "role", some context about what I am trying to achieve and ask it to summarize the terms and conditions for me while pointing out if there's something I should be concerned about given my "role"/goals.

If you want to proof-read a text or optimize some linguistical things then it's pretty handy for that.

I tried using chatGPT to generate images, but the art is rather meh. Or rather, my prompt is meh because I lack the exact and proper artistic terminologies to describe what I would like it to generate. Though if you're good a collage/putting stuff together, then you could ask it to generate pieces of what you're trying to make and then do the rest on your own.

I like AI only for its ability to compile and combine search results from different resources and make it into one solid answer when a question is asked. The index for AI as far as Google searching goes is super advanced and that is very convenient. That is the only way I use AI. Never used it for anything else before. Don't know how to use it myself for personal needs. Don't want to use it. Unless you count Siri and Gemini. And I don't count that because that was only classed and used as AI recently even though it was always a form of AI it was a little bit different back then. So much so I wouldn't have even necessarily classified it as such. I think AI and robotics or not only hindering the job market for the global populous, it is making people lazy, it is being used for malicious and deceptive practices and I don't believe humans are capable of using and can be entrusted with such advanced technology. No offense to you as I am glad you got a good job in that field, respectively. But got the overall good and future of humanity, I don't see AI being the sole launch of technological evolution. I attribute that to technology like Tesla cars which yes, I know they use AI technology as well but not in the same abusive way as free market, open AI. I believe in more fuel efficient vehicles and more space capable vehicles will be the peak of human technological evolution. I cannot agree with more advanced AI being in our hands and I hope I die before it dominates the market completely, honestly. And I am scared for my kids in the world of online information and AI takeover. I truly am. I don't like it. Convenience shouldn't come at the price of everything else negative about AI. Humanity has exceeded far beyond what AI has contributed and ever will contribute. And I don't like it...

I get what you’re saying, here’s how I see it: AI (at least the kind we’re talking about here, like ChatGPT) is really just a text generator. Nothing more, nothing less. It doesn’t “think”, it doesn’t have intentions, it’s not plotting world domination. It's not Hollywood. I have a feeling you’re seeing it as a black box. What it actually does is predict the next most likely word based on a massive amount of training data and the context you feed it. That’s why prompts matter so much, you give the context so it can sort of predict the right answer. Without context it just spits out nonsense. It can't think at all.

In that sense it’s not very different from a calculator. A calculator looks super smart because it can give you instant results on math you would struggle with, but nobody thinks it’s conscious. A language model is just the same thing for text.

So for me the real risk isn’t the model itself, but how people and companies decide to use it. That’s where it can go wrong (replacing jobs, manipulation, scams). But the tool itself? It’s just patterns and statistics dressed up as words.

Curious though, does that change the way you look at it, or do you still see it as dangerous even in that stripped-down form?

Personally, as a teacher, I love it.

I have an account with teachmateAI. If I wanted to plan an English lesson based around a model text, it would take me several hours to do so. It takes me 2 minutes to put the parameters in. 60 seconds to generated.

My work life balance has become so much more balanced. It generates worksheets, word banks, planning, reports. The only thing I find it struggles with or a limit is adding picture stuff to it. I can generate an entire powerpoint about religious artifacts, yet it wouldn't add the images in.

Messing around with Gemini AI as well, I find that if you use words like "copy" or "edit" this image, it says it can't do it. Yet, using words like "generate" to make something similar to the image, it works.

We don’t know if the a.i bubble will pop like the dot com bubble.

I use Chatgpt to help me spruce up emails and do menial stuff like removing duplicates from an excel file #Lazy

Ask AI how to prepare for that

I wonder if advanced AI or agents is something people want to learn here. #university

I assume you're referring to LLMs and the tools/technologies that stem from them. I'm loving it so far.
First of all, there's a bit too much hype around AI; it's not as great as the twitter/X bros make it out to be, but it's something that can boost productivity in almost any field, so yeah, I use it a lot.
One of the ways I use it while writing code is bouncing off ideas, and basically using AI as a very knowledgeable Junior developer that I can just interact with and refine my ideas and thoughts. The code it generates is hit or miss so I won't recommend vibe coding, for example, but with agents, you can really achieve a lot.

One of the most important features was structured responses, which was mind-blowing when I first got OpenAI's API to return an array of objects consistently. I've used it for a lot of stuff ever since.
These days, I spend most of my time on a side project I'm hoping to launch soon, which makes use of gamification elements and Agents to personalize a user's learning experience (I'm trying to make learning new things fun in essence) so you can have like AI mentors, AI AI-generated performance report on your performance to help you improve, showing your strengths and weaknesses, all while constantly anaylzing the user's knowledge level and adjusting accordingly, so that an expert and a novice can interact with the same course/concept, and the interaction would be much different.

I personally don't think AI in its current state would take any important jobs, at least not yet, but it's more likely that someone who uses AI tools would take your job, because, depending on the industry, someone with access to well-crafted agents can really boost their productivity.

That being said, given how humans can be, there are potentially so many dangerous things that can be done with AI. If I want, I can totally impersonate someone, including their likeness, voice, and speech patterns, amongst other things, and it has made me much more paranoid. It's also a very new technology, and we'll probably discover more vulnerabilities in the future. Then there's the issue of the data it's trained on; if it's bad data, then that's quite dangerous. The most hilarious issue, though, is LLMs' ability to confidently lie/provide totally false information in such a convincing manner. In the end, it's just a really advanced autocomplete.
We can use RAG to limit hallucinations, but that comes with its own issues.

You sound really convincing ,almost like ai trying to convince everyone that they are not going to take their jobs.
