AI can reduce the time spent finding information. Deciding what to trust remains a human responsibility.

😁

Love this 😂

The thing isn't that AI gets things wrong occasionally, it's that it can sound equally convincing when it's right or wrong.

Brendan Jephcott true

absolutely what I face each time i found a mistake. AI would admit the mistake profusely and not care about the consequence of the previous advice.

User error. AI just didn't say, you must not be the slowest person running from the bear.

Pablo COSTA, C. M. I agree with his view, the richest 1% of the world have more money than the 99% so yes they are after power and more control of what AI does and its not to bring major solutions to life but to grow their businesses, its easy being an anti-capitalist but what solution does he have then to stop the power of the richest having their hands on AI strategy? zero, he is a politician and is himself benefiting from the power AI beings most probably from AI advertising and yes he is using it for more power himself.

AI has mastered one very human trait: refusing to admit it doesn't know. 😄 The best results still come when confidence is paired with verification. "Trust, but verify" remains a surprisingly effective AI strategy.

This is why "I'm not sure" is an underrated AI feature. A model that admits the gap beats one that papers over it smoothly.

Which is why it should only be a tool, and not a sole source of reliance. AI, when used incorrectly, will cause mayhem….and already has to be fair, let alone weaken cognitive ability and capacity. I use AI, yes… I would be a fool not to. It’s a fabulous tool, but being aware of the limitations is a must.

I find that answering "are you sure? Feel free to say yes but only if you can ground your reasoning in facts" tends to yield a better final answer

The confidence is impressive until you already know the answer. Then it becomes a reminder to double check important details.

I also continue to use SO but have noticed that the questions get more complex and interesting as most basic questions are now caught by AI assistants, which makes moderating much easier. One thing SO taught me was to generate a minimal working example and describe the exact problem in a concise manner (in order not to draw the wrath of seasoned users) which often was enough to solve the problem without posting the actual question. That's something you don't learn by using a chatbot. Just as kids don't learn to estimate the result to a calculation before entering it to a calculator, anymore, programmers will someday lose their rubber ducks. I don't know whether this is good or bad but it's a loss.

Big vision, big claims—and it really highlights how fast “multimodal + agentic AI” is becoming the center of the industry. The interesting part now isn’t just capability, but how safely and practically it gets deployed.

Prompting is very important in AI. If he had asked "what is the best course of action when a bear is behind you" results would have been different!

Asked before searched became trend since 2022

It always tries to explain why it’s right.

I have to say: AI makes me often feel "very smart". Especially when it acknowledges an error in its own 'reasoning' and I point it out to it. 🤣On the other hand: these 'answers' keep making me stay awake and remind me to never ever trust the AI answer without checking it yourself. Does it sound logic? Is it logic?
