it is but has a step where an AI model that could run on a laptop decides if search results and their links are relevant. so it works better because it can explore link trees.

our internal wiki has thousands of disorganized pages and no real search engine so I used thinking and nuance to build an ai researcher that explores it in depth to get detailed answers.

just an example of how it can be useful. ai still makes bad code for the most part tho

they don't need to hide it anymore, they own all the computer system and capital

sorry don't mean to be rude 😔

but for some reason my feed is all furry art and I don't get why lol

you keep doing you!
November 26, 2025 at 6:58 PM
the actual utility is unglamorous

searching millions of scientific papers to get answers with citations on any question

writing code to analyze data and extract patterns etc

like op said the real value is an increase in information processing.

the hype is mostly insider trading, lies, grift

how do I see less of this

I gotchu

genai is a computer system, it runs on computers, it talks to computers, it writes a large portion of new code that computers run these days. which worries me because the code ain't great
November 26, 2025 at 6:42 PM
okay i mean to ask this respectfully - how do you know what computer systems can / can't do if you think anyone who works with them has a fundamental conflict of interest
November 26, 2025 at 6:11 PM
yeah agree, the hype is a bubble of insider trading for capital to gamble on a way out of declining profits.

I have alternatives but I like the novelty and job security.

it's true AI is being used by evil people to ensloppen all media and that capitalists would throw all laborers in a meat grinder if they could turn a profit

but that doesn't mean AI has zero real world utility in practice
November 26, 2025 at 5:58 PM
I don't "profit" from going to work 40 hours, I trade my labor for money so I didn't go homeless like any worker.
November 26, 2025 at 5:49 PM
because I build in house AI tools for data scientists and software engineers for a living, been doing machine learning work for over a decade.
November 26, 2025 at 5:45 PM
you're absolutely right
November 26, 2025 at 5:43 PM
how would you know if that was true or not?
November 26, 2025 at 5:42 PM
I agree although this lacks systemic critique. It's not the individuals brokering the greed but that the greed is the mantle upon which our economy and political structures rest.

It's a self-licking ice cream cone keeping a hobbled imperial economy alive. Tendency of the rate of profit to fall

Feels like the logical conclusion for these dorks is to let their pokemon chatbots duel it out in the comments while they take credit for reams of specious reasoning no one reads
November 26, 2025 at 7:04 AM
True they can't do math, but they can write, test, execute code that does math for an arbitrary use case. Not saying the hype is justified or the way AI is used isn't destructive but that criticism is missing why.

un American? buddy have you read anything about the cold war
