I think this is just social media content right? Just don't consume it?

Personally I find AI great and where I can , everything is AI enhanced

- Coding / Software dev (obvious one)

- Health ... been super useful as I recently had a thyroidectomy, it's given me a lot of information the drs didn't and also spotted a mistake my dr made in post surgery symptoms. I maintain my own set of .md files documenting all medical things now.

- Shopping. Super useful though still has a way to go, but relative to google I tend to use the AI results more often.

- Random problems... Insanely useful!

- Fact Checking, pretty good for the most. But you have to fact check your fact checking.

- Market Research, surprisingly good

- Philosophy, really good and useful

So basically anything.



> - Philosophy, really good and useful

I have had the opposite experience, philosophy questions tending to show the various chatbots at their most irrational and confabulatory.


I’m curious, could you demonstrate the difference between “Insanely useful!” and “really good and useful”?


not really, it is my subjective view on how "enabling" it is based on previous experience of not having AI.


I guess words have lost meaning at this point.
