    I make strides in mathematics all the time. Usually lateral, sometimes backwards, but strides nonetheless.

    Edit: maybe an ai can now say how many r’s are in the word strawberry

      It’s apparently able to disassemble words to run through its own parser now, but… Wow that twist ending. Trillions of dollars

        I was asking it about growing stuff and it told me to plant seeds for a plant that is sterile and has to be propagated by taking cuttings. So I decided to disregard all information it told me on caring for plants because fuck knows it just made it up. Who knows how much is accurate?

        Even worse is a lot of websites are AI generated now too.

            Sadly SEO seems to be one thing that the LLMs are moderately good at. That or they just churn out so much crap that it floods results with some being good enough to get to the top.

        I made Claude work around this by having it write a Python script to use instead that split the letters and provided a count. A script I could’ve written myself, for a task that’s completely pointless.
