Its good for my job… “I want to calculate the volume of a vessel and figure out what the maximum pressure might be”… Then AI will give me the correct formula for the volume and maximum pressure. If you ask AI for it to calculate those things the answer probably will be wrong, why? Because the formulas are in the text books they stole to make the AI, but the calculation is something the AI must calculate on its own.
You can ask it for a Script to do that calculation and that Script might have minor issues but it probably will get you correct answers. It can also misinterpret your question and be completely incorrect but close enough that you can correct the scripts and make it useful for you.
Everything else about AI is total garbage. Like it can find your grammar and punctuation problems but it can’t replace your emails or a review. It can… Sort of… But more often than not it spits out purposeless garbage.
Like a ruler, it’s a tool. I’m sure people did not fear rulers when they were first invented as much as people fear this AI thing which is nothing more than a statistical prediction system. Predict the next letter or next word or next paragraph and you call it an llm. But it’s just predicting based on a statistical model. Nothing to fear inside the box. If your job is to write stuff, then yeah, now even I could write a novel… But maybe I would write a Nobel and not even notice the difference because I’m not a writer. But people will note the difference so Might not make money as an AI writer if my influence on the actual work is not compelling. The AI itself can’t suddenly decide. I’m. Sure they can add a random number generator and pretend it’s deciding something. But it won’t wake up one morning and write a poem about green ants from Mars. Unless you ask it, it won’t do.

Ok I hear you but how do you know you are getting the proper formula unless you already know it and AI is just refreshing your memory?
I do the same, sometimes I forget the syntax of a lesser use function. It is borderline faster to ask AI than it is to go to the reference material (emphasis on borderline) but I only trust it because I would recognize if the info AI is giving me is inaccurate. Even at that it sucks because I have to sift through the rest of the buttering bullshit AI normally pads their answers with… it’s like trying to get a recipe off a recipe site, I don’t care where you learn the recipe lady or why it makes you cry

Ok, the reason we all fear (and should fear) THIS ruler is because making and using it is literally destroying our environment. Not only that, this ruler also comes with the great side effects of mass surveillance, loss of democracy, diminishing professional standards, cognitive decline, etc.
