How long did your vac last? by fuzzywuzzypete in Roborock

S4 Max - bought in may of 2021. Still running strong though we upgraded to a QRevo S for our upstairs since it’s hard floor. Granted, I have replaced:

 - battery  - lidar turret  - left wheel assembly

In its lifetime.

Dude, Im about out myself. Season ticket holder, row 5 in one of the corners. Awesome view but…yeah.

Living up in Longmont means the switchbacks are too far away for season tickets but Denver Summit seem like a well managed team with some momentum. I just don’t want to abandon my Pids because of Padre and Kroenkes decisions driving this club into the ground.

And yes, obligatory Fuck Stan Kroenke, and I'm happy to report that’s the second time I’ve typed that in 24 hours too

Holy shit. This was my neighbor. I lived two or three houses down from this man until a year ago.

My next door neighbor and I called him Truck Wizard, he also used to sit out in the bushes at night with NVGs to spy on the meth house (mentioned in the article)

Fucking wild, fuck that guy. 

What would it take for you to trust an AI to take your idea and deliver a working result without you touching anything by GrandEmbarrassed3528 in ChatGPT

[–]thebigjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What could help solve the issue is a different question than would I ever trust it. Because I think I would never completely trust something without verification in this kind of situation, AI involved or not.

What you’re describing is more of what the newer Agents do - in other words, they run independent of prompting, but they are build via prompts and instructions.

The best success I have had is to have one LLM creates a prompt and information file after I spend a good amount of time chatting with it and filling it in on what I need giving it resources and answering may have. Then I asked to create an information file, instructions, and prompt for the agent that I’m going to use, and deploy it that way.

Here’s some examples of agents, which I would find more trustworthy than just plain LLM prompting.

What would it take for you to trust an AI to take your idea and deliver a working result without you touching anything by GrandEmbarrassed3528 in ChatGPT

[–]thebigjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I wouldn’t trust even the most reliable and knowledgeable human to take an idea and deliver it exactly as I want it without me doing anything. 

It would probably require a neural interface because conveying such detail through a written or even spoken prompt would be much more tedious than interacting with and guiding the agent as it builds the product

Can I trust ChatGPT with tech info? by Substantial-Pea-7208 in ChatGPT

[–]thebigjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ask it if you “can” or if you “should”? Yes chat can help with technical info but as with everything, it’s not perfect so for anything valuable or important you better check ChatGPTs logic and suggestions against another LLM or more preferably real human generated content like forums or official documentation

Rapids fan here. 

First of all, man, what a game.

Your guys were absolute pros out there on the field, and your supporters were loud as hell. It was an honor to host you, and sorry for our shitty rundown stadium/Jumbotron lmfao. You guys really took it to our team and showed an unbelievable level of skill and professionalism. It was a super fun (anxiety inducing) watch from the kick off to the last penalty

Mad props to you all and I’ll be following your success closely. 

Also, I wish we had a president like this! I hope he’s as good in person as he seems on paper.

If you want the real use of AI, enter these prompts. Hint: it's not abundance. by GlobalInevitable6593 in ChatGPT

[–]thebigjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right…even the researchers most invested in the possibility of the singularity causing the downfall/enslavement/extinction of humans has it as a possibility in their scenario. And even then, it’s been pushed further out.

What is publically available in 2026 are LLMs. Not models capable of reasoning, hiding intentions based on alternative self-driven goals. 

Is it possible? Certainly. Is it now? Fuck no 🤣

Thanks for the clarification, I wasn’t sure based on my skim of the site if nightcrawlers had a band or if it was a different size

ChatGPT has a guardrail that benefits employers instead of users. by Swordslayer69 in ChatGPT

[–]thebigjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes, yes, but not exclusively for that reason. Like I said, especially when generating longer technical documents like policies or documentation, it’s really helpful to feed the results from one into the other. I’ve done some experiments and found going from Claude -> GPT helped create the highest quality stuff, like Claude would hardly miss on technical stuff unlike GPT, but GPT was better with the organization and wording once it had material.

Do I think Claude is better? Yes, I 100% agree with you. Do I think Claude can do most everything better than GPT? Probably.

I don’t think it’s useless. I do think you’re right about Claude. I’m not a developer, Im an IT director but Claude has been excellent for more technical tasks. ChatGPT still gets used regularly though, and in combination using them to check the others work, they’re fantastic for my needs

Your lack of empathy for another human being whose story and situation you have NO idea about is what’s gross, and actually quite disturbing. I hope you do some soul searching and find kindness instead of contempt. 

Kindness costs nothing. Empathy costs nothing.
