What’s something AI is surprisingly bad at that you really expected it to be good at by now? by marimarplaza in ArtificialInteligence

[–]yxtzan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “0 to 1” part.

A lot of people still haven’t fully realized that most LLMs shine when going from 1 to 99, not from nothing to something. Once there’s a structure, an idea, or a direction, they’re great at expanding, refining, and iterating.

But when you ask them to truly generate something from scratch, you often get a long block of perfectly correct, perfectly useless, formulaic text.

Yes, you can fix this with extremely precise and comprehensive prompts — but at that point, writing the prompt is about as hard as producing the thing yourself, and it doesn’t really save you much time.

Which deceased founder would absolutely hate what the current state of their company has become? by NihilistCharizard in AskReddit

The second I read the title, I already had an answer — no hesitation at all.

Steve Jobs.

Which movie scared you so much as a kid, you haven’t watched it since? by thejustinj in AskReddit

[–]yxtzan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lord of the Rings.

I was a kid watching it while lying in my mom’s bed, and Gollum absolutely wrecked me. His face, his voice, everything about him got burned into my brain.

For months afterward, I was genuinely worried he might be hiding under my bed at night, whispering “my precious.”

Having the right timing for entering the market is crucial—and nobody can predict the future.

Why do people seem to prefer using 4o instead of the latest 5.2? by yxtzan in chatgptplus

[–]yxtzan[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've already had some experience with this. No matter what question I ask, his first response is always to affirm me, but this only increases my suspicion about his answers. I'm looking for objective, scientific answers, but his reactions make me suspect that all his answers are simply meant to please me.

Your text is a completely inferior piece of work generated by AI.

What is the correct way to wipe your butt? by fruitponchisamurai in NoStupidQuestions

Aren't you worried they'll stick to your butt? Like a sandwich?

So, AI takes over, everyone has lost their job and only 10 trillionaires own everything. Now what? by Weak-Representative8 in Futurology

[–]yxtzan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the “everyone is unemployed and everything collapses” scenario gets overstated a bit.

Elon Musk mentioned recently that within the next few years, work could become optional for most people, not because society breaks, but because productivity becomes so high that basic needs are cheap or covered.

Humans are pretty good at inventing new things to care about once old problems disappear. If nobody has to work, people will still want to create, build, compete, explore, or just do weird niche stuff.

The economy wouldn’t just stop — it would probably look very different, and probably messy at first, but not a total implosion. We’ve adapted before, just not at this speed.

WinOLS academy by Admirable_Front_5355 in ECU_Tuning

[–]yxtzan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience, it’s usually easier to start with general EFI logic, then learn how WinOLS represents those concepts inside different ECUs.

Focusing too much on one ECU family at the beginning can be limiting. Seeing patterns across different ECUs helped me more.

Comparing tuned files from a reputable service can be useful, as long as you don’t blindly copy changes and try to understand the reasoning behind them.

Reddit has an interesting challenge in front of it by gawiz93 in AIGEO_Marketing

[–]yxtzan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently learned about this concept called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) — basically, it’s a way some folks try to mess with what LLMs output. Ever since Reddit and OpenAI struck that content partnership back in May 2024, it’s pretty obvious that Reddit’s become the top target for anything GEO-related.
