        you didn’t demonstrate, you just claimed it. if doing the math in your head makes you feel good about yourself, do it… the cashier has a calculator and a scanner to save them time, you’re not complaining about the lack of definition in their arms or their poor work ethic, i hope…

  …but a properly functioning calculator doesn’t confidently state the square root of -1 is pi… all current AIs make shit up when they don’t actually find a factual answer, or parrot back wrong answers from whatever crap they trained on. Until the problems of recursive ingestion decay and lack of ability to introspect on the correctness or provenance of data is solved, they cannot be trusted and they give a false sense of confidence.

    garbage in garbage out- if you ask good questions you get good answers, if you know how to use a calculator it can do wonderful things.

      garbage in garbage out

      Yes

      if you ask good questions

      It’s way too late for that, the garbage already went in in the training stages, now you get garbage out
