Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it

Except for the medicine stuff, I am confident I would be able to do all of those things actually, given a bit of time for research and enough motivation. Even more critically, when I have a problem like that where I don’t care enough to figure it out for myself, I call upon the expertise of an actual human that really knows things, not a glorified autocomplete with internet access.

So aside from the things that you can't do, you can do anything.

I bet you Google it.

  Why yes, I do frequently google things. Searching for proper tutorials and official documentation for technical subjects is a more intelligent thing to do than asking an LLM to do all my thinking for me. As for the actual humans I was talking about there, I meant bringing my car in to be serviced by a mechanic as an example, if I learned the mechanic working on my car was just following instructions provided by chatGPT I would be fucking livid.

    Okay? I'm not sure how any of this is detracting from the point I'm making here. You can't do everything yourself. Nobody can do everything for themselves, society is too complicated now. So we pick the things we're good at. Not being good at troubleshooting your PC doesn't make you "stupid".
