This might be the best use for it. The Amazon AI review summary and Google search summary have been very helpful. The google search summary is often useful in that it let’s me know that there probably isn’t an answer on the Internet for a question that won’t take days of scouring to find.
I repeat myself but, and this might even sound elitist, but if you’re an academic, you will have exponentially greater use of AI than if you ain’t.
You get what you put. So if you put effort and know how to communicate and know coding and know what’s going on, you’re gonna have a better time than if you don’t. But still, that said, you have to be very careful because it is so comforting, humans are very susceptible to praise and flattery, we want to be lured in, we let ourselves be fooled, like a magic trick.
If you know it’s happening you have some defense, imagine all the people who don’t and get lost. but I suppose that’s the danger with anything really. Make sure you don’t get screwed over, as best you can. Sorry for rambling, I have a lot of thoughts on many matters, and I think it’s important that we talk about these things so we can figure it out together.
That’s how I feel right now and that’s that!
I tell folks to take what it tells you with a grain of salt because you can get it to agree with you no matter what, eventually. It will also confidently give you answers even if your question was vague or missing important specifications.
