Thats our automod, we keep an eye out for blogs. Every now and then we get spammed with personal blogs about off-topic things.

The vote question would be better suited for the admin team and not mods, as we are just over this community.

Too many people being nasty in this thread, so we’ve removed the negative comments for rule 3.

Well it unfolded into what I described, so we removed the comments.

…we removed both parties comments because you both were going

you: no your a troll

them: no your a troll

you: no your a troll

them: no your a troll

Not because we took sides.

Calling eachother trolls is not being excellent to eachother (rule 3), if you want to talk about disagreements do it like adults.

Wow, it’s actually a thing

Thank you for understanding

Those sentences are obviously not being excellent to other commenters here. To avoid a ban (you have broken this rule twice, I’m being lenient) please follow rule 3.

Thanks

Your comment was removed for violating rule 3.

Whoops! We’ll get those back shortly, thank you!

Lol whoops

@Picasso@thelemmy.club Could you post that in the body for us?

We’re getting reports of this not being news/an article

My experience has been very different, I do have to sometimes add to what it summarized though. The Bsky account mentioned is a good example, most of the posts are very well summarized, but every now and then there will be one that isn’t as accurate.

Most of what I’m asking it are things I have a general idea of, and AI has the capability of making short explanations of complex things. So typically it’s easy to spot a hallucination, but the pieces that I don’t already know are easy to Google to verify.

Basically I can get a shorter response to get the same outcome, and validate those small pieces which saves a lot of time (I no longer have to read a 100 page white paper, instead a few paragraphs and then verify small bits)

Yes, I’m saving time. As I mentioned in my other comment:

Yeah, normally my “Make this sound better” or “summarize this for me” is a longer wall of text that I want to simplify, I was trying to keep my examples short.

And

and helps correct my shitty grammar at times.

And

Hallucinations are a thing, so validating what it spits out is definitely needed.

Yeah, normally my “Make this sound better” or “summarize this for me” is a longer wall of text that I want to simplify, I was trying to keep my examples short. Talking to non-technical people about a technical issue is not the easiest for me, AI has helped me dumb it down when sending an email, and helps correct my shitty grammar at times.

As for accuracy, you review what it gives you, you don’t just copy and send it without review. Also you will have to tweak some pieces that it gives out where it doesn’t make the most sense, such as if it uses wording you wouldn’t typically use. It is fairly accurate though in my use-cases.

Hallucinations are a thing, so validating what it spits out is definitely needed.

Another example: if you feel your email is too stern or gives the wrong tone, I’ve used it for that as well. “Make this sound more relaxed: well maybe if you didn’t turn off the fucking server we wouldn’t of had this outage!” (Just a silly example)

Writing customer/company-wide emails is a good example. “Make this sound better: we’re aware of the outage at Site A, we are working as quick as possible to get things back online”

Dumbing down technical information “word this so a non-technical person can understand: our DHCP scope filled up and there were no more addresses available for Site A, which caused the temporary outage for some users”

Another is feeding it an article and asking for a summary, https://hackingne.ws/ does that for its Bsky posts.

Coding is another good example, “write me a Python script that moves all files in /mydir to /newdir”

Asking for it to summarize a theory or protocol, “explain to me why RIP was replaced with RIPv2, and what problems people have had since with RIPv2”

And you’re entitled to that opinion my friend, lets have a good day.

They are very different. One is hostile (not excellent), the other is an opinion.

Thanks for pointing out the typo.
