What is the most useful thing you’re using AI for?

Pretty basic question, I’m curious to know what the most useful thing you’re using AI for? Are you using things like Claude cowork for tasks, Codex or Claude code for programming, script writing, homework? Do you use it as a regular chat for companionship, are you using it for life advice? Really just curious how individuals are finding it useful to them Thanks

Help me understand AI a bit more because I don't think AI is as bad as everyone says.

Now I myself have not used AI a ton beyond making a funny picture or two on ChatGPT/Gemini and maybe asking it a few things on the fly if I need a second opinion on something - and sometimes it's been helpful. The biggest thing I hear from the "Fuck AI" crowd is that it ruins the creative circles like artists, authors, etc. because it copies their work. I sympathize with their hate, but I've heard an argument that it's not doing anything different than what we do when/if AI didn't p...

Slow browser agents are going to eat your AI budget and nobody's really talking about it yet

Okay so I've been thinking about this a lot lately and I feel like everyone's still stuck on the "which model is best" debate when there's a completely different cost problem creeping up on companies actually deploying this stuff. It's not the model. it's the steps. Like... a browser agent doing something that sounds simple: fill out a form, grab data from a dashboard, submit a thing. that's not 3 steps. that's observe, click, wait, observe again, oh there's a modal now, handle tha...

What's the worst that could happen from using my phone number for chatgpt?

I'm bored and I feel like messing around with the AI and having random conversations. I don't particularly care if those conversations get shown to third party advertisers or wherever it may go. I'm sure it would be boring to anyone else but me. I also don't care about occasional spam/scam calls as I have unlimited talk and text right now. My phone number only lasts 2 and a half more months anyway and then I might get a new one, so I don't consider it part of my identity. What I'd be concerned a...

Do you use Ai daily?Weekly?How often?

I am wondering how many of you guys truly are using ai on a daily basis. Is it for your work, for research, or just random silly questions? After seeing my grandpas using ChatGPT voice i can't imagine how did this go for the rest of society.

I asked ChatGPT to create a brand new reality show

Prompt: Make a reality show but the cast is historical figures from all time including celebrities and fictional characters. Create a name and a whole cast of characters including bit players. I want a list of 10 episodes with titles and synopsis for each. Mock up an image of the cast for the title card of the show. Also include a bio and picture of each cast member.
Having a lot of fun with this. I gave Chat a scenario: You get a body, and can travel back in time to change 5 events in human history. No objects, arrive naked, 1 hour to TCB before you're sent to the next chronological destination.

Having a lot of fun with this. I gave Chat a scenario: You get a body, and can travel back in time to change 5 events in human history. No objects, arrive naked, 1 hour to TCB before you're sent to the next chronological destination.

Granted, the 1st change would possibly nullify the need for one or more of the next 4 planned changes, but I was still curious to see what Chat would say. Interestingly enough, extended thinking mode is really bad at this. It thinks it's going to be able to do some very impossible things (likely in an attempt to shy away from any violence as a solution to a problem), or gain audiences with world leaders with no problems. But Instant is much more realistic and willing to get its hands dirty to ac...

Research on opinion on GenAI

Hello everyone, I am doing a questionaire on the opinion on Generative AI for one of my classes and I was wondering if some of you might be willing to fill it out :) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSey3mYRdaWG_rSL_iEkuoUD9y4zvLqX7dctu5n_8ajtgOOSAg/viewform?usp=dialog If you are interested I can share the results later. I hope this is not against the rules. Also English is not my first language but I tried my best to translate the whole thing :)

What does OpenAI do with our data?

Hi! I’ve been working in IT for over seven years now, and my office is next to some healthcare professionals. During a lunch break sitting on a bench in the sun, one of them asked me: If I enter my patients’ personal information into ChatGPT, is that a problem? I wasn’t sure how to answer him, in my opinion, yes, but what do you think? I’d be curious to hear your thoughts, and if there are any studies on the subject, I’d love to see them too! Thanks in advance for your responses! Hav...

Tell HN: Pearl's "useful" PoW AI mining is vaporware

Hi folks, to further inflate GPU prices through stupidity and greed, it seems that right now certain entities are trying to resurrect the GPU mining craze. They are trying to reinvent PoW as something useful through AI compute, but it seems that what they ended up with is just snake oil and vaporware. There is circumstantial evidence that, among others, NVIDIA and Together AI are behind it in one way or another. Together AI hosts LLM inference on their own GPUs. Together AI subsidizes this infer...
