Not an advertisement I swear, but I honestly love language models, I specifically use Chat GPT and Gemini ALL the time.
I’m someone who loves research and learning. I always have questions on all sorts of things. Before GPT I would be googling things for hours each day, visiting forums, watching YouTube videos, etc.
Now with GPT I can ask so many questions on things I am curious about, and even ask follow up questions or ask for more in depth explanations.
I think I am also a bit ADHD and so my brain is always jumping around different topics which makes me curious on specific things. My latest is insects, specifically wasps.
I absolutely hate bugs, and wasps are the worst. But I am now learning more and more how important a lot of bugs actually are to the ecosystem. It’s really a great way to learn and engage with topics when you can ask follow up questions or ask for more details on specific aspects.
TLDR: GPT has replaced 90% of my research that Google used to be.
Important Note: Please be aware language models can be innacurate and prone to mistakes, so always verify the data from other sources if you need accurate information and not just general knowledge.
I’m on the other side, but what LLMs did - they taught me to cherish unique content creators. Just a week ago I had a very specific question and an indian guy on YT put an effort to draw diagrams explaining it in his video. His English was bad to be honest, but I appreciated how he fought with it and made his best to explain the subject at hand with all the challenges he faced. I came to enjoy people who do stuff that can’t be average’d by the math machine, I came to praise weirdos like myself even more. Being unique, being yourself, being deviant is what makes you more human than you are, that’s what maybe can be called your soul.
