FOR WHAT. [/quote]

+1 Just as OP points out, they never give examples. I think it's because they use it for stupid stuff like adjusting the tone of an email or doing some basic analysis that anyone with a brain and a modest attention span could do.

I hesitate to write this because I don't want to insult people who use AI (but then, they have to problem insulting me, by constantly posting that if I get poor results from AI it must be because I didn't use it correctly because it's axiomatic that the AI works perfectly)... my impression is AI is good for two things:
1. Coding (not my field, but I'll accept the testimonials here)
2. People who have difficulty with tasks like writing emails and performance reviews or organizing their thoughts generally[/quote]

As a researcher it's so useful. A little bit too useful honestly.[/quote]
I'm guessing you missed the article about how it made up published research? There's an expert in Homer who said chatgpt cited articles and people who don't exist. A lawyer who used it to research caselaw got destroyed by a judge because it made things up.

From MIT:
[QUOTE]For an example of how AI hallucinations can play out in the real world, consider the legal case of Mata v. Avianca. In this case, a New York attorney representing a client’s injury claim relied on ChatGPT to conduct his legal research. The federal judge overseeing the suit noted that the opinion contained internal citations and quotes that were nonexistent. Not only did the chatbot make them up, it even stipulated they were available in major legal databases (Weiser, 2023).[/QUOTE]

Be really freaking careful there.

I literally question everything I read. I don't take anything at face value. It sounds like you only want to use AI if you can get it to do your job without you doing any work. Right now, it does not have that capability.[/quote]Um. It's a giant leap from "be careful" to "YOU ONLY WANT IT TO DO YOUR JOB!!!!!!1" Chill. [/quote]
