No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

That simply isn't the case, whether or not you choose to believe it, or tot it up on the massive axe you obviously have to grind in these matters. For whatever reasons, you're choosing to lump me in to a group of people I never belonged to in the first place, which is a -you- problem, and not mine.
And no, GPT is certainly not my primary learning aid upon French. In fact, it's one of about half a dozen tools I use, which I'm constantly cross-checking against each other for accuracy, forming an overall highly-useful 'teacher' of sorts. So when you lead with that pedantic little bit of fluff, what you're really telling me is that you have no idea what you're talking about. You seem to see these things in highly binary terms, once again a "you" problem.
Yeah sure, bonne année and cheers, mate.
I’m sorry, you literally openly praised Scam Altman’s product as a massively superior option to web searching yes? Highly nuanced, saves you a ton of time, remember? And your response to the most obvious flaw with this use case is to deny you are affected by the problem in any way and to deflect the topic onto my attitude?
You genuinely remind me of my late uncle who snapped at us every time we told him to quit smoking. He was so convinced it wouldn’t catch up to him, had a hundred justifications. I’ll never forget the way his young daughter cried at the funeral. And before you and your “AI enhanced workflow” get into a whole thing about how cigarettes are different from computer programs, I’m not calling ChatGPT a Marlborough Red, I’m calling you bull headed. I could have just said as much, but as you’ve noticed, I like my fluff.
Anyway, I love how on the one point you addressed, your actual argument shifts from “it’s incredibly beneficial” to “it’s merely an insignificant fraction of my workflow!” Like, notice how your literal first instinct isn’t to defend the usefulness of chatgpt in this instance but to defend the integrity of your French by assuring me you are using legitimate sources as well.
This is the same pattern all AI victims I’ve spoken with have fallen into. It begins with “oh it saves me so much time it’s so useful!” Then as we interrogate how it’s useful to them it turns out all it does is waste their time with a bunch of bullshit they need to verify when they could have just gone directly to the source they use to verify in the first place.
That is if they even bother to verify, btw. But I honestly don’t know which direction is worse. A huge issue is the ones who “verify” are then always completely convinced that they have verified everything correctly. You can imagine the dangers of this mentality
Eh, you know what?
Disengage
I'll just tell you hwat, though-- I'm open to talking to you in other circumstances, in which you're not so incredibly hot & bothered as you seem to be upon AI. I mean, I'm sure you have interesting things to say upon lots of matters.
No offense intended, but you seem like a young man, spittin' fire, which is... pretty much on point, right? And I don't mean that as a put-down, mate... I mean, we've all kinda been there, yeah.
You drunk or something guy? After two days of being online constantly you decide to finally dig this back up to make some “I’m so over it” announcement and insult me for two paragraphs?
What exactly do you want out of this interaction, me to say “wow thanks for not blocking me, yes I totally believe you when you say you are mature and unaffected one”?
And since you asked so politely, no, I’m not a man. Nice guess though, want to try again?
Well, then... you can pick better battles than this, can't you, upon someone who was already in your corner upon gender?
wow thanks for advising me to pick better battles, yes I’ll check my corner upon gender before selecting my next opponent
Make sure to drink some water before you go to bed tonight, okay?
XD
Have it your way, laddie.
And may it shine your way forward upon the rest of your life, lol.
