If you prefer to know nothing about PNG compatibility rather than something that might be true about PNG. That’s fine but definitely not my approach.
Also, as I said to another commenter. Critical thinking is not some tool you decide to use on some comments and not others. An AI answer on some topics is actually more likely to be correct than an answer by a human being. And it’s not some stuff I was told by an AI guru it’s what researchers are evaluating in many universities. Ask an human to complete various tasks and then ask the AI model and compare scientifically the data. And it turns out there is task where the AI outperforms the human pretty much all the time.
YET on this particular task the assumption is that it’s bullshit and it’s just downvoted. Now I would have posted the same data myself and for some reason I would not see a single downvote. The same data represented differently completely change the likelihood of it being accurate. Even though at the end of the day you shouldn’t trust blindly neither a comment from an human or an AI output.
Honestly, I’m saddened to see people already rejecting completely the technology instead of trying to understand what it’s good at and what it’s bad at and most importantly experiencing it themselves.
I wanted to know what was generative AI worth so I read about it and tried it locally with open source software. Now I know how to spot images that are AI generated, I know what’s difficult for this tech and what is not. I think that’s a much healthier attitude than blindly rejecting any and all AI outputs.
You put way too much trust in AI. AI is seldom right. It is however very good at sounding like it knows what it’s talking about. It’s like a conservative podcaster.
It’s not irrelevant, it’s that you don’t actually know if it’s true or not, so it’s not a valuable contribution.
If you started your comment by saying “This is something I completely made up and may or may not be correct” and then posted the same thing, you should expect the same result.
What I dont understand is why you would perceive this content as more trustworthy if I didn’t say it’s AI.
Nobody should trust blindly some anonymous comment on a forum. I have to check what the AI blurbs out but you can just gobble the comment of some stranger without exercising yourself some critical thinking?
As long as I’m transparent on the source and especially since I did check some of it to be sure it’s not some kind of hallucination…
There shouldn’t be any difference of trust between some random comment on a social network and what some AI model thinks on a subject.
Also it’s not like this is some important topic with societal implications. It’s just a technical question that I had (and still doesn’t) that doesn’t mandate researching. None of my work depends on that lib. So before my comment there was no information on compatibility. Now there is but you have to look at it critically and decide if you want to verify or trust it.
That’s why I regret this kind of stubborn downvoting where people just assume the worse instead of checking the actual data.
Sometime I really wonder if I’m the only one supposed to check my data? Aren’t everybody here capable of verifying the AI output if they think it’s worth the time and effort?
Basically, downvoting here is choosing “no information” rather than “information I have to verify because it’s AI generated”.
Edit: Also I could have just summarized the AI output myself and not mention AI. What then? Would you have checked the accuracy of that data? Critical thinking is not something you use “sometimes” or just “on some comments”.
Also it’s not like this is some important topic with societal implications. It’s just a technical question that I had (and still doesn’t) that doesn’t mandate researching.
So why “research” it with AI in the first place, if you don’t care about the results and don’t even think it’s worth researching? This is legitimately absurd to read.
I understand that. It’s the downvoting of the clearly marked as AI LLM response. Is it detrimental to the conversation here to have that? Is it better to share nothing rather than this LLM output?
Was this thread better without it?
Is complete ignorance of the PNG compatibility preferable to reading this AI output and pondering how true is it?

Now I think this conversation is getting just rude for no reason.
I think the AI output was definitely not the “I’m lucky” result of a Google search and the fact that you choose that metaphor is in bad faith.
I, and I assume most people, go into the comments on Lemmy to interact with other people. If I wanted to fucking chit-chat with an LLM (why you’d want to do that, I can’t fathom), I’d go do that. We all have access to LLMs if we wish to have bullshit with a veneer of eloquency spouted at us.
downvoters: is it wrong?
I don’t know. If the poster couldn’t be bothered to fact-check, why would I? It is just safer to assume that it can be misinformation.

Considering it named CVE-2019-7317, which was fixed in April 2019, it’s already hallucinating and not worth reading further into it.
As you can see it’s irrelevant apparently. If it’s AI generated it will be downvoted.

I did check some of the references.

You realize that if we wanted to see an
AILLM response, we’d ask anAILLM ourselves. What you’re doing is akin to :I understand that. It’s the downvoting of the clearly marked as AI LLM response. Is it detrimental to the conversation here to have that? Is it better to share nothing rather than this LLM output?

Are you really asking why advertising that “the following comment may be hallucinated” nets you more downvotes than just omitting that fact?
You’re literally telling people “hey, this is a low effort comment” and acting flabbergasted that it gets you downvotes.
