    It’s your choice not to use a tool. But don’t blame the tool because you refuse to see it’s use. This type of meme is no different then the bullshit I see with republican memes. It’s some made up fantasy placating your own bias.

        What do you use for DNS level blocking on android? I used to have an app, but it changed for the worse. Do you just set adguard dns as private DNS in your phone settings?

          I use NextDNS with some couple of lists:

          Lightswitch05, Steven Black, notracking, Goodbye ads, 1host , NSAblocklist, Windows spy blocker, HaGeZi - multi ultimate, OISD

          i use this same setup on windows too and i have a bunch of other settings too but i feel that it’s better if you change them by yourself the only thing i suggest is to disable logs or if you still want them then you should at least change their position in EU

      They’re making it up. Just like how Republican memes make up situations about dangerous immigrant crimes happening in their city. AI bullshit on lemmy is the same shit as Republican immigration views on the right.

    Sure thing, you want to make a sandwich. What a fun idea to put a twist on a longstanding lunch tradition! I like the way you think! Would you like me to help pull together an organized list of ideas for some delicious breaded creations?

    I hate the ones where they have things made out of unexpected materials like jello keyboard. It they have marbles or whatever and they spread it on toast as is gets smashed like jam.

    Like, how is that supposed to impress anyone?

    Huh, I’ve lived without ads of any kind other than what I see at the tramstop or going past stores that I never thought about AI ads being a thing. It’s not surprising at all, both their existence and people falling for it, but it’s just such a weird realisation.
    The often used idea, in all kinds of media, of someone living in a weird dystopia and not really being aware of it but slowly getting hints and seeing stuff that makes them go “huh, this is some weird shit that’s apparently daily life for a lot of people” is something I feel more and more. And this isn’t some “I’m smarter than them/everyone else” thing, it’s just that my brain is wired in a way where I often get these moments of difference, and I know many people feel the same, especially here. Never used or had interest in AI for anything other than a few minutes of “let’s try this AI image generation thing to make weird shit”.

      Pinecone jam actually exists, but in defense of your joke, it has a very particular taste. You have to really love licorice to enjoy it.

    Honestly, AI is a good tool for making dinner plans and digging out cooking recipes. Exactly the stuff that I don’t want to waste my own brain or time doing. It’s a waste of resources and disrespectful to the idea of it of being intelligent, but it’s actually helpful for those kind of tasks.

    It’s also great for holiday planning. You can spend an entire week of free time to plan a three day holiday by browsing the internet yourself or you can ask AI to do it for you in minutes.

    The internet has gone to shit. Your searches don’t find anything but ads and promoted clickbait content. The AI don’t mind that. It’ll gladly browse hundreds of pages and return an answer to you.

    At least for now. Eventually it’ll be shittified too. More than it already is.

    you may laugh but that is the end goal. we’re already seeing this in people who are overreliant on AI: you get used to off-loading your brain activity so much that you need to consult AI for the most basic shit. like remembering to eat, or calculating 4+10.

        My daughter was doing math, basic second grade math, but the way they teach kids to solved math problems now is just not how we did it 30 years ago, and so when she has a problem, 9+8, and she’s supposed to show her work, I have no idea the methods or anything that she’s using and I am zero help to her.

        Definitely not going to ask an AI though, that’s silly.

          That 9+8 thing holds true even when helping kindergarteners.

          By “show your work” they mean “draw 9 blue pens and 8 red pens and then say you counted 17.”

          Teacher do it that way during class and wants everyone to do same but we don’t have the context so us adults overthink it.

            another option would be to prove it from first principles using Peano arithmetic. the teacher would probably love that.

            Yeah, this is some method of turning the 9 into 10, because it’s easier to add 10 and 7 than it is 9 and 8, but I don’t have enough info to help, because I just get told I’m doing it wrong by my kid. I was never into it either as a kid, but mental math would end up failing me later in life, so I’d like to help her, I just need more info!

              It’s funny because when I was in school I use to get lectured for not showing my work the way it was taught, but I didn’t like the way it was taught so I came up with my own method. Turns out my method is now what they teach in school (basically, and obviously completely a coincidence).

              If you’d like more research and context, the term to search for is “common core math”.

              Based on your other comments though, you’ve mostly got it down already though, but for the exact steps you’ll be able to find pretty easily.

              Rough example (don’t quote me on it though, not a teacher): 12 x 7 isn’t as “intuitive” as 10 x 7 or 12 x 5. So you do (10 x 7) + (2 x 7) = 70 + 14 = 84. You find the “common” “core” to make it easier, kind of like how we handled multipling fractions. The over all objective is to make it easier to do math quickly in your head, but since they are teaching it to kids, you have to prove you understand the thought process, which makes it seem like it’s just over complicating things.

              Either way though, kudos to you for trying to learn the new way and helping your kid with their homework in general. No matter what your kid will turn out great with a parent who shows they care like you do.

              Oh I’ve seen that described years ago in reddit. It surprised me back then but when I think about it, all my adult life I’ll do that, by now, instinctively.

              I think I also saw to break down e.g. 7+8 into 5+2+5+3.

          “Incorrect. 10+4 is equal to 14. However, 4+10 is equal to 14. So yes, 10+4 is the same as 4+10.”
