  • Why AI writing is so generic, boring, and dangerous: Semantic ablation.

    @cstross Well, that explains why every time I tried #AI for improving a text snippet, I was very disappointed.

    It always wants to convince me that I should remove any uncommon sentence structures and replace them with generic ones, which often removes any personality from written text.

    If you ask it to make a small addition to an existing text, it likes to rephrase everything in a more generic way and is unable to add a subtext layer. Honestly, it's just useless for writing in my opinion.

  • "I just found out that it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time."

    @Natasha_Jay This really is a major issue with #AI.

    Even if you use things like #Gemini "Deep Research", it still loves to make things up it couldn't research properly. For instance, I once tried to use it for researching axle ratios of cars and every time I've repeated the same request, it came up with different numbers.

    (It can come up with decent results though for topics where lots of scientific papers are available, like life cycle emissions of vehicles with different propulsion types.)
