I remove the output from ChatGPT due to people not being happy with that.
I’ve spend some time reading all the results from Google on this topic and the overwhelming consensus is that it is not good to spray your cat with water.
This is true even if you use an unbiased search term.
Except when it hallucinates, draws from biased sources, or straight-up responds with false information.
I’d rather look through the available links myself and research the direct source things came from. AI isn’t trained to look specifically for factual information. Unfortunately, a lot of people aren’t trained for that, either. But we can still educate ourselves. Relying on a bot is putting one more space between the information you receive and the source that created it.
I’d rather get my information from as close to the original source as possible. Only then can I determine if the source is even worth trusting in the first place.
Thanks for replying. I prefer when people actually articulate their disapproval to something than just downvote it, as it allows the other person to understand more.
Your comment is very reasonable and it makes me think that I perhaps give them too much credit when it’s a subject I’m not an expert in. We have embraced LLMs at work as software engineers for small company and it allows us to save so much time on the stuff we do over and over again. But that because we know the subject matter and it’s quite easier to see when they’re hallucinating. I should be more cautious when using them for stuff I’m not familiar with.
At work I work for a good company and we save so much time making enterprise software using LLMs as tools that we recently got a pay rise and reduction of hours in the same day.
Highly cat dependent. Our cat knows “no” so when she keeps doing something, we spray her. She still cuddles us in bed and meets us at the door.
The main thing was jumping on the coffee table. I think it also helps that our table lifts up, and we let her jump on the in between part, so she sees it as a treat.
When mine end up beating eachother up because it’s raining or idk maybe it’s Tuesday, I pick up the one who likes being carried and plonk him down in another room. Otherwise there aren’t really any things that they do (in my presence) that warrant stopping.
PSA: Don’t spray your cats. It not only strains your relationship, it’s useless.
That’s all lies. I’ve sprayed my cat like 5 times in his life, and lo and behold, he doesn’t do the dumbasses things that got him sprayed anymore.

Sprays chatgpt
😂.
That made me chuckle. Naughty LLM.
On a level though I don’t really get the disdain for them as search is a nightmare now and it’s a lot easier to just get the LLM to do it for you.

When I use LLMs for search, I always ask for sources and then follow up.

No thanks, the spraying worked.
They call that anecdotal evidence, but if you actually look at the research then on the whole it is not ideal to do.
That said you do you it ain’t my cat.

Nopopppooooo yoouulll squish the poor kitty!!! You monster!!
/s obviously. It’s crazy how worked up people get online, how convinced they are that their way is the only right way.
I thought you should spray and nuke them.
I thought it was pay and loot for them.
Honestly the best thing that has worked for my cat is stern words and a finger in his face. He makes a “how dare you” face but stops doing the thing.
I hiss at mine, works 90% of the time. He just wanders off doesn’t seem to upset him and gets the point across

This is what I do too. I speak their language and they understand it perfectly.
