anyone tried deepseek？

I have.

It's pretty much rubbish- just like the other AI stuff.

It's fine for basics and trying to write an essay when your skills are limited, but don't ask it for serious information.

As for anything negative about the Chinese government, it refuses to answer

"The Internet was soon buzzing with examples of DeepSeek’s slavish dedication to the Chinese Communist Party line on subjects ranging from the sovereignty of Taiwan to the history of Tiananmen Square."

Personally, I find that all of these AI chatbots write with the skill of a high-school student composing a book report. They are all very easy to spot, dripping as they are with mediocrity. In my mind it'll be a while before they routinely pass the Turing Test.

I would like a keyword search without AI inanity.

I have used AI for a number of things. One particular task saves me hours of work as AI is especially good at creating certain types of things that have strict parameters.

When it comes to digging out data, it spews out whatever it finds on the internet as fact.

My final use is to get past a mental block. I ask AI to complete the task, then use its suggestions as a starting point.

Google changed their old image search to AI - it no longer works

Google use AI to give voice directions on Google maps - The instructions are so bad I moved to Waze for navigation.

Whatsapp has 2 ways to access AI, but one covers message notifications - Zuckerberg's team are pushing their rubbish so I simply ignore it. However, the old search box is now AI so I'm stuck with that.

Apart from AI being generally crap and pointless for most internet users, it's going to change the way new generations see the world. Thinking skills aren't dead, but they will be.

Hang on. Whatsapp messages are scanned by Zukky's AI every time you search.

WA messages are encrypted, but who can access the AI?

@Fred

What sort of work do you do that is amenable to today's AI?
