Unless you are working on some engineering or scientific problem that needs these models to get to a solution, even if it works for you, it's still a waste of energy.

    I had heavy problems to solve. Claude Opus could solve some. I could solve them too, but with claude it's faster. One recent problem would take around two days if I would do it, but claude did it in half an hour.

    I'm not advertising claude, if it gives bullshit response I turn it off instantly. Like with every tool, you need to learn to use it.

    Another example: In the app I work on, there's a huge list of city integration files. I had a loose set of specifications for a new city, and with claude I could roll out a new prototype in no time. It saved me about a month of work.

    It's expensive and energy hungry for sure.

    A tankie using AI, that's amusing. Could you explain why?

    If I am the tankie you must be the lgbtq femboy. There's nothing wrong with it. We are here for different reasons :D.

    Stereotypes aside, aren't you using one?

    • Image processing, (e.g.: Camera enhancement, gimp, rawtherapee are full with AIs)
    • sound processing, (noise reduction, etc..)
    • text processing
      • reasoning models for programming, math
      • LLMs for grammar checking / searching when I don't know the keyword / researching when I'm not interested that much about the topic, but I want multiple sources / getting common knowledge I don't know yet.
    • Recently I tried 3D asset generation. Damn it gave me a perfect character model. But it's not for work so I'm not gonna pay for it.
    • etc..

    They are useful.
