What do you think grammarly is dude? Glorified spell and auto check, which people already utilize everyday. But of course new tools are looked down upon, the hypocrisy of people is amazing to see. It comes in cycles, people hated spell check, got used to it and now it’s prominent in every life, autocorrect, same thing is happening.

And now the same is happening again. If they want to claim no ai, no spellcheck, no auto correct, and no grammarly for emails. Everyone already uses “AI” everyday. But theirs is acceptable… okay…

Right but to detect close-enough spellings and word orders, using a curated index or catalogue of accepted examples, is one thing.

To train layers of algorithms in layers of machines on massive datasets to come up with close enoughs would be that but many times over the costs.

You would be a moron to use llms for spellchecking.

To clarify to you, not all programs are equal. Its not all different methods to do the same thing at the same cost.

A tool is a tool dude. Why are you trying to justify one over the other?

[–] finitebanjo 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Ok but why do you think it's okay to use a wrecking ball for a task that requires a chisel? You're creating low quality high cost work just because it's fast and easy.

Why do you think grammarly is a thing dude…?

People ALREADY use an llm for spellcheck, and it’s acceptable, yet this crosses a line…? You say people won’t use one… yet it’s already been a thing for years, your ignorance is i ionic as shit here.

It’s always funny what people will find acceptable, but also balk at when it’s fundamentally the exact same thing.

Of these devs want to claim “no ai” and everything is human, than they can’t rely on spellcheck either. Both are automated tools no?

[–] finitebanjo 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Grammarly predates commercial generative AI, as I attempted to explain to you before. It's over a decade old. You clearly don't understand the core mechanisms of any of these things.

[–] SchmidtGenetics 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You seem to be missing the point that’s been made here since your ignorance is “ai bad”.

A tools a tool, any tool can be abused. So it’s a very hypocrital view to say these tools are acceptable, but make up arbitrary reasons why those ones aren’t. That’s what’s being done here, and why people are trying to shift the conversation focus to the “tool itself”.

Since even photoshop, grammarly, or any other non-ai tool is labour a usable too.

If we want humans doing stuff, why is a brushing tool acceptable? It’s not a human doing the work. So yeah the views here are extremely hypocritical.

bro just doesn't get it, sorry you're slow mate

Says the hypocrite that says one tool that replaces humans is okay, but not another.

Okay buddy, just because you can’t make a coherent argument or come up with a legitimate reason why one’s acceptable doesn’t make me slow. If anything just shows how flawed and fucked your reasoning is.

People have always used tools to replace humans. So this decry NOW over ai is what’s bullshit. They shouldn’t enable to use PS brush tools either. Same process, same outcome, the ai can actually be able to do more and remove labor. But now “that’s” not okay. This is what me and other users are pointing out.

But your “ai bad” bias, has made you ignorant to any actual discussions.

If you don’t want ai, than you don’t want grammarly, spellcheck, auto correct, PS or any other tool. If you do, you’re frankly a bloody Luddite hypocrite.

[–] finitebanjo 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're not even arguing at this point, you're just repeating false claims I already debunked as if saying things louder might make you more correct.

[–] SchmidtGenetics 0 points 1 day ago

What have you debunked?

The same “repeating” can be said to you, and is probably why you’re projecting more fallacies onto me.

Ant “debunking” you’ve done, is to justify your bias that certain tools to replace humans are okay. And that’s obviously a hypocrital take, so what’s your real issue here? Just like anyone else, the term “ai” is just a trigger and you don’t like it? It to have it poured to your already “acceptable” tools make you go “REE”?

These same conversations were had with luddites like you when spellcheck came out, than PS, than grammarly. And guess what? They’re acceptable in everyday use.

The same will happen with AI as people treat more like a tool than a toy. Than jackasses like you will be left behind again, but then try and justify it like you are beee when the next one comes out.

Hypocritical Luddites like you are just the worst kind of fucking people.
