> I could use that type of assistance precisely when I hit that "niche problem" zone
Tough luck. On the other hand, we're still justified in asking for money to do the niche problems with our fleshy brains, right? In spite of the likes of Altman saying every week that we'll be obsoleted in 5 years by his products. Like ... cold fusion? Always 5 years away?
[I have more hope for cold fusion than these "AIs" though.]
> Popular search engines like Google and Bing are mostly garbage because they keep trying to shove gen AI in my face with made up answers.
No they became garbage significantly before "AI". Google at least has gradually reduced the number of results returned and expanded the search scope to the point that you want a reminder of the i2c api syntax on a raspberry pi and they return 20 beginner tutorial results that show you how to unpack the damn thing and do the first login instead.
