The best conversations I still have are with real people, but those are rare. With ChatGPT, I reliably have good conversations, whereas with people, it’s hit or miss, usually miss.
What AI does better:
- It’s willing to discuss esoteric topics. Most humans prefer to talk about people and events.
- It’s not driven by emotions or personal bias.
- It doesn’t make mean, snide, sarcastic, ad hominem, or strawman responses.
- It understands and responds to my actual view, even from a vague description, whereas humans often misunderstand me and argue against views I don’t hold.
- It tells me when I’m wrong but without being a jerk about it.
Another noteworthy point is that I’m very likely on the autistic spectrum, and my mind works differently than the average person’s, which probably explains, in part, why I struggle to maintain interest with human-to-human interactions.
This comment thread is great. @op good luck; people on Lemmy have little interest in real discussion. If you say anything pro-ML or anything less than far-left, you’ll get screamed at.
What are those “less than far left” opinions then? Because I’m sure if anyone were to prod you more than a little you’d be very happy to clarify what opinions make you such a pariah to Lemmy users.
If you miss being coddled to like Reddit, then go back there.
How about no, he can go where he likes, you can fuck off. Don’t like it? Go back to Reddit! Hurr Durr.
Someone once told me it’s specifically my fault USA is right leaning, then people dogpiled on me agreeing with them.
