Have you ever "talked" to "Google AI" about your Fiero ? (Page 2/2)

There was a thread on here a year or so ago about ChatGPT's (2 at the time, I think) inability to count the 'r's in 'strawberry' where we talked about it. LLMs predict the most likely 'next token' in any given response, and not necessarily what is true. It's "what word comes next" not "is this entire statement true" inherently. Models have gotten better as time has gone on, but it's still error checking external to the pattern recognition and it isn't ever going to be perfect.

That being said, I trust it enough that I use it in almost all of my daily tasks and have by-and-large replaced my on-the-fly Google searches with AI searches. For non-reversible decisions, though, I'm on a trust-but-verify basis.

I love the idea of your AC swap. Have you used Cursor? I use Bolt.new for python/web app stuff but it doesn't do low level programming any better than Gemini/ChatGPT. Would be a fun project for it.




I haven't used Cursor, but I'm just doing Arduino boards, using their code (which is basically C++). I'm just using Grok Code for that.

Cursor has a free tier so it might be worth a look. It's handy as all hell.

I'll try it.
