whether you learn something new or not it's up to you, not the ai

likewise, you can copy and paste from SO and learn nothing

[-] NEILSON_MANDALA@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

exactly. ppl are like "AI can't teach you anything" and i'm like "well if you make zero effort to learn, you won't learn from humans either"

See, a teacher will give you a task to solve, preferably on your own, to teach you a thing. They won't give you a task and the solution so you can look at the solution and go "ah, yes, I understand".

A good teacher will do that. And even the best teacher can’t force you to learn if you don’t want to. LLMs can be a powerful tool for learning if you’re sufficiently motivated.

We're obviously talking about ideal situations because it is impossible in a normal conversation to acknowledge every single aberration. Regardless, if you learn by looking at the solution and going "i understand", you're doing yourself a disservice.

are you aware that there is more than one way to learn something

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 9 points 4 months ago

Sure. Most people learn best using variations on task solving.

[-] NEILSON_MANDALA@lemmy.world -3 points 4 months ago

"claude, what is 'using variations on task solving'"

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 6 points 4 months ago

Well? What's it saying?

[-] NEILSON_MANDALA@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

actually the last time i talked to claude was the day i was committed to the psych ward. i was just fucking with it, but i fucked with it a little too hard, and it refused to respond to me because it said i was dangerously insane

so if you want the AI to shut the fuck up for a little while, that's what you do

Cool, thanks for the advice. I find just not using it works fine. Also seems to help with staying on topic in a conversation and not shoving my medical history into everything.

[-] NEILSON_MANDALA@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago

look at what you made me do, you made me dig through your controversial comments to find one where you shoved your medical history into everything.

"I have ADHD and probably also the 'tism and I’ve never felt like hurting others or myself after eating sauce that happened to be red because it contained red ingredients. After eating anything, really, for that matter.
