    I asked microsoft's free one to generate an image of "a bolton wanderers fan called Casino". Now to be fair to it, it's done a half decent job 😃

It's not AI talking, it's a real bloke with a filter on to change his face.

That's exactly what AI would say. You big robot bastard.

got this from my hosting company the other day:

"We’ve noticed a recent increase in support requests being submitted using AI-generated content. While we understand the convenience these tools offer, we wanted to share a quick note on how this can impact support times and outcomes.
AI generated messages are often significantly longer than necessary, which can make it more time-consuming for our team to identify the core issue and respond efficiently. In many cases, the key problem is buried within a large amount of extra detail, or important context is unintentionally missed or misrepresented.

AI tools can often jump to incorrect conclusions, presenting issues or causes that don’t actually apply to your setup. This can send troubleshooting in the wrong direction and add unnecessary time to resolving the real problem.
This can lead to longer resolution times, back-and-forth clarification, and in some cases, incorrect assumptions about the issue at hand. Where a request appears to be AI generated and overly complex or unclear, our team may ask for clarification or request that the ticket be resent in a simplified format before proceeding, which will further delay resolution.
Our support team is highly experienced and trained to quickly diagnose and resolve problems. Clear, concise descriptions of the issue - including any relevant error messages, URLs, or recent changes - allow us to assist you much faster and more accurately.

If you do choose to use AI tools, we recommend reviewing and simplifying the message before sending, a human generated response, ensuring the core issue is clearly stated in your own words.
Ultimately, our goal is to resolve your issue as quickly and effectively as possible, and a short, direct request will always help us get there faster.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation."

Perplexity, usually, but only because I get the "pro" version free of charge, other than that Claude

Claude. But I do find it a bit preachy at times. It tends to make value judgements as opposed to just work as a tool.

chat gpt for work stuff

created my own gpts and "trained" them for various jobs to ensure I get consistent output

gpt for coding stuff also though I'm told Claude code is amazing

for general stuff use Gemini to switch things up but will play it off against gpt

was using mid journey for images but found dall e to be much better recently

other half uses Claude because she thinks it's the most polite

not clicked through to the AI section on pornhub yet but it's only a matter of time really

Even ChatGPT recommends Claude for coding 😁

Still using that lump of grey matter between the lug holes...

It's a muscle and you need to exercise it or it'll turn to mush and you'll end up talking ga ga.

None.

Happy that way.

If one can design a genuinely effective and consistent peat free compost for commercial growers than there are millions to be made.

Use Grok to make pictures and videos and to take watermarks off pictures.

Chatgtp for fitness plans and stuff. It's a great tool for that.

Not sure, it is a women's drink.

What do you get with a paid subscription for Claude/GPT/Gemini, etc. that you don't get with the free versions?
