over the past week, it's been rare for me to make any non-routine decision without at least getting some cursory input or analysis from the AI today: "what is the best time for me to activate sprinklers for my area? give me a specific date"

AI-first thinker. I am doing the same but I even ask it trivial things like “what should I eat at this restaurant?”

@Scobleizer you have to have a computer tell you what you want to eat? you need to unplug for a while.

@cwizprod1 When I walk into a new restaurant I want to know what it knows. Which is a LOT more than you do.

@Scobleizer I think I'd be looking up google reviews, not trusting an AI that makes stuff up

@cwizprod1 You clearly haven’t used it. It is way way way way better than Yelp.

@cwizprod1 It is way way way better than Google reviews too.

@Scobleizer it doesn't, however, know what looks good to me on the menu. or what sounds good. unless the resturant is a really small fly by night place, everything they have is going to taste good.

@cwizprod1 It teaches you a lot more than that. I don’t argue with people who refuse to try.

@Scobleizer Robert - I spend half my day arguing with it. i'm a programmer for cripes sake - I'm working toward being able to write my own implimentations. I still dont' think it's necessary to consult it for mundane everyday things.

@Scobleizer i'd be teaching IT if openAI allowed it to learn from user feedback, in fact
