There are plenty of things that can be improved by LLM’s and similar technology. It has been done plenty of times prior to the current A.I. bubble. But this kind of slop, posing as answers, needs to disappear. What is the point of this, other than virtue signaling that Google is an ”A.I. First Company”, aka drinkers of the Kool-Aid?

My query to Google was what word count I should equate to a page of text. The answer claims that it depends on a lot of factors and gives a rough estimate of 250-500 words. That is probably reasonable but it then goes of to claim that the bigger my line-spacing, the more words I can fit on a page. It’s just so hilariously dumb. Given how obvious it is that at least parts of this answer is wrong, I had to look further in the actual search-results. No time was saved for me, no value was created, nothing was gained.

This also ties back nicely to this.

It’s getting increasingly hard to use Office365 without being forced to interact with Copilot. If Microsoft love AI, good for them I guess, but I just want to read an e-mail or create a form or something similar. Don’t put your prompt in the way of me getting my job done.
