RX 7900 XTX is better because it has more x

[-] Zwiebel@feddit.org 195 points 2 months ago
[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 78 points 2 months ago

The best thing about this is that it's also on the x-axis.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 53 points 2 months ago

And they validated this data 4 times. It's really good data.

[-] prayer@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago

Actually, they only validated up to 4xs in the product name, so take the 5x result with a grain of salt, one of the Xs aren't validated.

[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 months ago

"Thanks Steve."

X is deprecated. Use the RWayland 7900 WaylandTWayland instead.

[-] synapse1278@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

That's 50% more Xs ! You can beat this deal !

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

This bad boy can fit so many X's in it

But what about the xXx_RX_7900_xXx?

[-] EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 13 points 2 months ago

But X is bad, as proved by Elon Musk - so it should be the other way around.

I switched to duckduckgo before this bullshit, but this would 100% make me switch if I hadn't already.

Who wants random ai gibberish to be the first thing they see?

[-] zewm@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

DuckDuckGo started showing AI results for me.

I think it uses the bing engine iirc.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Sure, but it's trivial to turn it off. While you're there, also turn off ads.

Sounds like the advice you'd get in the first three comments asking a question on Reddit.

[-] overload@sopuli.xyz 19 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I wonder where they trained the AI model to answer such a question lol.

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Don't forget the glue on the pizza

[-] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 40 points 2 months ago

A.I. or Assumed Intelligence

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 14 points 2 months ago

That's pretty much it. It just assumes what the next word should be.

Here is what kagi delivers with the same prompt:

NB: quick answer is only generated when ending your search with a question mark

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 51 points 2 months ago

Problem is, you cannot trust it's not hallucinating these stats

[-] potustheplant@feddit.nl 21 points 2 months ago

And even if it's showing the correct number, you can't be sure how trustworthy the source is.

[-] bamboo@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

This applies to any information though, it’s got nothing to do with LLMs specifically.

At least it's citing sources and you can check to make sure. And from my anecdotal evidence it has been pretty good so far. It also told me on some occasions that the queried information was not found in it's sources instead of just making something up. But it's not perfect for sure, it's always better to do manual research but for a first impression and to find some entry points I've found it useful so far

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 months ago

The problem is that you need to check those sources today make sure it's not just making up bullshit and at that point you didn't gain anything from the genai

[-] wurstgulasch3000@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

As I said the links provide some entry points for further research. It's providing some use to me because I don't need to check every search result. But to each their own and I understand the general scepticism of generative "AI"

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

If you don't check everyone source. It might be just bullshitting you. There's people who followed your approach and got into hot shit with their bosses and judges

[-] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

There is absolutely value in something compiling sources for you to personally review. Anyone who cannot use AI efficiently is analogous to someone who can't see the utility in a graphing calculator. It's not magic, it's a tool. And tools need to be used precisely, and for appropriate purposes.

My plumber fucks up I don't blame his wrench. My lawyers don't vet their case work, I blame them.

That being said, I can't trust MKBHD is not hallucinating either.

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 34 points 2 months ago

its not completely useless... i only asked copilot one thing and it worked; 'how do i remove or completely disable copilot'

[-] lemann@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago

I love this 😂

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

ChatGPT4o can do some impressive and useful things. Here, Im just sending it a mediocre photo of a product with no other context, I didnt type a question. First, its identifying the subject, a drink can. Then its identifying the language used. Then its assuming I want to know about the product so its translating the text without being asked, because it knows I only read english. Then its providing background and also explaining what tamarind is and how it tastes. This is enough for me to make a fully informed decision. Google translate would require me to type the text in, and then would only translate without giving other useful info.

It was delicious.

[-] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Google: ok so the AI in search results is a good thing, got it!

It goes without saying that this shit doesn't really understand what's outputting; it's picking words together and parsing a grammatically coherent whole, with barely any regard to semantics (meaning).

It should not be trying to provide you info directly, it should be showing you where to find it. For example, linking this or this*.

To add injury in this case it isn't even providing you info, it's bossing you around. Typical Microsoft "don't inform a user, tell it [yes, "it"] what it should be doing" mindset. Specially bad in this case because cost vs. benefit varies a fair bit depending on where you are, often there's no single "right" answer.

*OP, check those two links, they might be useful for you.

[-] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

LLMs don't "understand" anything, and it's unfortunate that we've taken to using language related to human thinking to talk about software. It's all data processing and models.

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 4 points 2 months ago

Yup, 100% this. And there's a crowd of muppets arguing "ackshyually wut u're definishun of unrurrstandin/intellijanse?" or "but hyumans do...", but come on - that's bullshit, and more often than not sealioning.

Don't get me wrong - model-based data processing is still useful in quite a few situations. But they're only a fraction of what big tech pretends that LLMs are useful for.

7900 XTX; more powerful, therefore better.

7900 XT; cheaper, therefore better.

[-] neo@lemmy.hacktheplanet.be 14 points 2 months ago

I checked it, it’s true. Side note: it’s “the saté of AI.” FTFY. From what I’ve heard it’s even better than 🍿to sit back and watch this farce unfold.

[-] nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de 12 points 2 months ago

At the very least it failed in a way that's obvious by giving you contradictory statements. If it left you with only the wrong statements, that's when "AI" becomes really insidiuos.

[-] linearchaos@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

SearXNG only returns results search engines agree on. That removes ads and this bullshit

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

You can do this with practically any versus question and get hilarious results

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

Am i guessing it right that the XTX uses 50% more energy for the 20% more power?

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

That's generally how it goes at the very top of capacity yes.

It's not useless, it's saying you can't afford the better quality product you dirty, dirty poor.
