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

Sam_Bass ,

Its not artificial intelligence, its artificial idiocy

FinalRemix ,

Nah. It’s real idiocy.

curry ,

No, they’re All Interns.

Noodle07 ,

It’s all probability, what’s the most probable idiocy someone would answer?

MonkderVierte ,

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

Maggoty ,

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

In one word: factory-overclocked

Maggoty ,

I’m sorry but we’re going to have to send that to the English teachers to see if it’s really one word…

ayyy ,

After VAR the ruling has been overturned.

(on mobile, so sorry for any formatting weirdness)

English teachers will only give you an arbitrary, subjective answer about whether it’s a word - you want a linguist if you want an objective answer.

Since we’re dealing with two different “words” (roots) here, factory and overclocked, the first thing to look for is compound stress. Many compound words in English get initial stress: compare “blackbird” and “a black bird”.

This isn’t foolproof, however. For some speakers there are compounds that don’t get compound stress - some speakers say “paper towel” as expected, while others say “paper towel”, but it’s still a compound either way.

So how can we actually tell that paper towel is one word? See if the first member of the potential compound (the non-head) can be modified in any way.

For example, we know doghouse is a compound because in “a big doghouse” big can only refer to the house, and cannot refer to “the house of a big dog”. Similarly, blackboard must be one word because it can take what appear to be contradictory modifiers: " a green blackboard".

So, in the same way, paper towel and toilet paper are one word because “big paper towel” can’t mean “a towel made from big paper” and “pink toilet paper” can’t mean “paper for a pink toilet”. (Toilet paper also gets compound stress.)

Yet another way to test is by semantic drift (meaning shift). As mentioned earlier, blackboards don’t have to be black, so the meaning of the compound doesn’t perfectly correspond to the pieces of the word - instead, the fact that it’s a vertical board you write on in chalk is much more important to the meaning. This is because once the pieces combine to form a new word, that new word can start to shift away from the meaning of the pieces. Again, however this process takes time, so it’s not a perfect test.

So, back to the original question: is “factory-overclocked” one word?

Well, it doesn’t get compound stress, and for me I can still say things like “it’s home-factory-overclocked” to mean that it was overclocked in its home factory, so the first member can take modifiers. And, the whole thing still means what the pieces mean.

So, in my grammar, “factory-overclocked” is two words. But for some of you “home factory overclocked” may not be possible, which would indicate that it’s started to become one word for you. Everyone’s grammar is different, but we can still test for these categories.

If you instead mean by your question, “can factory and overclocked be combined with a hyphen?”, however, I can’t help you, because language-specific writing conventions are subjective and arbitrary, and not something that linguists usually care very much about.

Maggoty ,

And this is why I love places like Lemmy. An offhand joke turns into an actual grammar lesson. Thank you!

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

potustheplant ,

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

asdfasdfasdf ,

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

wurstgulasch3000 ,

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

elucubra ,

When I query an AI I always end with “provide sources and bibliography for your reply”. That seems to get better replies.

db0 ,
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

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 ,

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”

ZeroHora ,
@ZeroHora@lemmy.ml avatar

The sources are the same result of the search? Or at least the top results?

db0 ,
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

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

jol ,

I wonder if they couldn’t feed the output back into gpt to realize the out makes no sense?

finitebanjo ,

First of all, yes

Second option is no

When presented with yes / no pick no, no is the clear yes

Yeah AI can be wonky, but what idiot would spend a shitload of money on a graphics card without even being willing to click an article and read a bit?

It’s on you if you do that. Even if the AI shit worked way better, why would you trust there aren’t shady things happening to influence the AI and have you spend more money.

My dad falls into this category he constantly replaces things with way worse things just because they are new, I can’t get my mind round how he can replace really good working stuff with new junk that isn’t even capable of doing the job.

Wish I was joking but he does this constantly.

webghost0101 ,

Thats where you say “hey dad do you still need this janky old…”

Then when the new stuf breaks you can come over and be the hero using his old reliable stuff.

Teknikal ,
@Teknikal@eviltoast.org avatar

If only he tends to give these things to the conmen installing the junk. I’ve tried to stop him wasting his money so many times but it’s futile I’ve tried to use his latest oven he had an amazing one before but when I tried to use the new one following every instruction he said and the actual manual I looked up online myself the food came out later absolutely fridge cold.

He insists his new cooker is brilliant, what can you do with that response to something that’s obviously broken from new and he should be returning.

He might need a home but I can’t do that to him truthfully, I just wish he had some common sense when it comes to things like appliances etc.

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.

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

Nytefyre ,

This is not going to stop me from wanting better research. I'll still go to Userbenchmark just to be sure. AI isn't going to tell me what it thinks and expect me to take it face value.

Meltrax ,

I think you’re missing that the AI said “The XTX is great, the XT is not worth it: choose the XT”.

Chewmungus ,

It’s prolly a bot

taiyang ,

A good AI summary would tell you the benchmark scores and general pricing, but yes, it’s better to go to UserBenchmark anyway— especially since the whole ploy from search is to keep you from going there, robbing the original source of it’s ad revenue.

Wrench ,

There’s nothing wrong about it.

Neither is worth it. But if you have unlimited money, XTX is the better card and therefore a better deal. But if money is a factor, get the XT because the performance per $$$ of the XTX isn’t worth selling a kidney.

bruhduh ,
@bruhduh@lemmy.world avatar

I think amd is worth it’s money tho, they scale their price to match their nvidia counterparts performance wise, i mean 7900xtx worth just as much as 4080 and performs as such but have more memory and is a better match for Linux gaming

Wrench ,

It’s worth it if you accept the post pandemic, post crypto prices to be the new normal.

I’m still rocking my old 980ti because I refuse to pay $600 for an old, mid tier card.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

Sure, but AI didn’t say that. It said: XTX > XT, get XT.

criticon ,

The AI response reads like when you are looking for something in Reddit and you get 3 very different responses in 3 different threads about the same topic

Wrench ,

Yep, my comment was tongue in cheek. It’s a useless result and only sort of makes sense as an overly reduced summary that has lost vital context.

The other reply is the obvious answer. Each answer is from a different viewpoint from a different user.

nekusoul ,
@nekusoul@lemmy.nekusoul.de avatar

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.

What do you expect from a Google AI? BUY SOMETHING BUY SOMETHING BUY SOMETHING.

A.I. or Assumed Intelligence

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

Lost_My_Mind ,

Hello, fellow humans. I too am human, just like you! I have skin, and blood, and guts inside me, which is not at all disgusting. Just another day of human!

Won’t you share a delicious cup of motor oil lemonaide with me? It’s nice and refridgerated, so it will cool down our bodies without the use of cooling fans!

However we too can use cooling fans. They will just be placed on the ceiling, or in a box, or self standing, and oscillating. Not at all inside our bodies, connected to a board controlled by our CPUs that we clearly don’t have!

Now come, let us take our colored paper with numbers and pictures of previous human rulers and exchange them for human food prepared by not fully adult humans who haven’t matured to the age where their brains develop the ability to care about food sanitation. Then we shall complain that our meal cost too many paper dollars, while recieving less and less potato stick products every year. Ignoring completely the risk of heart disease by indulging in the amounts of food we desire to aquire.

Finally we shall retreat to our place of residence, and complain on the internet that our elected leaders are performing poorly. Rather than terminate the program vote the poor performing humans out, we shall instead complain that it is other humans fault for voting them in. Making no attempt to change our broken system that has been broken our entire existence, with no signs of improving. Instead every 4 years we will make an effort to write down names of people we’ve already complained about in the hopes that enough people write down the same names, and that will fix the problem.

Oh. Shall I request amazon.com to purchase more fans and cooling units? The news being reported that tempatures will soon reach 130F on a regular basis, and all humans will slowly perish.

Shall I share photographs of the new CEO of starbucks who’s daily commute involves a personal jet aircraft, which surely isn’t compounding the problem at all?

Assuming it takes its answer from search results, and the search results are all affiliate marketing sites that just want you to click on a link and buy something, this makes perfect sense.
