This morning was an AI morning. First of all I ran across a question on the NextDoor email about ISD property taxes. It made me look and I didn't like what I was seeing. Finally I went into Google and ended up having a discussion with Gemini that was quicker, WAY cheaper, and easier than talking to a lawyer or calling the county tax authority. And I received and verified my answer. So nice.
Then I was making a few bucks on my Prolific account and picked up a survey basically wanting me to do a chat with both Copilot and ChatGPT. Same chat. Compare results. The topic was dealing with medical systems specifically over this Plavix thing.
First of all, the CoPilot voice for me was a Brit. So obviously he knew what he was talking about. I was posing a very complex problem and got a bunch of feedback the end of which was "OK, let's take the first step." It was really solid and I'll likely pick up the conversation as it is one that will actually take a few days.
Then ChatGPT which basically told me how sorry it was I was going through this and how it understood how stressed I was and could it help. Never offered any specific items, never a plan, no 'first step'. Just virtual smoke going up my virtual skirt. And it was an American. Not at all trustworthy.
Such a huge difference between the two I can hardly describe but I won't use ChateGPT again and likely will use CoPilot. This is the second really good interaction I've had with CoPilot, BTW. The first was a few weeks ago and gave me a step by step plan to work on bettering my flexible stock holdings. At that time it was compared to Gemini and came out way better.
And I've never even looked at Claude or Perplexity and used Rufus once on Amazon but can't remember why or whether it even helped.
In general I love doing research using AI. So much potential. And, yeah, it is going to destroy humanity but it says I'm going to die at 89 years old anyway and I don't think it will take over before then.
