      A solid part of them work well, it has to be admitted. And some are entertainingly bad…

        I have a feeling they’ve been training the models on this site more. Some of the OGs for the same models were absolutely dogshit 6 months ago.

        the problem with AI is not whether it works well, it’s whether it’s reliable. imagine this was your alarm clock to wake you up in the morning. 30 days in a row it works well, then suddenly it wakes you up at 4 am for no apparent reason. and some days it just doesn’t wake you up at all.

          This is why I’ve given up on Google maps. It used to be right like all the time, now it seems to randomly give me completely wrong results. Like if I search for asain food it gives me endless results of the same fucking restaurant… I have worked in technology a long time and developed a nice callous when it doesn’t work, I’m used to it and I just laugh it off…, but with AI it doesn’t work all the time. It gives me serious anxiety and anger issues.

          True, but that would be resolved by checking the output, picking the one result that works reliably, and sticking with it.

          So for clock software this should be good enough (ok, not really, since the clock should know the location of the user and adapt according to the timezone and daylight saving switches, etc., I doubt AI can nail that down as easily).

          On the other hand, there’s been many stories of frustrated AI users who complained that changes to the models broke their workflow. I haven’t heard such stories in a while, however, perhaps they’re kept more stable these days?

          Yeah, that’s the problem with something non-deterministic. Works for some things, but a lot of things it doesn’t.

          Oh so an AI clock is much like my cat alarm system. Sometimes I am awoken at 10 am and other times Barca wakes me up at 2am because he decided that my foot is infact a member of the Roman legions.

        What the other one said. Keep the page open for a minute, and a new set of clocks from the same models appear. Sometimes, a perfectly good clock will be replaced by nonsense.

        For most of them, if you see them generate correctly it’s solely by chance, after letting them generate like 8 different iterations, only Fable 5 and Qwen 3.5 are the ones that has not generate a broken clock yet for me. And both of those still have generated ugly clocks at least once (the numbers/markers are too close/far)

        Also, this is such a gem:
