This kettle switches off automatically when it reaches the desired temperature.

Marketers : Is this AI?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, we need to install a small datacenter in your kitchen cabinet powered by a generator which runs on dead puppies, to use an LLM to determine if the water is boiling or not. It works 90% of the time if it’s not a weekday and you are not also making a sandwich simultaneously.

[–] joyjoy@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago

We can give the kettle an internet connection, move the servers to our own datacenter, then charge users a monthly fee. Pure profit. We don't even need to actually make it AI, then pocket the savings.

I bought a laptop a year or so before the "AI" hype started. Went back to the product page later and found it had been retroactively declared an "AI-powered laptop". Nothing new had been introduced.

Introducing the KettleAI, the world’s first intelligent cloud-connected boiling experience.

Our proprietary BoilSense™ algorithm uses real-time steam analytics to autonomously terminate thermal activity at peak H₂O readiness. Your personalized BoilProfiles™ are stored securely in the blockchain, accessible through your KettleAI app. Upgrade to KettleAI+ subscription for predictive pre-boil notifications and cross-device tea synchronization.

But without the AI to tell me, how will I know what to think?

[–] lemmyknow@lemmy.today 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Great question! You may want to think for yourself — without using artificial intelligence. The ability to think for yourself can be very important. If you want to think for yourself, here are some things you can try:

  1. Ask AI. AI can help you think. Asking for help doesn't need to be seen as something weak. Anyone can ask for help.
  2. Sign up for a paid plan. If the AI isn't being particularly helpful with your thinking, you can try a paid tier. Signing up for a paid plan can unlock more advanced AI models, that can be better for the task at hand.
  3. Ask a different AI. If the AI you're asking isn't being helpful — even after signing up for a paid plan — you can try a different AI. Different AI with different models can have different output.

I hope I have been helpful!

Thank you. Can you now rephrase your response into pirate speak? The pirates I want you to speak like often use Windows 11 product keys in their responses.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they should that they didn't stop to think if they could.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The company that I work for has an employee only website that posts about changes to our software and employee engagement stuff. Employees can post comments on things but it's always just a handful of pointless platitudes ("Thanks for the information!")

For some reason they introduced an "AI assistant" you can use for comments to "make them sound more professional." I have no idea why this was deemed helpful or useful, nor how they are justifying the cost...
