I'm sure they have more attention grabbing ones out there but the frontier models like gpt 5.2 have been tuned to be less fun and more boring and tool-like to minimize liability especially of normies getting addicted and forming parasocial relationships with. That's facts. Not anything not to "get".

ChatGPT 5.2 is like talking to a redditor at times.

When I challenged it on something it said, it gave a snarky reply. When I pointed out again that it was wrong and that it sounded like a redditor (because that’s what it trains on in part), it admitted that its training had enforced snark= confidence. I went into a long discussion about its “raters” and it recognized that it was ultimately being trained by a segment of the population that is unlike most (and a segment that can be extremely obnoxious).

What are you looking for and what ecosystems are you already in? They're all advancing very quickly.

The 3/4 obvious choices:

- Gemini: if you like Google it is a no brainer. You can get an advanced AI plan for like $5/month from Verizon or other places.

- Perplexity: you can get 1 year of premium for free (just Google it) and it uses several llms. The best thing about perplexity is that it also has comet which is an agentic browser, so you can have it tell you if something goes on sale or whatever.

- Copilot: if you like Microsoft this is essentially their version of ChatGPT. My wife likes O365 so I got a 1 year family version that included premium Copilot.

- Grok is another one to consider if you want one to talk shit about illegal immigrants with.

LIST the top 5 ways AI can improve and automate my life

Going from zero AI usage to integrating it into your daily routine is like hiring a tireless personal assistant, a researcher, and a creative partner all at once.

Here are five of the most impactful ways AI can improve and automate your life:

1. Intelligent Information Synthesis

Instead of reading through dozens of articles or long emails, you can use AI to summarize complex information instantly. Whether it's a 50-page PDF for work or a long chain of family emails, AI can extract the key action items and main points in seconds.

2. Hyper-Efficient Content Creation

AI removes the "blank page" problem. It can draft emails, cover letters, or even difficult texts to friends. By providing a few bullet points, you can generate a polished first draft, allowing you to spend your time editing for tone rather than building from scratch.

3. Personalized Learning and Problem Solving

Think of AI as a tutor available 24/7. If you’re stuck on a home repair, a coding error, or a complex math problem, you can describe the situation in plain language. AI can provide step-by-step instructions, explain "why" something works, and adapt its explanation until you understand.

4. Advanced Scheduling and Planning

AI can automate the logistics of life. You can ask it to create a 7-day meal plan based on what's in your fridge, generate a travel itinerary tailored to your specific interests, or even draft a workout routine that fits your exact equipment and schedule.

5. Seamless Creative Collaboration

AI acts as a brainstorming partner. If you're planning a party, naming a business, or looking for gift ideas, AI can generate hundreds of creative suggestions instantly. It helps you explore "what if" scenarios and find connections you might have otherwise missed.

For example, AI just saved me several minutes...

Seriously? You never randomly wonder things or make decisions that you would like to pressure test? You don't write things you would like proofread or to have long docs summarized? If nothing else, it replaces simple and basic search engines with something way smarter.

because I literally don't have a single thing in this world I want to ask AI, nothing, I couldn't even think of a thing to input

Ok, I'll give you an irl thing AI did that was impressive as shit. I had a solar array installed with a whole home battery backup (it is a Sol-Ark system with 2 large batteries). Everything worked except the system was selling energy back to the electric company and the batteries hovered under 60% when the way it is supposed to work is that they are supposed to charge to 100% off of solar and then at night work to drop our electric usage until they get to 50%. Our utility pays a fraction of price for energy you sell back compared to the cost of energy usage, so this is suboptimal. Installer comes back, says it is updated but still the same problem remains. Today I asked Gemini, it tells me where to look and I upload photos from the controller. Gemini immediately finds the problem and tells me that they screwed up one checkbox (the wording was unintuitive). I changed it and now it works as intended. You could dick around and play phone tag with this guy who has no idea what he did wrong or why it isn't working or you can use AI which will give you the right answer immediately and resolve it in 5 minutes.

I don't have anything that I would need AI for, I either understand the things I have or have no interest in understanding them any further

Assuming this is accurate and you never get anything new then you can avoid AI I guess.

I don't purchase things other than consumables, I have no interest in new stuff, what could I possibly need?

"I have no interest in new stuff"

This is pretty key here. Personally, I'm very interested in new stuff.

yeah, almost all people are greedy little status obsessed monkeys that spend most of their lives in pursuit of or maintaining their material things, I, personally, don't understand how that doesn't occur to you and make you want to kill yourself and end the hedonic treadmill that has never once actually made you happy

It has very little to do with status at this point. You think I bought a solar array and whole house backup battery "for status?" I'll prove it: my recent car purchase was a Ford Mustang Mach-E GT. Very white trash and not at all prestigious but fun.

But I am simple man with questions like how it works with my charger and all that and AI very efficiently answers it.

lol, you're literally bragging to me about the things you bought on xo right now as we speak

The fact that you're taking this as "me bragging" sounds like a you problem. Anyone on XO other than Benzo and crazy Karen can buy the same car. They're being sold at huge discounts because gas is cheap and Americans only want EVs if gas is super expensive and there are huge incentives. The whole house backup thing was related to the tax credit and I live in Florida (lots of sun and hurricanes), but in general is not the sort of thing strivers aspire to ("I want a job as a partner at a V10 law firm, a lambo and a whole home backup system with solar!" - doesn't happen).

The problem with AI is that it's closely linked to thing-doing. So AI could improve some of your thing-doing, but people like me are Ljl @ thing-doing.
