Hi,
You copy pasted the response verbatim as it appeared to you, without
adding your own understanding or verifying the content. If you're hoping
for better reception of information sourced from AI, please treat AI as
a starting point - not as a final answer. That means reading it all,
applying critical thinking, and fact checking before you express the
findings in your own words.
AI can be useful, but it's not infallible because it will not hesitate
to spew absolute malarkey in the hopes that it mires engagement and paid
subscriptions. Here's a little sample of my own conversation where I
demonstrate how you can play the AI like a fiddle. Because Jim gave a
clear warning I can't share it another way than offer a link and warn
that this contains AI content: https://pastebin.com/WLEDmr4G
In summary, I asked ChatGPT to rate a function I wrote in C. It
performed just as I asked, but there's a serious problem. For the
purpose of this test, where the AI was not warned it's being tested, I
planted a bug in the function. The result assignment in the middle of
the for loop contains a broken branchless ternary statement that instead
blends n-1 most significant bits of the value intended if the condition
is true, and the last most significant bit of the value intended if the
condition is false. A datacenter full of graphic cards did not catch
this bug.
I've given your interaction with AI a fair shot at reading, and my only
comment is that those rigs are grossly exaggerated. You can do TLS just
fine on 80486 because the only criterion you need to satisfy is that you
can receive, decrypt, pen a new response, encrypt it, and send it,
faster than the time runs out on HTTP timeout which is a pretty generous
amount of time. The only hurdle for FreeDOS would be limitations of
realmode which is a Russian nesting doll of more problems to solve with
memory and dynamic loading.
Best regards,
Michał

Thank you for chastising me but did you read the "slop" or was this a knee-jerk
response to the word gemini? This issue seemed to be vexing several folks. Ask asked
some pointed questions that I thought might get me some useful information. I thought it
did so I offered it to the community thinking it might benefit somebody. I certainly
could have sesrched the web for 4-5 hours, gathered all this info and composed an
article but I read the output from gemini and thought it was factual, to the point and
therrfor, potentially useful.

I have no idea what kind of hardware you have access to so I asked gemini.
Please do not post bot slop to the list.
If you didn't write it yourself, don't post it.
