Original survey link: https://forms.gle/7Bu3Tyi5fufmY8Vc8

Thanks for all the answers, here are the results for the survey in case you were wondering how you did!

Edit: People working in CS or a related field have a 9.59 avg score while the people that aren’t have a 9.61 avg.

People that have used AI image generators before got a 9.70 avg, while people that haven’t have a 9.39 avg score.

Edit 2: The data has slightly changed! Over 1,000 people have submitted results since posting this image, check the dataset to see live results. Be aware that many people saw the image and comments before submitting, so they've gotten spoiled on some results, which may be leading to a higher average recently: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MkuZG2MiGj-77PGkuCAM3Btb1_Lb4TFEx8tTZKiOoYI

Huh, I felt the 12/20 was a bit low but I guess not so much. As someone that has never used an image generator (or an LLM for that matter, chatGPT not even once baby) nor has actually worked at tech (though I have been learning programming on my own) and doesn't even know how to draw... I guess I didn't do too bad.

8/20 and I use it everyday. I got all humans correct, but the landscape and stylistic images is what I got wrong. Ai is getting good.

AI just has a niche. Certain things, like highly stylized images, it's great at because they're generic, and genetic/common is what AI does best.

Are you proud you haven't used chatgpt or LLMs or something? They're incredibly powerful tools, you will fall behind your peers if you don't learn to use them when appropriate.

Not proud nor ashamed, and you seem to imply LLMs are needed in all human fields

[–] canni@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

What part of my comment implied "all human fields"? I literally said where appropriate. Teaching yourself to program is an appropriate time to use them.

You're not cool because you're different, you just being dumb.
