I'm really at stump here, I want to use AI to make my life easier with work but how do I if I can't trust its answers 100% of the time? I mean I understand it needs human intervention but if I don't know the answer itself, it involves me stopping at the exact time I need to, searching for the correct answer elsewhere entirely and or just giving up on it, its quite exhausting.

The process for me is usually I go down a path with an LLM; I get excited at the prospect of using it as a tool. In the middle i spot an error. Question it, the LLM responds with a contradiction in the same conversation. I realise it means the last 5 minutes of dialogue was all incorrect, and I get frustrated that it wasted my time. I mean they're selling it as intelligent but where is the intelligence, to me its more akin to a search engine where instead of showing me a full article, it returns the excerpt of text instead. Useful.. maybe?

I know people use this in their work daily so I'm just curious how do they do it? Do they ignore the blaring errors like they aren't there? I know this sounds sarcastic but I really want to know because especially in my own projects, I find it hard to move on from not 'perfection' per say, but anything other than bad.

Thank you in advance and looking forward to other opinions also

Feeling lost at the moment, and don't feel like repeating myself to an LLM for advice again so I thought I would maybe ask here.

So I'm in my early 30's, I've built the career and got all the high position roles one strives for in our profession, travelled everywhere, lived and worked overseas and done everything I've wanted to except starting my own business.

2020 came which I feel wiped me out (mentally and economically). I've just now I would say recovered a bit, set myself up with a year worth of living expenses and moved abroad.

This should be the time where someone should go head on and try make some money on their own but instead I'm just tired. I feel like when I was younger all that effort came so easy, I was curious, I wanted things. Now I'm so lost, anxious and filled with doubt thanks to global events and AI.

I went on a shroom trip last week that taught me that I am capable, but the after effects wore off and I'm back to being me. I feel like a 20 year old. How do I not waste my time/savings and what do I focus on? Is it making the project that is fun to build my confidence? Or making money? It's only day 5 since I've moved and I'm already thinking about going back lol

Was anyone in a similar spot? What helped you?
