Good at some things, mainly extracting information from large datasets and performing iterative tasks.

Sucks at tasks involving complex reasoning. I've posted before about using Google Images to search for information about auction items. The AI-generated text explaining what the picture shows frequently makes major errors, including era and function of an item. Now I just see whether there are visual matches.

Also, most of the time when I use an AI chatbot to ask a question when I'm visiting a website, the answer is useless. I then conclude the chat by entering "f___ AI." That's the only satisfaction I usually get.
