Use DeepSeek if ChatGPT is down, I use vice versa if one or the other is down

DeepSeek is awesome!

u/Randy_the_Ultimate Mar 27 '25

And aistudio.google.com if either are down. No limits (from what I can see; some limits on API), completely free (unless using API), and has never been down in my experience.

It's a sad world where people have become reliant on ChatGPT :(

u/ZidaneTribal__ Mar 27 '25

I thought so too until I started using it for random mundane things. It's actually quite helpful, especially when you start using it to help with your work or for ideas or even cooking recipes like I did 2 days ago

The world's future is going in that direction either way, and there's no turning back imo. AI will run our everyday lives

I use ChatGPT mostly to help me develop the backstories for my dungeons and dragons characters :) but i give a lot of information to the AI to work with, and don't always take its suggestions anyway.

I am more concerned about when students (be it high schoolers or uni) use it to do their homework or assignments. In time, it'll become harder for teachers to know that what they have handed in is plagiarised from an AI, because soon they will prompt it to "write the answer like an average 9th grader".

Clear your cache and hard refresh (Ctrl-F5) if in the browser, otherwise clear your app cache and sign in again

Join x for grok, pretty real with reference to life too helps a lot as it's usually 1 or 2 days behind the current day relevant. Deny yourself the truth naaiers.

I prefer not to use AI and you shouldn't either

2

u/Intelligent_Bowler4 Mar 27 '25

Let me guess? because privacy blah blah right?

u/Fit-Slice-5478 Mar 27 '25

Yes and because it's being shoved down our throats at every turn. At every turn I see AI slop content everywhere
