TBH I'm not so irritated by this. It keeps me grounded, and saves me from being unconsciously outsourcing all the hard work of thought process to AI.
Stack Overflow is dying, it's extremely difficult to get new questions through. Even if they survive moderation then they're unlikely to get answers.
I've also had it suggest solutions e.g. "This C++/OpenGL code doesn't run in wayland can you suggest some solutions".
Other stuff like generating tests is hit and miss.
Another commenter lives in a different world than you.
It randomly fails halfway through a response, sometimes very slow to start, hangs for long periods during a response, and so on.
The Claude chat interface can also slow down with long sessions. I sometimes use Claude code which is better, but I'm not a huge fan of terminal interfaces. I'm aware of third party frontends, but I believe those require api access which I don't like for personal use.
It's just Google own UIs and apps are almost comically bad.
On a side note, I'm anthropomorphising too much, gonna have to upgrade and get some top rate therapy...
I love it when they take an offense.

ollama run smollm2:135m-instruct-q2_K --verboseFor that purpose? It lets me do things I never would have even tried.
(There's actually a nuanced conversation to be had on this - but from your tone, I'm not sure that's what you intended)
LLMs neither have the mechanical reliability we expect from computers (does it the same way every time) nor the flexible reliability we expect from biological intelligences (solves or works around the unexpected sub-problems as they arise).
I find the debate about LLMs rather exhausting. I find them useful and almost every day someone on social media tells me I'm mistaken, lying or merely deluded .
Plenty on Reddit saying they did. And I did.
Could the outage be a the result of an "unexpected" surge in account activations / use?
Not much of a "welcome back" ;-)

At least their customer service is nice. They forwarded my messages to the dev team and they implemented a lot of things I have suggested.
