    Because AI is obviously better at solving math than the code programmers wrote. Duh. /S

      In all seriousness, if you show Bing Chat an equation, it will go through the steps and solve it clearly, it’s actually really helpful. I really don’t understand all this hate for AI just because it’s AI. New technology is cool and useful, and I’d understand hating it because it’s made by Microsoft, I try to use free software including free AI, but AI in itself is not bad or useless.

        Nah I don’t hate AI but an AI cannot do math faster than the hardware designed to do it. It’s like saying an emulator is faster than the bare hardware. The AI would have to find a revolutionary new way of solving the equation to make it faster than the hardware.

          Of course, they’re different types of things. You give hard equations with lots of x and y to a chatbot, or ask it about a method you don’t understand, so it can explain it to you.
