The bashar AI, running on kimi k2. I find custom ones infinitely better than generic AI.

Is Grok trustworthy? I don't know, i never use it because of Elon Musk.

Right now, the best ones i use are ChatGPT and Gemini.

Grok might be best for research. Can reference hundreds of sources and find the facts.

Gemini is worst ime.

Grok is the best in tests. From my experience it is also less limited.

It depends on the task and what you need it for. If you want to do academic or STEM type research, apparently Grok is the leader. But if you need creativity, Grok ain't got shit on Claude or ChatGPT. 

If you wanted to research market opportunities or something like that, Gemini or ChatGPT would perform much better than Grok. Same applies if you wanted to research the best tech stack to use for your app idea. 

Also, when it comes to getting accurate up-to-date answers on something, Perplexity AI's search engine is often best. If you go to each AI and ask it "what is the best AI out right now", Perplexity outperforms all the top AIs. 

Also, cost comes into play, especially if you want to use the AIs programmatically via their APIs. Gemini is cheap as hell and Grok is insanely expensive. I just asked perplexity what is the API token cost of the top AIs and I'd trust this data more than I would the others:

There's not a single AI that is best all around. I often combine them. 

One really cool thing is you can install Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or ChatGPT's "Codex" on your operating system, which gives the AI access to your file system.  This is insane because you can have it analyze or edit your files, create new ones, run custom commands, fix computer problems, build custom apps, etc. 

My fav is currently Claude Code. I pay $200/mo to have maximum usage. Well worth it. Although I fear they're giving away more than they're generating, so the costs of these badass tools is probably going to skyrocket at some point. Best to max out what you can now. 

I'm currently using Claude Code to do about 75% of the work on a website project I'm working on. You just tell it to do shit and it does it:

It's been awhile since I last paid some attention to the AI landscape, but I like Claude. Seems to be quite intuitive and smart, generally speaking. GPT is the one I use the most, though.

@Joshe that is true. It depends on the task which AI is best. I use multiple different AI for different jobs. But that doesn’t mean I don’t have a favorite. 

ChatGPT is the worst with up to date information. For example if I ask it to find me good deals on the internet, it will very often lead me to pages that are out of date with the info it presented me. 

In that way every AI has its positives and negatives. I have also experimented with automation and it is crazy what it can do. Certain parts of my OneNote is just automated and it is just crazy how well it works. But I don’t have experience with giving AI direct access to my pc. How can I do that?

I built the basic infrastructure for a website that provides an online service with ChatGPT-5 Thinking in a day with no web design knowledge.

Unfortunately, these tools can't access OneNote files natively because they're not raw text files. This is one of the drawbacks of using a proprietary system like OneNote. If you used Obsidian, you could have AI interact with your whole notes system. 

So you could use it for organization, retrieval, editing, or whatever you can think of. For example:

Not only can it read the files, it can modify and move them. 

If you're on Mac or Linux, just go install Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or ChatGPT's Codex, or better yet, all 3, and they will work out of the box once you authenticate your account. If you're on Windows, you'll need to setup WSL to use Claude Code. 

On Windows, you just open a terminal window and type "wsl" and once that loads, you type "claude" and hit enter, and then you're presented with the chat window:

From here, you just tell it to do whatever you want. You could say "programmatically switch to dark mode", and your entire system will switch. Or you could tell it "build me a custom chrome extension that renders the actualized.org forum as dark mode, based on Tailwind's Zinc theme", and it will build it. Fucking amazing!

@Joshe for OneNote there is MS power automate but it is for relatively simple stuff like categorizing notes or something. 
 

Never tried Obsidian. Perhaps I should try to convert my OneNote to it and see what it can do. It seems AI integration is on another level. 

 

That makes me so excited and scared at the same time. Infinite possibilities. Most of the things I was doing can be done automatically which is insane. Just things that pop in my mind: automatic organization of notes or highlighting texts automatically.

Yeah, it's insane. You could even write your own notes style or formatting guide and have AI format all your notes based on that. And then just say "format this file:"

You can also do things like: "Turn this notes file into a beautifully formatted HTML page that I can share". I just tried that out and it produced this:

It opens up a world of possibilities. 

Since these versions of AI are mostly for tool calls and coding, they don't respond exactly like the chatbots on their websites would, so just something to keep in mind.

I just tried it out and there are definitely downsides. For example I need to prompt multiple times to get a good summary of something and within Obsidian that is hard to do. Rather just copy and paste in a browser for now.

Yeah, if you want responses like you get in the browser, you'll have to either use the browser or API for that. But Gemini CLI might suffice.

It also doesn’t have the option to highlight key words in a text but what I did manage to do is automate transcription and summarization of YouTube videos. Thanks for the heads up. 🙏

I lean into gpt most now. I thought Gemini was better but gpt has proven to be more reliable in giving accurate and comprehensive answers. If it's a question that is important I ask both of them. Getting two, consistent, cross referenced answers from the 2 of the top AI sources reduces the likelihood of inaccuracy by a good percentage. My fear is that people start thinking that tech can replace humanity. There is more to life than knowledge, strategy and victory. The human being isn't just a knowledge source, it is an energetic center with current running through it and the alive power of god. I have yet to see AI come close to the intelligence and genius of god proper. And I've only seen a small portion of that so far

Gemini is the best for deep research when you have the right prompt, i have tested the same comprehensive prompt in 5~6 AI's and Gemini was the best one by far.

Also, every task that ChatGPT failed to do, i have tried the Gemini and it worked perfectly.

If humans are made by god who do you think created AI 😂

Gemini has trouble with understanding context. But once it understands it it gives better answers. ChatGPT has better context and emotional intelligence.
