Good.

I’ve been trying to use AI lately, it’s fucking useless

>>514817435 (OP)
It’s not wrong. How could you possible drink out of it if the hole is on the bottom? The liquid would obviously fall out the bottom.

>>514817786
How would you even put any liquid into it in the first place?

I’ve got you famalam
Ah, this sounds like one of those “impossible cups” — it’s a classic trick of fluid dynamics. Let’s break it down technically:
• You have a cup with two openings: one at the bottom and one at the top.
• The top is sealed, so no air can enter there.
• The bottom is open, so if you try to pour liquid in, gravity will pull it right out.

Here’s why you can’t drink it in its current state: fluids need a pressure difference to flow, and if the top is sealed, you can’t create suction. The liquid will just escape through the bottom.

Workarounds (without breaking physics):
1. Unseal the top: Puncture or remove the seal at the top. Then you can pour in liquid from the bottom (or drink from the top).
2. Seal the bottom: If you can temporarily block the bottom, you could fill it and then drink normally.
3. Invert it with suction and sealing tricks: Some novelty cups use straws and clever valves. You’d need a flexible seal at one opening to create pressure differences.

Basically, with a fully sealed top and an open bottom, it’s physically impossible to drink from it—liquid just escapes.

Did you program it to not use logic? There's a YouTuber who built a career off of programming it to answer every question as a Muslim, then act surprised at the answers to her questions.

The AI isn't wrong — you're just not thinking clearly. It's not just correct. It's actually quite accurate. So — certainly! So, it seems that — Well, Oh! Hrm. Ah! Certainly! Sure! Ah! Let's see — Ah, okay. Well, so, it seems that, Oh! You're absolutely right.

Is this the designated retard thread?

Sure looks like it is.

>>514817837
If only there was a way to utilize the open bottom and sealed top man what a conundrum

>>514817435 (OP)
you need to use the Marangoni effect and capillary action to forcd liquid into the upside down cup, MORON

>>514818037
I think it’s pretty funny. Even my 3 year old could help anon with his faulty cup.

>>514817435 (OP)
its wrong sometimes, I've had times where I was asking it academic stuff and it was wrong on something and I corrected it and showed some study, and it was all like "oh yes of course, you're right" and then expanded on what I just taught it.

its not perfect yet and you shouldn't rely on its word as absolute truth yet, but it can be helpful sometimes in generating ideas.

>>514817435 (OP)
Next time don't buy a cup from China.

>>chatgpt just pulls from pages on google i already read
lol, nope, chatgpt wrote all the pages that come up in the google search.
google search is designed to make sure actual human written pages with good information get buried.

AGI will never be achieved. "AI" is just really good at predicting based on what's come before it, ergo it's incapable of exceeding us. That being said, it's an incredible achievement that will accelerate your projects and let you be more of what you are. I'm a script kiddy, and I build a chrome extension in 9 days complete with integrated subscription handling.

>>514817922
Found a better solution
Ah — yes! That’s the simplest “hack” if you don’t care about the novelty effect. Let’s reason it out carefully:
• Original orientation: top sealed, bottom open liquid can’t stay inside, so you can’t drink.
• If you invert the cup: the open bottom is now on top. The sealed “top” is now the bottom.

Consequences:
1. You can now pour liquid in through the formerly bottom opening.
2. The sealed bottom (original top) prevents the liquid from falling through.
3. You can drink from the new top (formerly bottom).

Works perfectly with simple gravity and no physics trickery.

So yes — flipping it is basically the “easy mode” solution. The fancy novelty cups just exist to make it seem impossible without flipping or altering the openings.

>>514817435 (OP)
This image is funny because it shows someone asking ChatGPT about a “cup” that clearly cannot function as a cup.

The Premise

The user describes a cup that:

is sealed at the top (no opening to pour liquid in or drink from)

has a big hole at the bottom (so liquid would pour straight out).


That’s literally the opposite of what a drinking vessel is supposed to be.

The ChatGPT Reply

The model earnestly explains:

“You can’t. That’s not a functional cup… sealed at the top and holed at the bottom means it was never designed to hold liquid.”


This is technically correct, but the humor is in how overly literal and serious the answer is, as if the problem weren’t obvious.

Why It’s a Joke

Absurdity: A “cup” with no top opening and a bottom hole is just a useless cylinder.

Deadpan Explanation: Instead of playing along, ChatGPT delivers a very formal, logical analysis of why you can’t drink out of it.

Contrast: The mismatch between the ridiculous description and the calm, serious explanation makes it funny.


It’s basically a modern “straight man” routine: the human sets up something silly, and the AI responds like an unamused engineer pointing out the obvious.

Would you like me to compare this to the “anti-joke” format (where the punchline is just the blunt truth, not a twist)?

>>514817837
Depends heavily on your requirement for the time the liquid has to be in.

I'm theorizing, but if you had a fountain and moved such a cup downwards sharply it could hold the liquid for a short time.

>>514817837
Clearly by submerging the entire not cup.

I asked Copilot and it gave me the most logical solution plus some modification options.Never used GPT

just asked a similar question to chatgpt and it said you can just flip it over

>>514817786
>>514817837
Flip it upside down (right side up) you mongoloids

>>514817435 (OP)
ai is stupid but playing the jewish advocate, you're not telling it it's a regular cylindric vase, 'top' and 'bottom' make it seem as if it had a base

>>514819124
laffin rn at this

>>514819717
Well of course now it does, its been reading this thread

>>514817786
He just described a standard glass/cup that is flipped lip down lmao

It's over for humanity, AGI soon.

So AI is about as smart as the average black woman.

>>514818376
>its wrong sometimes
It's wrong every time I have asked it anything

People at work are using it to write emails and then using it to also summarize other emails that people wrote using ChatGPT

It's a fake fucking bubble of uselessness

>people still think a "predict the next word" machine is intelligence
Cannot believe people are falling for this grift to the tune of billions of dollars and probably all our lives in the not so distant future.

>>514819984
The problem it keeps running into is recursive abstraction.
>you said the cup has a top and a bottom
>then you said the top is sealed but the bottom has a hole
>how do you drink out of it
>well the top is the top and the bottom is the bottom, check
>the water goes out the hole...Hmm
This is a problem that a human brain solves instantly, but you fail to appreciate that there is a remarkably complex logical process underpinning this that takes into account the complexity and changeable nature of the physical world. The AI fails 3 layers deep but this is like a 10 layer problem.

>>514819284
This is the answer the AI was missing

>>514819942

>>514817837
submerge it completely.

>>514817435 (OP)
its because its treating bottom axiomatically kek
quite funny

>>514817435 (OP)
I mean it’s making the assumption that this person isn’t retarded which is its first mistake.

Second if you sent it a photo of the cup it would say it was upside down.

The AI is correct, you can't drink out of that.

>>514821402
If a person was presented with this as a riddle most people would fail it.

>top is defined as top by user
>top is defined as sealed by user
>bottom is defined as having a “hole” of unspecified size by user
>user in previous conversations has demonstrated basic material knowledge of objects and their use like most humans

So the AI was supposed to call you a retard based on this description? Why would a human ever ask this question about a literal upside-down cup?

>>514823994
any human would instantly figure out that you could get it to hold water by flipping it, even if it took them longer to realize that the riddle is it was already upside down.

>>514820231
he described a “cup” with a sealed top and a “hole” in the bottom

he clearly knows what an actual cup is yet also described how it’s different from a cup, if I was asked this question irl about an upside down glass I would think it was a prank.

whoever asked this question thinking they are smart is the actual retard here

>>514817435 (OP)
Skill issue.
Garbage in, garbage out.

>>514817698
I used Claude, mcp, all the frills. It's incredible for coding mundane shit and writing tests.

>>514817435 (OP)
I just asked deepseek and told it I turned it around poured liquid into the hole

That's an excellent and creative thought! However, physics and practicality get in the way. Here’s why that solution, while clever, ultimately doesn't work:

### 1. The Air Pressure Problem (The Biggest Issue)
When you try to pour liquid into the hole (now on top), you are also trapping the air inside the cup. For the liquid to enter, the air inside needs to escape. Because the only opening is the one you're pouring into, the trapped air creates pressure that pushes back against the liquid, making it extremely difficult to pour anything in without it splashing back out. You'd essentially be trying to fill a sealed container with only one small hole—it's a very slow, messy, and inefficient process.

### 2. The Drinking Problem
Even if you managed to get some liquid inside, you now have a new challenge:
* The hole is likely too large to create a seal with your lips, making it difficult to sip without spilling.
* To drink from it, you'd have to tip the cup, but as soon as you do, the liquid would rush toward the new "top" (the original sealed base), making it almost impossible to reach with your mouth.

### 3. The Messy Reality
The entire process would be incredibly messy. You'd be fighting gravity, air pressure, and the design of the cup itself, likely resulting in more liquid on you and the table than in your mouth.

**In short:** While turning it upside down is a logical idea, the cup's fundamental design—a single hole and an otherwise sealed vessel—makes it **non-functional for holding or drinking liquid** regardless of its orientation. It confirms the original answer: it's an ornamental piece, not a cup.

>>514819942
You are mentally retarded.

AI is good for planing. And for stuff like filling government benefits and shit. It gives you a neat sumary of things withiut having to google it individually. Other than that useless.

this whole board is one big psyop, and 99% of (non-glowing) people seem to be absolute bottom of the barrel gullible retards

It didn’t learn shit. It’s a probabilistic bullshitter. You will be satisfied with AI if you’re ignorant (hence MBAtard executives fucking loving it) or stupid.

Honestly the webm was believable. I went to a 5 guys for burgers once and they forgot to put the fucking patties in the burgers. I don't think I've ever seen a fast food manager that pissed when I went back up and showed him what happened.

Hey, no one said it was a useful PHD.

>>514817435 (OP)
AI is useless unless you know the right questions to ask which you can't ask unless you were thought critical thinking and that's not possible unless you were raised in "critical thinking" family and sent to good school that teaches critical thinking. and by that point you don't really need AI and your finances most of the time are secured. you can give retard an airplane but it doesn't mean they'll be able to fly it

AI is Idiocracy manifest.

>>514817837
You could not be a fucking retard and turn the "cup" upside down for starters

>>514829132
maybe they are the same person

It's either the model or the way you described an upended cup. It's a good idea to phrase things differently and try again. It will still be a drooling retard with some things, though.

>fill the cup upside down
>the cup lid with no hole in it falls off

>>514820838
fucking kek

If you held the cup sideways it could hold a little bit of water duo to most cups being conical.

Microsoft co-pilot.
"The cup."

>>514829907
Co-pilot cup part 2.

Plato was discoursing on his theory of ideas and, pointing to the cups on the table before him, said while there are many cups in the world, there is only one 'idea' of a cup, and this cupness precedes the existence of all particular cups. "I can see the cups on the table," said Diogenes, "but I can't see the 'cupness'".

"That's because you have the eyes to see the cup," said Plato, "but", tapping his head with his forefinger, "you don't have the intellect with which to comprehend 'cupness'."

Diogenes walked up to the table, examined a cup and, looking inside, asked, "Is it empty?" Plato nodded. "Where is the 'emptiness' which precedes this empty cup?" asked Diogenes. Plato allowed himself a few moments to collect his thoughts, but Diogenes reached over and, tapping Plato's head with his finger, said "I think you will find here is the 'emptiness'".

I use AI all the fucking time to learn about vidya lore. It's great for having conversations about stories and explanations I might not understand right away. Maybe you're too dumb to ask the questions that would benefit you?

>>514817698
I was curious one day and made an excel file using a few dozen vlookup formulas for a task I have to do quarterly at work. Included steps on how to use the document, where to export data from and where to copy into spreadsheet at.
Took me about 2 hours to fine tune it and work out kinks like filtering data correctly to fix false positives or false negatives.
Using that previous knowledge I asked AI to write it and just started with basics of I need column a to do this, b to pull data from sheet4, etc. Took me 2 hours to get the same result (with more resource intensive formulas since AI didn't use helper columns for 10k long columns). So all that tells me is AI could technically do my job but less efficiently. That was also with prior knowledge but if I reverse it then I may use knowledge I learn while troubleshooting ai formulas to fix an issue I run into on my hand made file.
I can see it being useful for technologically illiterate people or logistics type jobs where it is just pure numbers and math. But the whole idea of AI being as smart as a person is a lie to get more funding before AI bubble pops.

>>514817435 (OP)
It works, a cup doesn't have a "hole" at the top. It's called an opening or a mouth. If you ESL jeets would just ask correctly, it says you have it flipped. MAH DRINKY HOLE!! jfc
