I asked grok About a simple cam thats at least as good as the cams of iPhone 15 pro and/or the latest Google pixel Models.

I just want quick unprofessional photos that still Look nice and Detailed.

He recommended to to me the following Models and I Need yalls opinion:

  • Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III
  • Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II
  • Panasonic Lumix ZS200 (TZ200)

To be honest I wanted something below 500€ but I guess I have to reach deeper into my pockets for something nice. Do yall think its worth paying quite a bit more? Or would yall Not pay much more for a nice compact cam?

If you have other recommendations please do throw them into Discussion!

Edit: sheesh i forgot this is lemmy with all the anti ai stuff. In any case I understand the hate but can we please just focus on the matter at Hand?

    Can you focus on the question instead of riding the anti ai dogma? I understand the concerns about ai but I just used it how its supposed to be used: as a Tool

    To answer your question: from the way grok seems to work I just thought its better suited than gpt for research purposes

      it isn’t “anti ai dogma”, this is not what these tools are good at
      they are predictive text machines, they use a statistical model to decide what words go next to each other
      they are good for writing blocks of text and some coding tasks, they are not a database of information

      to answer the camera question, for your use case a smartphone would be fine

        Yea but even though admittedly im no expert, from my understanding grok was created to work with existing Information in mind (e.g. Reasoning about context with existing studies; sorry for insta link). So I decided its worth a try to see what data it can scrape together and whether it can give me good and reasonable cams.

        I know what you mean with predictive Text and im Aware ai is Not perfect but I do think depending on what you ask some AIs that the answers can definitely be reasonable and useful. I do take answers with a pinch of salt.

        Thanks for the answer but I specifically ask for cams for digital detox and a specialized tool for a better experience and more battery life as a plus.
