The issue has been resolved successfully.
Cause: Hardware conflict during installation caused the crash, likely with the GPU.
Solution: Adding `nomodeset` during installation will get it done in a flash.
In this day and age, there's nothing we can't learn about with the help of AI.
Even though I encountered an error and sent a question to the AI, it led me astray:
- The first time it blamed a faulty installation file.
- The second time, they blamed it on a faulty USB flash drive.
- The third time, they blamed it on a faulty SSD in the computer.
It wasn't until the fourth attempt, after it detected the error right at the BIOS step, that it considered the installation process to be faulty due to hardware conflicts.
Three years ago, when encountering a bug, I would only be able to go to Google, describe the problem, and read all four possible solutions from user articles. If I was lucky, I would read about bug number 4 first, allowing me to resolve the issue with fewer attempts. However, the time spent searching, reading, understanding, and choosing a solution could have taken one or two hours.
But with AI, the answers are readily available, and I also grasp the issue faster because I can ask it more detailed questions instead of reading bits and pieces from different sources.
Lesson:
I should have asked them from the start, "What problems could have caused my situation? Please list them so I can consider where I might have gone wrong."
Normally, when I encounter an error and search on Google, I usually XEM at multiple possibilities instead of immediately trying the method I'm using.
AI has both made me lazy in thinking and led me to success. It's very dangerous.
This double-edged knife can get you seriously injured if you're not careful, guys.
