Get out or what? GitHub?
I don’t understand this insistence that all developers must use AI.
If AI made a developer better, why insist, wouldn’t the vibe coders outcompete all others?
Wouldn’t they need non AI coders to train things?
Or is it because this snake oil pitch only works when everyone does it so no one notices it’s detrimental effects?
I wanna see a breakdown of cost vs revenue for each big tech and their AI stuff.
I know it’s all negative, I wanna know who is the most negative. My money is on google.
This is probably why even though phones have gotten faster, they still seem slow.
It’s also hilarious to me how little battery voyager uses compared to most modern apps.
The problem doesn’t concern me as much at how bad we’ve become at maintaining shit that already works.
There is also the fact that during Y2K, we didn’t have as much reliance on computers.
You can extrapolate that to humanity for the last few centuries or even millennias
So are we fully abandoning reason based robots?
Is the future gonna just be things that guess but just keep getting better at guessing?
I’m disappointed in the future.
What’s sad is that the AI hype did inflate stock prices.
Most c suites’ job is to look out for the interests of investors.
Technically they did a good job. I hate capitalism
Idk about engaging productivity.
If your job is just doing a lot of trivial code that just gets used once, yeah I can see it improving productivity.
If your job is more tackling the least trivial challenges and constantly needing to understand the edge cases or uncharted waters of the framework/tool/language, it’s completely useless.
This is why you get a lot of newbies loving AI and a lot of seniors saying it’s counter productive.
Ah so AI does create jobs, it’s the Zorg logic
While I appreciate them talking in good faith, all these articles that warn against misusing technology really sound out of touch from our reality.
It’s capitalism, of course it would be misused cause of our economic incentives.
When it comes to AI, you either don’t like it or are trying to make money from it, no one expects it to actually work so the entire point is moot.
This is the last paragraph of the article:
AI seems to present a spectacular new slate of opportunities and threats. But, in essence, much of what was true before AI remains so now. Human greed and desire for greater control over nature and other people may lead toward paths of short-term gain. But, if you want a good life when all’s said and done, learn to live well within limits. Live with honesty, modesty, and generosity. AI can’t help you with that.
Yeah no shit
I’m guessing they are trying to catch up to AI via brute force?
This is how I know AI doesn’t really work. Give it a real use case in the physical world, it can’t be almost there, either it passes or fails.
People should really appreciate deterministic algorithm cause they could automate things in the real world
Bangs gabble gavel.
Gets sack with dollar sign
“Oh good, my laundry is done”
Im on the fence, although I want it to burst, I also think AI has enough use cases for it not to be a bubble. It’s just that all those use cases are evil, hence why I fear it might not burst.
Only positive change google has made in the last decade
It simply saw a superior technology and decided to attack.
10 assassinations of relatively innocent people simultaneously. Straight out of Walter white’s playbook when he went full villain.
Got paywalled, should have known better given it’s an Instagram link
Funny how they suddenly think IP laws are bad ehh
After years of bullshit, corruption and nepotism, we as a society (or a critical mass of it) accepted that lies and bullshit is a part of life.
I really think that’s what is going on here, we filled our reality with contradictions and things that drive us crazy, now a large percentage of the population are okay listening to inefficient guessing machines.
Seriously, the fact that hallucinations didn’t kill the hype is, imo, a hallmark of being in a post truth era.
This is not the mindset that made computers and the Internet. Feels more like late stage Rome.
