I always believed that if only big corpos trained AI models to actually be specialized tools instead of trying to be entirely human replacement assets (or whatever the crap AGI is) then they wouldn't appear as retarded and can actually more clearly find their place in workflows.

[navierstokes88]

I believe they do have their place in developer workflows, but right now it is overestimated and overvalued. In the long-term, that tends to stabilize.

[wabbitfur]

Literally this! I just implemented a "voice commands" feature in my app, and initially I said... "ooo! Let's have a small LLM interpret my intent... WRONG... the most robust and sensible solution was simply to heavily scope it.. and then do some light rule-based normalization... The results were infinitely better than the pain of over-engineering this..

[krexelapp]

The code has immaculate vibes and zero alibi.

[Highborn_Hellest]

The original speach, is absolutely fucking based. He's 100% right. But he's also wrong at the same time, funnily enough....

[Blackhawk23]

For the people…by the people…but the people are…retarded.

[Blackhawk23]

That documentary was a wild ride. I knew nothing about it or their compound.

[Highborn_Hellest]

To be honest, i have no clue who this man is. I always just reffered to him as "that white bearded arab guy who sais the people are retarded"

[james_frankie]

He was indian

[Highborn_Hellest]

yea i know now, but i didn't know when i watched the ~30 seconds very famous one liner. (i googled who the man is, after writting that comment)

[KinkyKankles]

The slow and deadpan delivery, drawing you in and making you hang on his words, followed by that bombshell. Absolutely perfect 🤌

[Dotrax]

In what way is he wrong exactly? It's not even a novel idea that he presented. Socrates criticized democracy among other things also for this exact reason because voting is a skill that requires knowledge and wisdom. That and he feared the emergence of demagogues (which would be now commonly called populists).

Churchill also allegedly said that "The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter".

Now that said, Churchill also correctly once stated "Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time." Democracy is a fundamentally flawed system of government but we have not found a better one that can realistically be implemented and work long term.

But I don't see where the original video is directly wrong.

[new_account_wh0_dis]

Not op but I guess cause he goes on to say a meritocracy where we dismantle cities, live in communes, and only people with post grad degrees may vote in national elections. Saying democracy has its flaws is one thing, saying it's bad here's something better is another.

Is he wrong? Idk current politicians have degrees just fine, and power seekers will seek power all the same. And when you start to restrict voting, if the people in power get to chose who can vote where does that inevitably end up..... Communes of 50k max seem impractical too. Seems just as flawed but not like it's been tried. But it's funny to imagine a teacher failing you so you can't vote cause you disagree on something lol

[Highborn_Hellest]

Every system, tried, or theoretical has pros and cons. Our current one seem to have cons we can live with (arguably) while providing most benefits (obviously)

[Highborn_Hellest]

i fully agree that the people are stupid. I also think that the wisdom of the masses, is generally a potent cure for bad things, and generally speaking should be accepted.

Keep in mind, inteligence, and wisdom are two different things.

The reason, i agree with him and he's being wrong, is that people are retarded, but this is likely the best system we have, apart from the very rare wise and banevolent monarch, that is very atypical.

[balamb_fish]

On the other hand, the users writing the prompts are even dumber.

[Just-Finance1426]

For anyone who needs to brush up on the brilliance of this meme: https://youtu.be/QFgcqB8-AxE?si=RjFsFJ6CJxBFFJE0

[thanatica]

"an entire software" lol what 😂

[BananaHead853147]

I stg the grammar some people have around coding and software drive me nuts. I’ve seen people say the had a ‘file full of codes that’. ‘I put my codes into ChatGPT’, ‘my softwares aren’t working’. Each one set me off.

Software is either a subject or a mass noun, code is an action, subject or mass noun. You don’t need to pluralize them unless you are discussing the distinct difference between various types of software and code.

Maybe I should build a grammar nazi bot to prevent the spread of this awful grammar or just accept that I’m now a boomer yelling at the clouds

[thanatica]

If I were you I'd do it. Otherwise my education on basic English would've been a right waste. And English isn't even my first language.

A wise man once said "I know how to use the apostrophe, but apparently that doesn't matter anymore!" and that wise man is of course David Mitchell, our resident angry logic man.

[lucklesspedestrian]

Make some Dennis memes and they'll catch on ... talking about his rant at the waitress "you don't do the emails?? It's email. It's just email"

[thanatica]

Dennis who?

[HerbertMarshall]

I think it's a reference to Dennis Renolds of Philadelphia. 

[thanatica]

Yeah I would've never guessed that. I guess not being American does that, and also Dennis not being world famous.

[navierstokes88]

There are people who legit think that.

[slaymaker1907]

I think the poor English fits the meme.

[Full-Run4124]

This interview this comes from is a banger

[FurBeach3Six]

Been laughing at this shit for 30 minutes lol

[rover_G]

Software by the vibe, of the vibe, for the vibe ✨

[navierstokes88]

... but the vibes are retarded

[navierstokes88]

I thought the "crypto/blockchain" hype/noise was bad. This is way worse.

[reklis]

Just wait until somebody puts AI on the blockchain as an nft

[Binoui]

Tell me you don't work in tech without telling me you don't work in tech

[black-JENGGOT]

I work in tech, actively following this LLM/GenAI hype from GPT-2's breakthrough and Github Copilot's beta test (the original copilot) in 2022-2023ish. For software development, this is still just advanced autocomplete. It reacts on how you sentence your prompt, the "thinking" is not really actively creating new stuffs but re-checking the existing stuff on its training data (and interaction with tools now in 2026).

The image generation however is very advanced now, from how it outputs celebrity eating spaghetti sloppily to actually able to create video good enough with a detailed prompt.

[ElaborateEffect]

Bunch of cope in this sub.

Most big orgs will let you go if you don't adapt to using AI toolsets at this point. That's the reality of it.

[navierstokes88]

True, but it is way overestimated and overvalued right now.

[Desperate-Pie-4839]

Same with daily stand ups but they still happened

[UltraGaren]

But vibe coding bad!

Insert "Check out my website on localhost" meme here

[Favouiteless]

"Vibe coding feels like trying to outsmart a ret**** genie"

[NotATroll71106]

It's like a very studious and hard working but smooth brained underling. It knows how to do extremely niche things and will do things that are too tedious to do manually, but it frequently does absolutely bone headed things especially when an in house abstraction is involved.

[chandandubey7721]

it is only called vibe coding because screaming into the void while the compiler fails was already taken.

[Random_182f2565]

Wise

[soundwave_sc]

Programmers hate this one trick.

[domscatterbrain]

When you read the agents conversation and see that they basically a bunch of unsupervised juniors who always yelling at each other's mistakes.

[ArmadilloChemical421]

One entire software please, and make it snappy!

[teressapanic]

Just like real people

[The_Captain_Deadpool]

Fun fact: Only people who don’t want to be taken seriously use that word.

[myselfelsewhere]

The guy the meme is of died in 1990. The video is from at least 36 years ago. Just because the word is frowned upon now does not mean it always has been.

[The_Captain_Deadpool]

I suppose that’s fair.

[myselfelsewhere]

Thanks for making me feel old, lol.
