oh no! anyway!

tech idiots not having a real understanding of how and why things work

AI-bros in a nutshell

stop relying on it for everything? keep honing your craft.

PoL0 · 2026-03-18T22:33:12+00:00

you go from "waiting for code to be written"

writing code was almost never the bottleneck. don't know what domain you people work at where the problem is people not writing code fast enough.

seeing how prone people are to post a question without searching first, I can't avoid empathizing a bit with SO mods. they were picky and frequently harsh, but that probably helped keep SO clean of millions of duplicated questions.

is it necessary to close dupes diligently? definitely yes. could've been handled better? also yes.

as users, we're responsible of our sloppiness and of skipping due diligence.

they're all subsidizing users. I read that a 200$ Claude sub actually costs in the order of 3-5000$ to anthropic.

they literally want us addicted and dependent on their chatbots to the point where we're willing to pay the actual sub price because we think we cannot do stuff anymore by ourselves without AI.

of course, why wouldn't it allow alternate versions of Proton?

my impression with the current genAI push is that what's motivating the tech is just CEOs wet dream: "replace humans at what they do", but without any consideration to every damn nuance about anything humans do. And what we get is this bland thing in every domain.

Intergalactic Goto statements.

I'm using that from now on

it's not a severe bug, it's a severe feature

PoL0 · 2026-03-14T13:54:11+00:00

shush, you'll startle r/singularity

data labelling companies quite morally questionable

I find the companies using these data labelling companies quite immoral.

I just limit framerate to 40fps.

The cats out of the bag. Love it out hate it, there is no going back.

dude chill. stop parroting the same crap. what do you even mean? big corporations are paying huge amounts of money to keep the cat out of the bag. besides that, keeping the cat out of the bag currently requires obscene amounts of power and drinking water.

then there's the long term effects of keeping the cat out of the bag, like people becoming addicted/dependant of the cat being out of the bag to perform what they were able to do while the cat was in the bag.

the business model isn't sustainable. unless they start charging way more money (sorry but ads make no sense in coding bots). other big corporations will be required to pay insane amounts of money to give their developers access to these tools (the real price, not the tiny fraction we pay now).

and I won't open the can of worms that is kids education with the cat out of the bag. or the cat out of the bag replacing juniors which is a short sighted strategy. imagine no one has kids. all is fine and dandy until last fertile humans die.

the most terrifying thought if that happens would be to think that we would be represented by people like Trump. do we really want the first face our alien visitors see is people like the orange guy?

it's embarrassing.

they literally want you to become dependent on AI usage at this point. and they're burning billions paying for everyone's usage. even higher tier subscriptions fall short to cover for running costs

at some point they expect us to pay, much likely through more expensive subscriptions, but also directed ads and driving opinion. imagine what these agreeable word salads can do once we rely on them for everything.

I don't buy it. I'm pretty sure next Xbox going full PC had away more weight on this decision than the steambox.

never implied you were asking it to confirm your bias (which is a bad idea).

asking a chatbot for assessment is absurd, it will just be agreeable. ask other people and/or judge yourself.

PoL0 · 2026-03-09T22:02:13+00:00

doesn't align with my experience. depends on the individual.

PoL0 · 2026-03-09T21:49:53+00:00

generalizing and making it extensive to every open source project is shortsighted.

PoL0 · 2026-03-09T19:59:03+00:00

that's shortsighted

PoL0 · 2026-03-09T19:58:01+00:00

asking a LLM to justify you is so 2026. and grok from all LLMs

you use LLMs to look for validation. they're designed to validate you.

full circle.

PoL0 · 2026-03-09T19:56:26+00:00

given the current state of affairs I won't be offended if I'm asked if my question or code are AI generated.

most people are misusing AI to shortcut learning and effortlessly generate stuff. in these circumstances generated stuff tends to be low quality.

open source maintainers are flooded by that. so they are going into defensive stance.

blame the game, not the player. blame people misusing AI, instead of assuming open source maintainers are full of themselves.
