    The code is immaculate. Its fully tested as well. No one has looked at the code, they’ve just complained.

    Even if that’s correct it isn’t even the main reason why people are pissed about the use of AI. No matter if the code is “perfect” or not, it was created primarily using inherently immoral and outright dangerous tools.





  • You don’t bet in achieving a pipe dream in the near future when developing something (at least I hope you don’t). The actual AI devs are also rather humble about what can be realistically achieved in the near future if they’re allowed to speak openly, it’s the techbros and investors who’re blowing everything up so phenomenally that the only way for this bubble - which by now is big enough to crash the US economy on its own - to proceed is to achieve the literally impossible, which is General Artificial Intelligence within at least the next 2 to 3 years (they can only pump so much money into it). I haven’t heard a single developer or scientist saying this to even be remotely realistic.

    This is more about economics than programming, AI experts and grifters just collect the money as long as the bubble persist. Also has to do with tech-solutionism and latestage capitalism. In the end the science of Machine Learning will prevail (although a lot of devs might need to find other specialisations; perhaps COBOL?), but this economical house of cards will fall apart. Let’s hope it will burry US-neolibertarianism and -fascism under it this time.









  • That’s guilt by association. Their viewpoint is awful.

    I also wished there was no security at the gate of concerts, but I happily accept it if that means actual security (if done reasonably of course). And quite frankly, cute anime girl doing some math is so, so much better than those god damn freaking captchas. Or the service literally dying due to AI DDoS.

    Edit: Forgot to mention, proof of work wasn’t invented by or for crypto currency or blockchain. The concept exists since the 90’s (as an idea for Email Spam prevention), making their argument completely nonsensical.






  • Parts of me want to argue that “experienced devs” can’t seriously still ask ChatGPT for syntax correction. Like, I do that with Codestral as I’m learning Python (despite the occasional errors it’s still so much better than abstract docs…), but that should just be a learning thing… or is it because nowadays a single codebase often consists of 5+ languages and devs are expected to constantly learn all the new “hot shit” which obviously won’t make anyone experts in one specific one like back when the there just weren’t as many?
