Whatever you believe about what the Right Thing should be, you can’t control it by refusing what is happening right now. Skipping AI is not going to help you or your career. Think about it. Test these new tools, with care, with weeks of work, not in a five minutes test where you can just reinforce your own beliefs. Find a way to multiply yourself, and if it does not work for you, try again every few months.

P.S. I learned that not all of you are developers.

    Please use it bro. Skipping it will ruin your career. Please. Think about it, you want to use it, right? One more AI, it’s the future, just please use it, bro. You’re missing out, just give it a try.

    I’m already having a hard time pushing back against the very real AI hype ocean around me…skepticism IS warranted.

    Reversing this and calling that skepticism “anti-AI hype” like there are giant worldwide marketing campaigns and billionaire financing for “anti-AI” sounds very silly.

    PS: and I want cheap RAM back!

      I hate both fascists and the tools of fascist empires.

      It is troubling that you are encouraging people to ignore those opposed to fascism though.

      One can be right wing and hate AI as well. AI has nothing inherently political.

      • They require huge amounts electric power.

      • Aggresive scrapers are a problem to many sites and they do not respect robots.txt directive.
      • Some LLM’s have criminal and pornographic content in their data collected.
