"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Yeah, my company's like that too. I'm like, why are we spending tokens when we know what the fix is and the AI isn't listening?
I think they believe that we're gaining the skills to navigate the AI?
I get it because it can accelerate a lot of development in certain ways, but like, we're also losing the mental map of the codebase with this. I think it'd matter less for projects but for products ... it's weird to be like, "I never write code any more!" and be proud of it ... although to be fair, I haven't written much code after I became a lead.
