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.

Oh my god but coding seriously sucks. I studied it when I was in college getting my networking degrees. And dear God I hate to code so so much.
Then don't? It's not a call to action for people like you lol
I mean it was a general consensus. So many people hate the code so many people can't understand how to code and so many people never want to code. So just in general saying I wish more people would learn how to code and more people should be coding is kind of a moot point. Those people that really want to code and like to code are already the people that are doing it. The rest of us that either hate the code or don't want the code have to be incredibly careful about people like this that are being disingenious with their code base.
then they should do something else.
There are enough people who don't hate it. love it, in fact
But if you started to get involved there would be more eyes and hands on the code which would reduce the use of AI for that purpose.
You don't have to code, you can help by
None of those require coding skills but are still needed for a FOSS project. So let's all get to contributing! I expect to see your PR soon!!
Okay the whole point of what I responded to was the guy said that he wishes more people would get into coding. My response back was I hate to code and there are a lot of people that hate to code or that can't code. Yes I'm very aware of all of the other ways that you can contribute to FOSS.
