"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.

If your juniors can commit slop directly to main the problem isn't them or the AI, it's your process.

Mandates to use AI are the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard. I quit a company over it last year.

I don't get it. Do managers think the guys plowing the fields saw someone go by with an ox an cart and went "I keep hearing about these ox carts, but I need my manager to tell me to use it before I try"? No. The ox and cart was better than plowing the field by hand, obviously so.

If the domain experts don't feel like a tool makes them productive, forcing them to use it isn't going to make them productive.
