I mean I would have a much harder time creating a "you're a fucking moron, go fuck yourself" email in a professional manner to some of my higher ups. Other than that, I would literally miss nothing about AI.

i asked the ai twice, couldnt help me. i had to think about it, and ask the old folk on the forums.
I used AI maybe 5 times, and it was pretty fucking stupid
If AI disappeared tomorrow could you still go through entire workday without ChatGPT?
If computers stopped working, would you?
Some people can't comprehend the fact that not everyone lives in silicon valley and works for a tech company.
I don't have a subscription at home, so I have to code without an LLM frequently. The only difference is how long a task takes.
I can't imagine how shit at your job you have to be that if AI disappeared you couldn't get through a single day of work
In a modern company an AI workday is a one hour day @maximum. The rest is writing purpose based purchase requisitions for AI tokens.
Never used it
Lol. AI was basically not a thing 5 years ago and the world wasn't a shithole where no one could do anything. Things actually got way worse for most of us since it's around, you dumb ass.
Claude was down yesterday.
The only reason I know was coworkers complaining about it in work chat.
Is this guy important, I need to know who he is so I can think less of him for his stupid comment.
It's made my work life a lot easier, but do I need it? No. At the end of the day the only thing that would change is that things take longer to get done.
Even with AI, I still read the docs to understand what it wants to do. Half the time I need to challenge it or refine the criteria.
The one place it has been a godsend for me is working in unfamiliar areas (a new library, new code ase, etc). Helps me onboard so much faster. Has helped accelerate learning too. But do I NEED it. No I don't. I'm still smarter than it, and all that's needed is time.

Funny that a bunch of frontier AI labs all just signed a letter asking for international cooperation to slow down AI development.
