not to be an AI bootlicker, but i don't get why people treat AI-generated code like it's the Plague 2. it's not; all code is constrained by the programming language, and so it either implements the feature correctly... or it doesn't. yes, human review is undeniably important, but other than that, AI-generated code and human code is still all logic at the end of the day

Antoine’s argument is still very naive and short sighted.

Only because some corporations are linked to fascism, does not make the technology inherently fascist.

If these links are an issue, we should also all stop using Microsoft and Google, because they offer Isreael computing power, and thus every service is now supporting genocide. So if you are that user, all fine, enjoy an off-grid life. But don’t pretend to be better, if you still rely on those companies in the first place.

there are robust anti Microsoft and anti Google movements getting more and more mainstream over time. there are plenty of great alternatives to MS and Google software and services. Linux and FOSS as a whole is benefiting immensely from anti Microsoft sentiment right now. We can and should boycott these two terrible companies

"Avoiding fascist-supporting companies is inconvenient" is a poor excuse, especially when it's so easy to degoogle compared to 10 years ago.

Oh, please... is it still a text generator, or is it already a religion?
