If you're a coder and you look up to me in any way as a programmer, please know that I cannot respect and in fact have a very poor opinion of people who voluntarily use any kind of cloud based LLM for coding with any kind of regularity

I say this because

1. I know some people do look up to me in that way

And

2. It is imo very important to create a culture of shame around the use of AI

AI is dogshit. And the more contact people have with AI, the more they'll realize it's dogshit and turn against it as tacky. The only reason anyone's doing any of it is because billionaires and multinationals are telling them "AI is the future!" and cramming it into everything

Even with all this they still can't get *most* people to give it more than a passing glance. Because people can instinctively recognize that it's dogshit, that it's useless insipid vapid bullshit with no intrinsic value

"Eniko why do you hate AI?"

the same reason everyone does, the output cannot be relied on, its unethical, unsafe, and sucks the humanity out of everything

like idk man why would i hate the thing that outputs unreliable dogshit lies devoid of any humanity or personality which is also unethical and unsafe? it's a fucking mystery really

@eniko

wild how those reasons are all rational and based on overwhelming evidence whereas the pro AI argument is based on 'well it will cure cancer' and 'i just want to fire all my employees'

@big_louse @eniko and "all the cool kids are doing it and you don't want to miss out, do ya?"
