The future's so bright I gotta jump in the glue pot now.
SkjeggtrollI'm not going to lie, there's a form of base satisfaction to be found in people declaring that education (or some subset, such as the humanities) is useless in a way that inherently reveals the need for it.

Paul Turnbull 🇨🇦@cstross There’s a tragic irony in that he apparently never even thought to ask his AI what happened to the horse population after cars.

I get guitar-making related emails, today’s was about different types of glue.
A few years ago I read* that Corinthian leather is horse hide. Put a different spin of old car commercials from my childhood.

Ari Sovijärvi@cstross Every AI tech bro ever is so smug about how people can finally stop learning skills and just "do things". Yet most people in IT world already know the concept of a coder who can't code to save their life. If anyone needs an example of what the code is like, Github's full of it now.

Ulrik Nyman ⬡@cstross There are a lot fewer horses than before the invention of the car.
Most of these horses that are kept for recreational riding probably live better lives on average.
The analogy still makes no sense at all.
