Yesterday I saw someone boast that as a designer he can just feed his figma file to an AI and “instantly get a working product”. “It’s not vibecoding”, he wrote on LinkedIn, “I am guiding the software”.
This saves him so much time he now has time left for freelance work! …

What is it with these people who think their expertise is the one thing AI can’t do, while shouting from the rooftops it can do everything and replace everyone else? 🤪 is this how some people mentally deal with this stuff?

@Anneke I suspect it's because LinkedIn is part of the Microsoft circus that they enhance the reach of voices like this. I once reported a wild claim of "AGI in our times" that seemed from a real person only to get the LI service get back to me that it was an ad(!) that totally fell within the posting guidelines. #ThePurposeOfASystemIsWhatItDoes

@fnrd no this was actually a dude I personally knew as an intern for a company I was employed with 14 years ago. People are actually like this 🫠
