I have taken so much shit for my positions on "AI" these past few years, so much ridicule and hostility.

I have not forgotten and will not forgive. I will be the most petty and vindictive bitch about this when it all comes crashing down and the skill rot really hits.

I will have my schadenfreude.

Oh, you never bothered to learn how to efficiently read a research paper during your undergrad degree because your chatbot daddy always gave you an easy (though incorrect) summary, but you loved to make fun of me for "wasting time" actually reading the assigned literature?

Sucks to be you I guess.

@aesthr I sometimes say that the ability - or technique - to read and ingest scientific papers is the most important thing I learned in my university life.

@aesthr Can we have the crash now? I'm tired of waiting for it to happen.

@aesthr yeah, really … this shit makes me want to hold onto cumbersome, hard and time-consuming skills. Like actually analyzing grammar with my own eyes and mind. Like writing code with nothing but a text editor and reference files. Like reading centuries-old treatises to understand how a modern thing came to be. Like examining the structure and logic of an argument. Like making physical things with low-tech tools.
