One thing I notice with a lot of software people I follow(ed) who got more into LLMs is that it’s like the only thing they’ve now have an opinion on.

Instead of posting interesting stuff about building beautiful houses they post about the same hammer 500 times.

@thomasfuchs Sounds like the same thing that happened to software people who went all-in on crypto.

@thomasfuchs it's an interesting effect when someone is extremely opposed to something, and then they are proven wrong in some dramatic fashion, sometimes their brain will go "huh, I guess I was completely wrong, now I need to swing to the other extreme!" I think we've seen it a lot with hard right politics, and I think we're now seeing the same effect with AI.

@thomasfuchs last beautiful house was commissioned like 10-15 years ago. all of IT builds are warehouses and barracks, maybe someone is lucky to build rich guy Mac mansion. long way from any resemblance of beauty
