Never deploy on a Friday.
A Friday the 13th? Doubly so.

When USSR was crumbling, factories were also paying workers in products they manufactured.
This is AI bubble companies trying to print own money. Printing your own money only works if you find a way to make it necessary. That's what taxes do, for example (recommended reading: David Graeber's "Debt").
Here:
๐ "printing money" part is paying employees in tokens
๐ "taxes" part is requiring employees to use AI in their day to day work (thus making tokens necessary)

๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ "not yet begun to fight"A.I. musicians are COOKED. I just recorded an ENTIRE SONG using nothing but my instruments and a few microphones. This would have cost upwards of hundreds of dollars in expensive A.I. subscription fees but for me it was completely FREE. Don't get left behind. This is the future!
all-inclusive gender resortyou know what feels good? taking my time writing code by hand, thinking about a plan and exceptions, writing tests and fixing bugs, getting reviews from another person who also cares about finding and fixing problems, and doing my best.
"oh but it turns out not all software needs to be engineered to such high quality standards!" i hear you say, to which i have 2 responses:
Whenever I go on LinkedIn, basically every post is about people writing thousands of lines of code and closing dozens of tickets a day with AI coding tools. As someone who doesn't use the things that seems like typical LinkedIn exaggeration.
Slightly tongue-in-cheek, but I work on a small team in a hospital so I have no visibility into what's going on in places with bigger engineering orgs. So, what is development looking like where you are? Boosts welcome.
All AI, all the time
Some people are using LLMs
Typical LinkedIn exaggeration
Why would you go on LinkedIn, you fool?

Lucie / minutefor whoever needs to hear this: you're not alone. i'm not vibecoding any of the software i write. i'm writing it by hand, but i've leveled up my emacs with eglot/lsp. i'm modernizing my stacks and use languages with excellent compilers. i think about how to do more with less. i'm trying to combine the best human-written libraries and modules and assemble them with minimal boilerplate. i enjoy reading your manuals and references. i believe in robust, secure, human-written software.

Alexander Corby ๐ต๐ทEven if gen AI was environmentally safe and ethically trained (it is neither of those things) I'd still wouldn't use or endorse it.
I think what unnerves me more than anything is this horrible misconception that art/writing is only worth the product it creates.
That's BS
The process of a creative pursuit transforms the creator as much as the creator shapes the creation. If we denigrate art down to a product that can be slammed out with the push of a button, we rob ourselves of self-reflection, vision, discipline, and visceral knowledge that creativity fosters.
I'm already seeing young students unable to imagine their own ideas for projects and such either because they aren't developing the necessary critical thinking skills, or because they don't want to risk creating a finished product that isn't "good enough". But, as most creators I'm sure would agree, you will learn so much more from creating a failure that being handed a success.
That's why I will not assign any work that uses "AI". I absolutely cannot rob my students of that self-discovery.
