    Breaking News: High failure rates reported in early stage Oldowan startups make millennials reconsider tool use.

    This just seems like anti-computer evangelism from the 1950’s and 1960’s, and anti internet stuff in the 90’s, being repurposed.

    I’m working with anti-Manichean attacks repurposing old anti-Marcionite attacks at the moment, same stuff.

    Bronze tooling is more than fine to get stuff done.

      “AI” is more of a scam than a tool.

      We do not yet have artificial intelligence. At all. They only call it that to scam idiots.

        It’s been an academic discipline since the 1950’s and a work in progress since at least Ada Lovelace.

        Calling AI a scam for idiots is fair enough: but please include writing, machines and computers there too.

        World class moron Linus Torvadls on the matter 14 July 2026:


        "AI is a tool, just like other tools we use. And it’s clearly a useful one.

        It may not have been that “clearly” even just a year ago, but it’s no longer in question today."***
