      Like 70% of the points on that site are… Disingenuous at best. It’s not wrong over all at all. But I do wish people would stop throwing in a bunch of bullshit along with the good points.

      I hate ai on many moral standards and see it as highly problematic, but also see it as a fun toy.

      It makes it hard to have any honest conversations about the problems around ai when everyone is basically a religious zealot spouting as much bullshit as the ai tech bros are.

      Is ai a problem? Yes. There’s no honest way to disagree with that. But the real conversation is far more nuanced than that.

        I stopped reading at “fun toy”.

        There’s always some shill willing to go “yeah this steals people’s work, mangles it and spews bullshit back at them, all while destroying the environment, to make a few dudes richer. It’s nuanced”. 🙄

          You just described capitalism. I think it’s strange that so many people are pinning this flaw on AI. I guess AI just made it all start happening fast enough, and to the right people, that y’all noticed?

          Anyway sure, let’s tear it down. I can’t be down with you if you just want to get back to last decade and before, when the “stealing mangling bullshit polluting machine” was only stealing people’s ideas and destroying environments outside your own though.

        There’s using AI assistance for clean coding and following all the other guidelines of good software development otherwise.

        And there’s giving Claude Code a simple prompt to generate a ready-to-run application and uploading the result to GitHub as-is because you want to be a coder, but you don’t know jack shit about coding or software development or licenses.
