Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

  1. Linux is being sponsored by AI providers. Consider this as de facto corruption.
  2. IMHO, he, and some other "vibe code bad, moderated LLM use good" developers are falling for the industry's definition of anti-AI "extremism" (simple refusal of AI usage, refusal of engaging with genAI output), and being a moderate with AI (reading the output, etc.).

Yea I have to agree I hate this "moderated LLM use good" stance. I have used LLMs (through private browser windows without login) to understand documentation before, or to get a usage example for a specific function, and I already feel dirty for it. I will absolutely not use that snake oil to generate code for me or even consider installing anything on my hardware.

Even worse is, it still makes up stuff when used in "moderation", so you'll get the downsides of vibe coding without the benefits, because you didn't want to read the docs.
