"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.

The band Muse has surrendered its Instagram and X handles to Meta after the release of its new AI agent, Muse.

The English rock band Muse has been renamed on Instagram and X from “Muse” to “museband.”

Despite the band Muse having had its Instagram account since 2012 and its X account since 2008, it has seemingly surrendered the handle to Mark Zuckerberg’s newest AI agent.

My coworker was bragging about his AI agent automating a very tedious task for him... I've automated this task as well....with a python script. Works instantly, consistently, and doesn't need to connect to the Internet...

Does your coworker know python?

Nope, but guess what? Neither do I.

You can call me a hypocrite but I'm not totally anti-AI. I use VS Code (free through work) once in awhile as a tool to...make tools. Nothing is particularly advanced but neither are the things his AI agent does for him.

I work in AutoCAD so they're mostly one-off LISP routines but part of my job is submitting the information in the drawing sets separately (device lists, bulk wire requirements, etc). I vibe coded a script that pulls that info and puts it in an Excel template. I have a similar one that does the reverse, pulling the parts list into AutoCAD from a bill of materials.

Both took under 30 minutes and I've used them consistently for a year.
