    It’s sad they feel like they have to placate the luddites, but they are so loud that it’s understandable. It’s like handing out pacifiers at the opera. People shouldn’t be bringing those so under-developed that they can’t appreciate the production, but since they will anyways, they can attempt to minimize the disruption of bawling toddlers who can’t comprehend what’s happening and just want it to stop.

      If you think that replacing a developer with a stats based chatbot is progress, then you are increadibly naïve.

      I am an IT guy, and I value my skills far too much to get lazy and let a chatbot do the work.

      I have tried it a few times, and it terrified me with how easy it was, I could feel myself getting into it and growing dependent on it.

      But luckily I am too much of a control freak to give up that control and independence.

      My prediction is that two things will happen in the next ten years.

      1. The AI crash is coming, it is inevitable.
      2. AI will be monetized, hard.

      AI companies are basically drug dealers right now, they are building dependence and addiction.

      In a few years when AI is firmly integrated into the workflow of millions of companies, prices will go up, hard, very hard, and companies will just have to pay.

      And that will cause a lot of bankrupcies.

        I think it doesn’t matter. I think the world is fucked as a result of billionaires, and so I might I as well enjoy just games regardless of what tools were used, because there’s always something worse.
