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.

You probably create AI slop and present it proudly to people.
AI should replace dumb monotonous shit, not creative arts.
I couldn't care less about AI art. I use AI in my work every day in dev. The coworkers who are not embracing it are falling behind.
Edit: I keep my AI use and discoveries private, nobody needs to know how long (or little) it took me.
Then most likely you will start falling behind... perhaps in two years, as it won't be as noticable quickly, but there will be an effect in the long term.
This is a myth pushed by the anti-ai crowd. I'm just as invested in my work as ever but I'm now far more efficient. In the professional world we have code reviews and unit tests to avoid mistakes, either from jr devs or hallucinating ai.
"Vibe coding" (which most people here seem to think is the only way) professionally is moronic for anything other than a quick proof of concept. It just doesn't work.
I know senior devs who fell behind just because they use too much google.
This is demonstrably much worse.
Lmao the brain drain is real. Learning too much is now a bad thing
