    Personally I’m more in the “oh yes please take my job as a programmer” mindset, yet none of the currently available tools seem to be anywhere near capable of it.

    When they do, I guess I’ll just translate the b.s. customers spit into something that’s even humanly readable, just merely distilling the intent often isn’t enough. Also A.I. needs to ‘learn’ to say no, because even though the customer asks for something, doesn’t mean they actually want to have the result of their question.

      Exactly. It’s not even capable of properly doing web development, imagine trying to use it to target environment requiring absolute optimisation… Or even just video games.

    It seems to me like there’s a lot of talk in the vein of “AI will never be able to meaningfully replace humans at [Task X],” and not enough talk about what we should do to prepare for the possibility of AI replacing humans at those tasks.

    Like, right now, AI can create shitty art and write shitty code, but are we prepared for what happens if and when it can do those things well? We’ve got to acknowledge that human lives have inherent value, and not just because they can do things that machines can’t.

      No, we aren’t prepared, because there is no we. And they don’t have to acknowledge any such thing, because they are literal fucking psychopaths.

      “UBI…?” Hahahaha. NO.

      They intend to wring every last drop of productivity out of what’s left of the working class, finish the job of consolidating all wealth at the top and leaving us with absolutely nothing. After that, the plan is to keep the angry starving hordes away from the walls of their freedom cities and luxury bunkers and super-ultra-mega-yachts with AI powered auto-turrets and kill-bots and murder-drones and robot dogs with frickin flamethrowers on their heads.

      .

        Then they will someday wake up with a shock, because no amount of tech will stop 99% of the population from winning a revolution. That only happens in movies.

        Plus, many countries would riot far before it gets to this point. We frenchies protested for years “just” because of our retirement being pushed a few years…

    The difference between AI and Coder:

    The Coder fixes it’s errors. AI is just pretending everything would just run fine.

      Ai has the sigma grindset. Fake it till you make it (but most probably crash and burn without handholding) lmao

    Coder makes loud noises, waves its arms in the air, then throws its own feces at the crowd
