@jenniferplusplus this is maybe more what i'm reacting to. don't dismiss this stuff too quickly and bathe yourself in false comfort. If you are working on software, there's a reasonable chance these things can do a significant chunk of your job better than you. That they can't necessarily do it all, or do so for an extravagant amount of resources doesn't change that. I also don't want to sound contrarian, I know I might be a bit too autistic in my communication style (and I'm just as frustrated and anxious and exhausted like the rest of us).

@mnl @jenniferplusplus you seem fucking exhausting and have a long history on your public profile of AI boosterism so it’s not surprising that your response to both my and Jennifer’s posts is bland hype that doesn’t respond to any of the facts we’ve put forth oh we’ll be left behind if we don’t adopt this terrible crap? good. leave us the fuck alone.
