@davatron5000 hi dave, great post mate, you’ve been part of my rss feed uprising against ai slop world. Thanks for staying human (weird I even need to say that). I was wondering, what is the general vibe at big tech on using AI? People are saying they are mandated to use a certain token quota, etc. However, from your post it seems you have a normal-person-non-hype-bs attitude to AI (refreshing of course).

@savtrip Good question, long answer. I'm under a mandate to use AI at work which has exposed me to some incredible/unreal generative AI projects, but also a lot of slop; it creates a lot of cognitive dissonance. So I have mixed views on AI and no grand thesis yet, but I'm working hard to protect my intellectual honesty – which means to not giving into the hype or the hate. I genuinely understand both perspectives tho. But I try to be real about what it can and can't do and avoid personifying it.
