Ed Zitron on the tech industry in 2026: "Everything must be done faster, with less people, with less organizational support, but more use of a tool best known for its hallucinations and ruinous cost, which you must use a lot, but also not too much. However much you use it, you must constantly celebrate it for fear a cult of personality and mediocrity will isolate or fire you for the crime of not wanting to 'Do AI'."

RE: @Kristofferabild@hachyderm.io

The Nerd Reich will lay into him savagely over this. They think they are champions of humanity's future, so hearing a spiritual leader challenge that will be enraging. But standing up and speaking out in defence of humanity is precisely what spiritual leaders should do.

And this is _after_ the multitude of accounting tricks that they employ to make the numbers look better.

#NowPlaying Henry Parker - The Dark Peak

"A journey into the gritstone landscape of the northern moors of the Peak District National Park...taking in the sounds of curlews, lapwings, grouse and the bitter winds that drive over these high and lonely tops."

"Ostensibly a solo #guitar record, the #music here is a reflection of what it feels like to hike long distances and camp in wild, solitary places."

Replying to @sue@glasgow.social
@sue Yeah, my own experiences of testing a different LLM have been similar. Couldn't find docs for how to do something with an obscure library, tried asking LLM for an example of how to do the thing. It obligingly produced code but completely hallucinated the only part I needed info on. When I challenged it on this, it cheerfully admitted making it up. A human developer who repeatedly behaved like this wouldn't stay in their job for long...
