Well that fully answers the questions I had I guess

Why is everyone a milkshake duck

God what's the odds that he also used a wisdom woodchipper to produce the text of that pdf lol

Also referenced here with a debunk by a material scientist.

Economics not beating the allegations of not being a serious science once again

What does this have to do with literally anything I said about comparing AI with interns

But what's the point of having that if it doesn't result in improvement on the other side? Like you're doing hard work to correct code and respond with feedback but you're putting that into the void to no one's benefit.

Hiring an intern makes sense. It's an investment. Hiring an AI at the same skill level makes negative sense.

I don't think I ever had a vibe-check as successful as this, literally never heard about the guy, said he needs to be shoved into a locker based on vibes, an hour later he searches for his own name to respond and gets hammered in replies for supporting The Big Orb. Just a quintessential internet moment.

Sorry for being late, busy wanking off to the sexy robot in the article. So ye, anyway, why'd you do that?

Don't worry, if you apply yourself really hard one day you might become an actual engineer. Keep trying.

I treat AI as a new intern that doesn’t know how to code well

This statement makes absolutely zero sense to me. The purpose of having a new intern and reviewing their code is for them to learn and become a valuable member of the team, right? Like we don't give them coding tasks just for shits and giggles to correct later. You can't turn an AI into a senior dev by mentoring it, however the fuck you'd imagine that process?

In my workflow there is no difference between LLMs and fucking grep for me.

Well grep doesn't hallucinate things that are not actually in the logs I'm grepping so I think I'll stick to grep.

(Or ripgrep rather)

He is even politely asked at first "no AI sludge please" which is honestly way more self-restraint than I would have on my maintained projects, but he triples down with a fucking AI-generated changeset.

Ye I mean I found it after I got halfway through the article and there were no tea jokes, since that seemed kind of odd.

Ah, yes, medicine. A field without regulations

Okay but there's is a rather large chance there will be no regulations by end of 2025 once RFK has his fun, so they're just ahead of their time

I had no idea what Lloyd's is, I was 100% sure we were talking about the mid tea brand and couldn't for the life of me figure out why they'd have a chatbot

The comment and response are much better in full

Well I’ll be. There are anti-blockchain people in the comments. I post an image showing web3 and NFT ads running right here on the site…and it gets deleted. Oh well. That’s all folks. Until next time.

Response from Bree Royce (staff) 1 day ago

I already replied to you, and I told you how advertising works and how our readers help us by reporting these ads so we can block them when they sneak through Google by misleadingly flagging themselves to mask what they are. And then I got my tech to block the ad once I found it. And then I deleted your post for being off-topic since our ads have nothing to do with this news article. But perhaps I should have left it: The fact that blockchain hucksters deliberately lie and mislabel their ads to sneak through Google’s filters because legitimate gamers and respectable websites don’t want anything to do with them should tell everyone all they need to know about this tech. :::

Also it's incredibly amusing the guy's profile picture is the only one that doesn't load on the entire site, I don't even know why that is but thank god I don't have to look at that artistic abortion.

The platform was designed first and foremost to be a virtual town hall of engagement opportunities in which all technologies are seamlessly integrated and abstracted

what

That's like reading the marketing page for some cloud tool that your manager will surely pester you about on the next daily. "Hey, I think we should use Sporgle. They seamlessly integrate and abstract all technologies in a virtual town hall of engagement opportunities." ¹

Just have fun with your friends and we’ll take care of the rest.

That's what I've been doing and I didn't need you to help with that so I'll just carry on I think.

¹ Only that was back in 2020. Now they've rebranded to Sporgle.ai. The marketing page is exactly the same only there's "with the power of AI" added at the end.

Do you sometimes read what you wrote and apply some sort of self-reflection?

changing upper/lower capitalization

That's literally a built-in VSCode command my dude, it does it in milliseconds and doesn't require switching a window or even a conscious thought from you

It's maddening that they did actually take away the headphone jack from all modern phones and there's nothing we can do about it even though it objectively sucks
