  Hi! It’s me, the guy you discussed this with the other day! The guy that said Lemmy is full of AI wet blankets.

  Omg you found me in another post. I’m not even mad; I do like how passionate you are about things.

  Since there isn’t any room for nuance on the Internet, my comment seemed to ruffle feathers. There are definitely some folks out there that act like ALL AI is worthless and LLMs specifically have no value. I provided a list of use cases that I use pretty frequently where it can add value. (Then folks started picking it apart with strawmen).

  What you’re talking about is polarization and yeah, it’s a big issue.

  This is a good example, I never did any strawman nor disagree with the fact that it can be useful in some shape or form. I was trying to say its value is much much lower than what people claim to be.

  But that’s the issue with polarization, me saying there is much less value can be interpreted as absolute zero, and I apologize for contributing to the polarization.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linus Torvalds reckons AI is ‘90% marketing and 10% reality’⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And then people will complain about that saying it’s almost all hype and no substance.

  Then that one tech bro will keep insisting that lemmy is being unfair to AI and there are so many good use cases.

  No one is denying the 10% use cases, we just don’t think it’s special or needs extra attention since those use cases already had other possible algorithmic solutions.

  Tech bros need to realize, even if there are some use cases for AI, there has not been any revolution, stop trying to make it happen and enjoy your new slightly better tool in silence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to feel tired of technological progress?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What your experiencing is a kind of social decay due to people being squeeze more and more, and not just economically.

  This isn’t specific to tech though, if there was no tech, they would just find other ways to make life harder.

  This is just the journey we’ve been on since the Industrial Revolution where the market decides what our new environment is for the sake of profit.

  The good news is that it’s a journey of ups and downs, so it could stop being dystopian soon.

  Of course not, the whole point of disinformation is that it sounds correct, that’s AI’s bread and butter!

  I think it’s cause of envy. Every once in a while, a game comes that just seems to do a lot of things and become very very successful (like red dead and gta).

  Then these other studios get FOMO and turn to a go big or go home attitude.

  So what you end up is this inflation of features when only a few devs can land a big game like that.

  I mean, she is not trying to keep a private life, she is trying to capitalize on her 15 mins of fame. If she wants the fame, the label should be fair game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree but I also like to point out that the AI craze started with LLMs and those MLs have been around before OpenAI.

  So if openAI never released chat GPT, it wouldn’t have become synonymous with crypto in terms of false promises.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not only that, image analysis and statistical guesses have always been around and do not need ML to work. It’s just one more tool in the toolbox.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Software fixes now account for over 20% of car recalls⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As a dev, imo this is an industry wide problem with late stage capitalism and software.

  You can reach a point in software where it’s “done”. It meets the core requirements while having enough complexity to make it robust.

  But that’s incompatible with capitalism so you get know nothing managers trying to convince investors that more money can be made with more features even if no one asked for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Risky Buisness⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh, one part of me feels bad for her cause of all the attention, but she seems like she wants to capitalize on it.

  It’s her choice but I feel like the jokes are a little more justified if she wants to stay in the spotlight.
