Am a developer, please do not pay for any software subscription if you don’t think it’s worth it.

Us devs would love to give the best experience, but if the customer is willing to pay for a shit experience, guess which path management makes you take.

I agree, I don’t really use it but I do like some of the memes that came out of it, case in point:

Shit, I’ve been upset for losing a friend, your right, losing a parent is terrible, sorry to hear.

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.

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.

Best part is the noise it makes when the fans finally shut down, it is finally at peace.

Nah, just force him to sell spaceX.

I wonder if musk envy’s Putin or the other way around, maybe it’s both?

Been feeling some FOMO about the books, FOMO gone!

It’s like someone calling you a spice lover

It’s like telling on yourself.

As a software dev, you are my hero!

Well this is a fantastic explanation, thank you!

Yes, we shouldn’t blame all Jews, but I’m a little confused, isn’t the concept of a promise land pretty central to Judaism?

I don’t really like any religion but I think there is a religious “justification” here.

I guess my question is, how is Zionism different than the concept of the promise land?

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 only serf Amazon on private without being logging in, if I find something I like, then I copy the link to my regular browser.

If you’re not gonna give a lurker a good price, I’m not interested.

Amateurs, all respondents imagined something new.

My mind is so efficient, it just plays something back.

This is what I saw

Except he pushed it towards her instead of picking it up.

Soooo… is it a world war yet?

On right wing social media, there was tons of posts about this but nothing about the robo taxis.

It’s kind of like know your audience. Right wing people would love to praise Musk, left wing people don’t (for good reason imo).

I’m actually proud of lemmy cause I saw multiple posts for the rocket (as in, it seems to try to cover everything) and many people in the comment pointed out that a lot of great engineers worked on this and this is a human achievement.
