From a worker standpoint, while you’re researching that thing you can find for yourself, someone of equal skill to you that is leveraging AI has solved 3 of those issues.
And I’ve rejected their code for unnecessary complexity and issues they overlooked all three times so actually nothing was solved. AI does not increase productivity. At all. Study after study after study has confirmed this. AI can spew out what sounds reasonable to people of low skill. That’s it.
I don’t use AI, but I’ve watched enough other people who’s intelligence I used to respect devolve into token monkeys who understand nothing anymore.
I agree its pandoras box but I disagree about the quality of life it brings. What it is creating is larger electric bills that is strangling the lower class, killing consumer low end computers which also harms the lower class, creating a dependency which will likely increase in price, lowering childrens critical thinking (according to studies private schools are not being as affected), killing jobs, oh and the fuck ton of effect it has on climate change which also affects the lower class more.
Yeah but you see, everyone who’s gun-ho on AI doesn’t seem to be bother to give two fucks. It’s bat-shit people are chasing this like their lives depend on it. They don’t give a fuck about the lower class, they never have, it’s a new shiny toy, and until something catastrophic happens, nothing is going to change.
improve a workers productivity when you compare two workers of equal skill.
It makes you seem more productive in most metrics that corporate america seems to measure, but that doesn’t really mean anything. Even if most of what the current AIs produce would be good quality (and it’s not, its mediocre at best), one hallucination costs you more time than everything it saved you.
You’ve used it once 2+ years ago and wrote it off completely. Do you also still do your laundry with a wasboard and clothesline? Is the Internet just a fad also?
I just don’t get why people like you exist. You guys have the stupidest fucking arguments for why not wanting to use the regurgitation machine that murders the environment and causes people to kill themselves is bad.
But, like, do you still use NFTs? That was the future. It was so the future. Same fucking arguments from the same fucking mouth-breathing dipshits.
And using AI does not even make you faster or better at what you do. It can increase output, and it can cause you to do a shit job, and it can falate your ego so you think you are soooo much better and bigger than everyone else, you big strong muscly man, you. You’re basically just saying that workers can never and should never have any fucking downtime, ever. They cannot stop. They must always, always produce, more and more. And, like, fuck all the way off. You don’t need to output more. You do not need to be faster. You don’t need AI, even if it was as good as people pretend it is, which it is not!
Because AI sucks. It isn’t good at anything other than replicating an amalgamation of the data that is fed into it. Anyone that says it is good at any other thing is just shit at that specific thing and doesn’t know any better. LLMs are just huge giant matrices full of coefficients matching language segments. They don’t know jackshit. They have relatively small context windows compared to even the dumbest motherfucker on this planet and people working on making LLMs better are running out of shortcuts to make them better. The money they have been lent needs to start making it back. And they can’t make money because they are subsidizing everyone using AI with that venture capital because it still hasn’t made a fucking dime yet.
Don’t worry, guys. We just need to keep feeding more data into it! It’s so much better, guys, I swear! This one won’t hallucinate all the time, bro, I swear! Just one more model, it’s so close!
Unfortunately, even with their small context windows, useless matrices, and lowly statistical representions of language segments, they are better at debugging, brainstorming, “coding”, and answering questions than a lot of people, let alone “the dumbest mother fucker on the planet”.
That’s why those people do not code or do those other things, and, surprisingly, most of those people don’t suddenly think they are now better than a person who has done… Just… The smallest amount of actual training to become good at that thing.
You got that AI psychosis in you, buddy. Ask your AI friend for the nearest person to get you the hell away from it.
If only telling you how brainwashed you are would actually fox things. Let me know when you have enough tokens to reply to me.
From a worker standpoint, while you’re researching that thing you can find for yourself, someone of equal skill to you that is leveraging AI has solved 3 of those issues. And someone with more skill has solved 10. And someone with lesser has either crashed the network, or solved that same 1.
This is complete fantasy. I’ve personally watched like 10 SEs decide LLMs are the best things since sliced bread and talk up how much more productive they are and without exception they’re all to varying degrees just worse at their job. Same for every other role I’ve observed as well, though I have fewer data points.

No I read that. My experience is that relative skill doesn’t matter. Introduce AI and you’ll churn out slop, not solve problems

Okay but one of those is an artform and the other is physical labor.
Programming doesn’t really equate to physical labor like that.
