Why are you lying? Lemmy creators are not leftists, they advocate for people getting murdered by the state, they advocate for authoritarianism and control of population. That’s why people dislike them, not because they’re “leftists.”

“I didn’t ad hom you” furiously ad homs some more

You’re really obnoxious, you know? So, you first make it about me (which is ad hominem, btw) and then you’re furious that I reply and make it about you?

So, correcting your nonsense is “ad hominem” now, huh? Newsflash: If you’re wrong and someone corrects you, it’s not ad hominem. And what the hell is the nonsense about moving the goalpost? Do you read what you type or do you just tell an AI to write your comments for you?

You sound like a sane person. Here you go, a lie as you wished.

I generally don’t write code to get an award, it’s just a tool to implement a business requirement.

Sure, the committee can decide that absolutely no AI can be used, doesn’t mean I can’t call it out as stupid because I disagree with it. They’re right to do that and I can not like it. It’s not like I’m sending death threats or anything, I just stated my opinion.

I wouldn’t draw the line at all. If you just tell AI “give me a texture for this and that” it will look like shit most of the time. You either have to be lucky or edit it anyway. Let alone if you want consistency across multiple textures/models/whatever. So, if the end result is good, I don’t particularly care.

I never claimed my answer is the One True Answer™ and I obviously think my answer is correct as does everyone else who has an opinion. And I’m pretty sure the consensus can only be one of two things: either the AI companies crash because it’s financially unsustainable to provide the services or every game company uses it to generate various amounts of code/models/textures etc.

I don’t think having AI be disqualified is the most efficient answer at all, nor do I think it’s an efficiency issue at all. The companies don’t care about that. They pay analysts to tell them which of these decisions will bring them more money. For now the analysts decided to play it safe and disqualify it. One day one young analyst with something to prove will say “well, everyone’s disqualifying it, why don’t we try a different way” and slowly everyone’s gonna allow it. IMO, anyway.

I mean, one of us is “defending” use of a technology that helps people, the other is publicly bashing their sister, implying she’s stupid (which might or might not be true, not the point). I’ll leave the conclusion to other readers, I have no more to say to a person like you.

Conflating multiple things together, are we?

But hey, everyone who doesn’t share your exact world view on all issues is a Nazi!

Oh, someone did read a Wikipedia article! No, it was not “appeal to popularity,” it was meant to show that you’d be hard to find a product where at least small part wasn’t generated with AI, meaning singling this company out because they admitted it is bullshit.

I don’t think that’s a relevant comparison - marathon is a race meant specifically to test what the human body is capable of. Using a car there is obviously against the goal of the competition.

When I’m writing code, I’ll happily offload the boring parts to AI. There’s only so many times you can solve the same problem without it being boring. And I’ve been doing this long enough that actually new problems I haven’t solved yet are pretty rare.

I did and you’re right. That’s why I’m firmly in the “it’s just a fucking tool” gang.

Both people who treat it like a messiah and those who treat it like the worst thing ever seem pretty much insane to me.

I mean, it’s a tool. You can use a hammer to smash someone’s skull in or you can use it to put some nail on a wall.

If you see it used like that, it’s shitty developers, the AI is not to blame. Don’t get me wrong, I do have coworkers who use it like this and it sucks. One literally told to next time tell Copilot directly what to fix when I’m doing a review.

But overall it helps if you know how and most importantly when to use it.

Dude, go touch grass, please. This is embarrassing.

I didn’t mean it in the literal sense but if it makes you happy, we can pretend that whenever someone says “everyone” they mean it literally.

The anti AI crowd is getting crazy. Everyone uses it during development.

It’s a tool for fuck’s sake, what’s next? Banning designers from using Photoshop because using it is faster and thus taking jobs from multiple artists who would have to be employed otherwise?

Fuck that cancer site giving you the option to either give them all data or go one by one over 200 “partners” and disable them.

I don’t think the point is that you can sue them if it only lasts 13 billion years, but the under current conditions it’s projected lifetime is 14 billion years. Which is a very big number, meaning it’s pretty much guaranteed it won’t break in 100, 1000 or 10000 years.

Same for batteries.

Any volunteers for testing the claim?

I mean, if a single distro is what we’re after, isn’t there already ChromeOS?

Not a problem for me, I pay for VPN anyway.
