Eu tenho fé que a onda anti-IA vai trazer de volta alguma forma de contra cultura tipo a dos anos 70, cética quanto à ideia de que tecnologia é sempre um avanço, contra o sentimento da inovação como uma força civilizadora inevitável

I saw the dot coms crash from a front row seat. AI is running out of money way faster.

AI Data Centers Are an Even Bigger Disaster Than Previously Thought

An investment manager realized he made a crucial mistake — and that his grim prediction about AI investments may not have been cynical enough.

i looked at the MNT laptops and the org seems good and wholesome and the laptops are genuinely tempting, but also Framework hired actually good designers and MNT looks like "make it look open source. no, more open source. no, that's too open source"

LLM AI exists to crush labour. That's not even my surmise, the people paying billions of dollars to fund this stuff are extremely open and explicit that this is their goal.

There are no ethical use cases for LLMs at this point in time. Maybe when the bubble has popped thoroughly. Not before.

This is true. And that coders commonly use LLMs to code tells you everything you need to know about why software generally sucks. It’s incredibly common for devs to have little to no respect for the tasks integral to their own job.

Brendan Keogh @brkeogh.bsky.social · 1d

I still think the most accurate and consistent way to think about generative AI is that, in every instance, people exclusively use it for tasks that they don't have any respect for or give a shit about.

Fucking Google.... I updated Chrome and it automatically pinned a widget for using their LLM to the title bar. That screams of a desperation worse than a 50 yr old man wolfcalling 20 yr old ladies like an immature fratboy during spring break.
