Also if you are gonna steal art for your pitch deck, which is admittedly a time-honored tradition, nobody cares if you do it the old-fashioned and eco friendly way: Google Image Search.

None of them need to ask ChatGPT - or anyone - for ideas! That’s not the fuckin‘ problem here. Time and technology are the problem. But ChatGPT can’t solve those problems either!

I do not get the assertion that AI is good for ”generating ideas”. All the content and systems designers I know have ideas coming out of their eyeballs. Entire design documents for features that nobody asked for. Backstory plot twists and synergies soaked in their very souls!

When I rode the light rail into town, my train was full of immigrants speaking so many languages, and y'know what? It was fantastic. I miss my commute, because it wasn't Hell. Bicycle & light rail; exercise and community and peace. Except during the World Cup. Then we'd argue, but only about Messi.
🚨 BREAKING: Senator Tommy Tuberville just went full nativist on the Senate floor, telling a sitting U.S. Congresswoman to “go back” to Somalia and smearing immigrants as terrorists.

Yeah. But so many artists in our industry were the first adopters and experimenters with GenAI. In the early days it was just a tool. And I think for a lot of devs, it still is and they don't have the same ethical concerns. They may not know there even are ethical concerns.

In a world where Gen AI wasn't being trained on copywrited works without consent, data centers weren't causing ecological harm and inflating the cost of electricity and tech CEOs weren't looking for ways to replace their workers with it, these would be entirely valid uses of AI imo.

this, you want the golden egg but what happens when every egg turns out rotten because it was not made good?
So, he's pushing for AI, even though isn't helping at all, because of the possibility, that maybe, somehow, possibly, they will find a great use for it that no one has found yet? Or I'm missing something?
Because if it's that, this looks like he fell for a scam and doesn't want to admit it.
