However I can’t help but notice some things that look weird/amusing:
- The exact time that many programmers were enlightened about the AI capabilities and the frequency of their posts.
- The uniform language they use in these posts. Grandiose adjectives, standard phrases like ‘it seems to me’
- And more importantly the sense of urgency and FOMO they emit. This is particularly weird for two reasons. First is that if the past has shown something regarding technology is that open source always catches up. But this is not the case yet. Second, if the premise is that we re just the in beginning all these ceremonial flows will be obsolete.
Do not get me wrong, as of today these are all valid ways to work with AI and in many domains they increase the productivity. But I really don’t get the sense of urgency.
