I created a summarizer for that

Okay. I prefer to read Thomas Pynchon's writing. Y

Thats a really bad website too btw, design and functionality. Maybe use your brain before you lose it.

For a 100x engineer with 40 yrs exp that you claim to have, you make some real basic high schooler projects lol.

I already know how to code proficiently in more than 20 languages, that's the result of 40 years working in the field and being a 100X programmer. The summarizer is just a tool for myself, I build tools every day to simplify my life, not for sale, not for monetization, like tracking gym schedules or pickleball rallies with my friends, like kanban boards for my wife, they solve problems I have, not you, so that's enough for me and rewarding in itself

And AI does it all for me while I sip coffee and play mahjong (built by AI of course)

Saying you do those things when it’s AI doing them for you is akin to saying I cooked a meal while picking up fast food in a drive through line.

I mean this sincerely; the arrogance of calling yourself a 100X programmer is astounding. I don't know how you managed a 40 year career with that kind of attitude.

I was a 10X programmer and now AI has multiplied that by 10X you do the math if you can, or ask your LLM of choice

AI can be a multiplier of both your intelligence and your stupidity, arrogance is a byproduct

The amount of ego and hubris you're displaying is sure something.

I havent met a single honest person who doesn't admit that their use or LLMs degrades their ability to do the same things without them. You're being dishonest.

Hubris.

Another green name posting edgy comments. It's just embarrassing and you're wasting your time.

What was edgy about asking someone to read a Thomas Pynchon essay on the word Luddite? Id argue their weird comment about people who don't like AI being luddites is more annoying and discriminatory.

AI maxxers know they're doing harm to themselves by overusing llms. The way they react so defensively when you point it out to them lets you know its real. Everyone wants to pretending like they have superpowers and are evolving into "100x" engineers, but in reality they're devolving.
