throwawa14223··on BBC director general and News CEO resign in bias controversy
That statement shows a strong left wing bias. You just happen to agree with the BBC.
throwawa14223··on A new threat: Being replaced by someone who knows AI
This wouldn't be so absurd if AI worked in even trivial cases.
throwawa14223··on It's insulting to read AI-generated blog posts
I should never spend more effort reading something than the author spent writing it. With AI-generated texts the author effort approaches zero.
throwawa14223··on ICE Will Use AI to Surveil Social Media
TBH that sounds amazing.
throwawa14223··on After the AI boom: what might we be left with?
ChatGPT is just as useless as a shitcoin and just like a shitcoin the sooner we stop burning electricity on LLMs the better.
throwawa14223··on Microsoft lets bosses spot teams that are dodging Copilot
You wouldn't have to do this with a tool that was beneficial.
throwawa14223··on Microsoft 365 Copilot's commercial failure
Who wants an LLM in their office suite? Of course this is a failure.

Enshitification implies there was a good stage to fall from.
throwawa14223··on Instant Checkout and the Agentic Commerce Protocol
Chat windows and voice assistants are a terrible user experience for the average person. This doesn't change that.
throwawa14223··on Britain to introduce compulsory digital ID for workers
IDs don't help because the moment the ID is useful the government will find a way to hand them out to migrants.
throwawa14223··on Trump to impose $100k fee for H-1B worker visas, White House says
Then it's time to start seizing these companies assets. American corporations exist to benefit the US and US people.
throwawa14223··on Trump to impose $100k fee for H-1B worker visas, White House says
The H1B program isn't for exceptionally smart workers.
throwawa14223··on Trump to impose $100k fee for H-1B worker visas, White House says
A broken clock is still right sometimes.
throwawa14223··on Samsung confirms its smart fridges will start showing you ads
When tech stops working for us we should fire that tech.
throwawa14223··on ABC yanks Jimmy Kimmel’s show ‘indefinitely’ after threat from FCC chair
I believe they changed when the government put pressure on social media during COVID. I think that caused a huge attitude shift among the right.

Firefox also shipped their battery draining ai feature and they don’t have identical motives.
throwawa14223··on Ohio senator introduces 25% tax on companies that outsource jobs overseas
This is not nearly punitive enough. If this causes companies to leave hit the traitors even harder.
throwawa14223··on Claude Code: Now in Beta in Zed
Does that button cause them to cease using LLM technology? My objection is on ethical grounds.
throwawa14223··on Claude Code: Now in Beta in Zed
The inclusion of an unethical tech is a deal breaker.
throwawa14223··on Claude Code: Now in Beta in Zed
Yes. I don't want to give support or market share to a company that is using AI as it is an unethical technology.

Zed used to be a good editor but it is increasingly LLM infested.

It's getting harder to find IDEs that properly boycott LLMs.

Specifically I'm looking for licenses that bar loading the code into LLMs. Github is feeding open source code into Copilot and selling it to people and they need to be stopped.
throwawa14223··on GPTs and Feeling Left Behind
So you're taking an easy task, formal logic, and replacing it with a more difficult and time consuming task, babysitting a random number generator. How is that a net-positive?
throwawa14223··on GPTs and Feeling Left Behind
This exactly mirrors my experience. I can't see the whole LLM/GPT thing as anything but another blockchain level scam. It isn't zero value it is actually a negative value as the time it takes is an opportunity cost.
throwawa14223··on Apple lacks strategic vision
Apple doesn't need to be in AI because no one needs to be in AI just like no one needs to be in shitcoins.
