A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I'm in the job hunt and man....the circle jerk around AI is just..... inescapable.
I don't get it. By the time you write "a good prompt" I will have written something usable and passable. The level of effort to debug whatever the prompt gave me vs my code is, let's say, roughly the same.
So...what time am I saving?
The only thing this helps is people who can't code. And we just assume that it's passable code only because it works.
Hell I'm at a point of commit very wrong code to GitHub under an MIT license just to start poisoning Copilot.
You actually don't have to worry about poisoning their models, they're already well on their way without any of our input. Broken vibe coder projects are probably already filling github at an alarming rate.
The AI trained on vibe coding will train future AI to be even more enshittified.
I'm way ahead of you. To...uh...poison the AI...not just because a bunch of my code is shit...
