Ah yes trustworthy source 80.lv

Look into this source for like 2 seconds, it is a marketing research company, not journalists, with extremely suspicious and likely generated team. https://80.lv/contact-us#audience https://my.linkedin.com/in/arti-sergeev the "Head" of 80 level doesn't even seem like a real person, definitely not a real picture.

So you’re saying the 80.lv “team” are AI generated? Wouldn’t that be ironic…AI making shit up about AI.

"the only winning move is not to play"

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 38 points 6 days ago (5 children)

Absolute fucking MORONS have taken over the world, and are wrecking it.

IF we ever get our country back, we have to go forward with a national strategy that we no longer have to be polite to treasonous MAGA scumbags. Everytime they open their mouths they should be shouted down with screams to shut the fuck up.

We should never have to tolerate the opinions of stupid, violent traitors.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They'll all pretend they were never MAGA, why are you still going on about Trump, we're trying to look forward, etc.

This is exactly how the GOP disowned the Bush II Administration with the Tea Party.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

And that's when we have to scream the loudest, and absolutely refuse to give their gaslighting any credibility at all. If you were a Republican during this era, then you are a MAGA Traitor, racist, rapist, incompetent, intolerant, violent, stupid, pedophile.

And you ALWAYS will be, forever.

Could give em the Hans Landa treatment

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 5 days ago

Works for me. Brand a Swastika, or MAGA, or PedoCon, or Traitor, etc. Maybe give them their choice.

MBAs are mortal enemies of software engineers. Couple that with what one former CEO of mine said: "engineers have very well tuned bullshit detectors" and you arrive at the problem...

I’m already there. I don’t hide my revulsion.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This happens with any disruptive tech. In the 80s, Old white CEOs were computerizing everything without understanding computers. 2025 every grey CEO throws around A1 without having the first clue how it works.

throws around A1 without having the first clue how it works.

Just open the bottle and pour it on your well-done steak?

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Probably a reference to secretary of education calling it A1

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago

I see. I can't keep up!

We can send them to work camps like during the Depression.

What a great idea to test this on paying customers' live production websites.

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I'd believe them if they said they tested small- scale locally. Even good software/designs can implode when they get scaled up, and I doubt this was good design or software.

[–] Capernaum@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yeah I don't trust the source, but I've heard a ton of articles saying they've been replacing people with AI.

We cannot have the internet be centralized on central hardware with so little oversight.

[–] Dragonstaff@leminal.space 4 points 5 days ago

The thing is that Amazon needs to get broken up way more than Ma Bell did. Most people have never heard of AWS before, but it's crazy to have one company own so much of the internet, even before you get into their stranglehold on internet commerce (which also should be broken up).

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 48 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I know there's doubt as to the validity of the claims. I only want to say this: when "AI" takes jobs, who is there to plug things in to make the "AI" machine go?

Sounds like Amazon fucked around and found out.... Allegedly.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

A handful of senior engineers or developers. And then we're even more ducked when they retire or die, because the no-one is hiring junior engineers or developers

I really want this to be true, because not only I believe that would be the immediate outcome, but also because it would be hilarious.

But a somewhat credible source that's not wrapped in "allegedly" and old stories would really help drive the point home.

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Amazon has laid off or scared off the vast majority of their most experienced people. Those that weren’t laid off quit over stupidity like “RTO”. I don’t doubt that their underpaid junior staff and Kool-Aid drinking upper management decided that AI is a great way to replace all the lost knowledge and expertise. As with the downfall of civilization, this will get much worse before it gets better. It will be interesting to see how huge companies react to another companies enshittification actively damaging their business and reputation.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

amazon also is more burned-out heavy than other tech companies aside from the tesla, i saw all those reviews and the peoples post on reddit.

DevOps cannot be automated away. So stupid.

I've been waiting for something like this so we can see who's heads roll when AI fucks up. I figured we'd see doctors and lawyers losing their licenses first, but maybe it'll be this. So, who shoulders the blame when a program that can't learn from its mistakes fucks up a quarter of the internet?

[–] mudkip@lemdro.id 5 points 5 days ago

Probably why it crashed then

I wish they'd replace the executives first.

[–] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 6 days ago

Is there 404 reporting on this yet?
