"They are not in a thought bubble YOU are in the thought bubble"

I am absolutely BTFO'd, you got me.

Would solve a lot of problems in the US, actually. Being financially incentivized to gleefully lie and spread misinformation at the expense of others should not be protected speech.

Needless to say I have been looking for a way out of this job (and likely career) ever since.

What's going to happen is people who give a shit are going to get filtered and self-select out of the job, and then the entire field is going to be dominated by dunning kruger AI maximalists. The "AI will replace engineers" is true, but for an entirely different reason and entirely different way than most people making that argument think.

But hey if not, actually cool.

This timeline is straight ass.

Any dev(b)logs for it? Always curious how these games handle multiplayer and what engines/stack they use.

So the exact same thing PG is guilty of in the article?

He disagrees with the opposing statement, gives a lazy counterexample with 0 evidence that introduces at least two major assumptions that do the the entirety of the work for his "argument", and then takes another few paragraphs to effectively say "just grow exponentially, bro".

There's nothing to push back against except vague hand-wavey nonsense. PG is washed and the level of discourse in the thread matches the quality bar of his post, so I'd say it's pretty appropriate.

Either deliver on your fuckass promise to end the world and replace everyone and make everything shitty forever or fuck off.

Shit or get off the pot already, clowns.

I'm absolutely fucking exhausted from this bullshit discourse after almost 4 years of it at this point.

These AI companies need to stop bloviating and administering verbal self-fellatio and either replace everyone or fuck off already. I don't even care which it is anymore, I just want to be done with this hype cycle and move on with my life/career.

Why is this alternative better?

What about the threat of unemployment due to not meeting AI usage/output metrics? I've personally found it has effectively coerced me to stop trying to understand pretty much anything, and instead just send out whatever passes basic test to "keep up".

Unless you want to just play bad-faith word games and say that "technically it's still not stopping you" in which case yeah man you got me good job buddy.

I don't want my life savings tightly coupled to a young and hyped up technology which is currently being wielded in the most antisocial way possible.

Simple as.

But the AI hypebeasts are incapable of differentiating that from an anti-AI stance.

Do you have infinite money?

I guess people can dress it up as business savvy and market timing or whatever pretentious lingo they want to make themselves feel better about it, but it's really just scamming by another name.

But we're in the Scam/Grift Economy now anyway so I guess everyone is trying to get theirs while they still can, and I guess that's what we're seeing.
