@aesthr It is fine. I can give up anytime I want.

@aesthr P.S. everybody codes launches in 5 hours
https://everybody.codes/events

May be a good time to manually code again :)

@aesthr its like asking people about scrolling short form videos in 2020

@aesthr I have to use it at work during the day. I do feel my coding skills slipping. I stare at the code, unsure what to type. I have started doing gamedev and math coding on the weekends with zero ai help to practice again. Fuck i hate ai. I hate the way it feels. This will be a slow battle.

@aesthr sounds just like a bunch of folk in the office with me. in all cases they're the special boy that can use it safely

@aesthr the boosters think we live in an echo chamber but do not realize that hearing from boosters is FAR more radicalizing than hearing from fellow skeptics.

@aesthr The "the risks are overstated" and "I just like it" responses are definitely making me think of people who, in this modern era, decide to take up and maintain tobacco habits despite all the well-known info about its effects.

The more I read the more bleak it gets. Fucking hell.

Y'all need a friend to take you aside and tell you you have a problem.

@aesthr @baldur it’s so good that companies are asking us to become addicted to these poisonous machines in fear of losing our health care. Definitely no bad consequences there.

@aesthr
I only use heroin at work, on my day off it's plain white yoghurt from a hand-thrown pottery jar.

So I'm fine. I'll be fine.

@aesthr yikes. And this (among other reasons) is why I refuse to have anything to do with AI, so far I've managed to tell my work I won't touch the damn thing and they're not forcing me to (for now).

@aesthr it's deeply sinister in that way (and of course many others). Grim indeed.
