The motivation behind this religious zeal is a WORLD WITHOUT WORKERS.
All the times these fuckers tell us we can’t have worker’s rights, we can’t have UBI, we can’t have universal healthcare, we can’t have subsidized housing, etc., because it’s unrealistic remember that they crashed the world economy in a vain attempt to create 95% unemployment.
I mean… Everything is changing for the worse.
That’s been happening since way before AI
Yeah well they certainly upped the tempo with this bullshit.
I mean it does change everything in that you quickly find out who is paying attention.
Yup. Ed ZItron is a programmer (I guess) and he had another programmer on his show and they both agreed, AI is extremely helpful in finding them clients they want to work with. That is to say, clients who are constantly asking for full AI-integration are going to be garbage to work for, clients who please say do not use AI in any of your workflows or include it in the product in any way are going to be great to work for.
He is not a programmer, he’s actually into PR.
And Ludic, the guy he had on, said exactly the opposite.
AI is very unhelpful because it excites the terrible customers you don’t want to deal with, and puts off the good ones you would have been happy with.
Either way it ends the possibility of a fruitful exchange of Information.
Listen to the whole thing. It’s in there a good deal after your bit.

By their fruits ye shall know them.
Faith without works is dead.
Doctorow coined enshittification and is tirelessly fighting it and advocating for legislation against it.
you’re aggressively ignorant. easy block.
Am I expected to trust you?
Trust no one.
I do potatoes in my instant pot but leave the water in, it just gets absorbed. So the salt is effective in that case. I salt the potatoes themselves and toss them before adding the water, too, so they should get reasonably seasoned.
Mashed, though.
Wut
