> On this day, 33 years ago, Bram Stoker’s Dracula was released in cinemas. Starring #GaryOldman, #WinonaRyder, #KeanuReeves and #AnthonyHopkins it was an Oscar-winning, critically acclaimed success and one of the most revered #vampire movies ever.

@mirabilos @82mhz the post is against it - that's why I boosted it.
"But if I avoid doing everything that's hard and outsource all the thinking to AI, then I will pretty soon turn into a lazy and stupid blob who isn't capable of thinking for himself anymore, and that's a fate I want to avoid at all cost."

@82mhz and that's just a slice of technical issues; there are far more 🥲

@82mhz @cinimodev
I'm still processing my thoughts on Dom's post. It hit me real hard, because it touched on points I observed and figured out too around Christmas, when we did that AI Hackathon at work.
But Dom's post, and yours too, go beyond that. I didn't get to the point where I felt guilty or maybe hollow, because I hadn't done any work. Maybe that's because I did it for the experiment, or maybe it's because I always knew that I'd out it down after two weeks. But I can imagine how that feels. I felt like an imposter for the first few years when I started working and it was rough. I only managed to break out, when "that one" coworker started asking me questions about the code and asking for my opinion. (I guess today I have become "the one" at work.) 😅

@82mhz urgh, fucking slop, fucking burning down the planet for nothing, relying on fashtech built on stolen works. Do not do this.
@stefano I’m disappointed that you even boost this.

I'm at #FOSDEM. If you want to chat with me about #Conversations_im or #XMPP come by our Jabber/XMPP Realtime Lounge in AW 1.124. We also have lots of stickers and other merch!
If you want to learn about #UnifiedPush, my talk is today (Saturday) at 16:00 in the FOSS on Mobile dev room.

@82mhz beware that things are not so rosy when people decide to use genAI for addressing issues in complex projects, or trying to solve complicated issues. Reading AI-generated thousand-line code submitted for review often makes me feel like my brain is melting.
Imagine someone submitted an AI generated image with extra fingers and different eyes to you for review; you might want to try and understand why those things are "wrong" and "broken", but there's no why, they just are, that's how the thing works. And of course you're often told afterwards that details aren't important, the big picture is, and the big picture is human-shaped. After seeing enough misshapen hands and extra legs, your brain stops paying attention to them, it's just background noise. When a customer finally comes complaining about wrong number of fingers, you notice you've lost your painting skill; the number of fingers is right, because you're a human and know how to count, but the drawing doesn't really look right anymore. Kind of.
