The very thing that if they could would replace us with it.
I find it depressingly hilarious that this is the line that makes people furious. Not the previous decades of exploitation and corruption.

So because everyone you know who uses “AI” treats it that way, that necessarily means literally everyone who uses “AI” must treat it that way? Wow, such flawless logic.
Some of us see LLMs for what they actually are - tools. Tools that can be useful, but are also dumb as fuck. Claude is fantastic for writing boring, boilerplate shit like unit tests and reasonably good at finding bugs in my code. But I am never going to take credit for its work. If for no other reason than “I wrote this” means “any mistakes in this are mine” and I am not going to take the blame for the dumb shit Claude does.

“AI” used to mean “artificial intelligence” as in “a thing that is intelligent”. Which disqualifies LLMs because they’re dumb as fuck; their ability to generalize is garbage.

This is why I use Gentoo. I get exactly what I ask for and nothing else. The core install comes with nothing but the bare minimum, and if you don’t want a thing you just don’t install it.

“This project contains blobs” and “this project can be linked to blobs” are not the same thing. The kernel source code is completely FOSS.

If LLMs (since AI is not a thing that actually exists) were banned tomorrow, I’d be pretty grumpy that I had to go back to using the garbage fire that is modern search engines. And I’d be grumpy that I had to go back to writing boilerplate code myself. And then I’d get over it and move on with my life.
You: “Nobody who uses AI treats it like a tool, they treat it like an employee they can claim credit for.” Me: “I treat it as a tool.” You: “Wow, you won’t shut up about AI.”
Wow, you are just the best at reasoned arguments!
Kindly, fuck right off. (I’m blocking you, so any response you make won’t be for me.)
