    I’m not even steeped in the depths of it. I’ve got friends who are using MCP and agents that can modify files on their own and work through problems over time and self-learn on your existing code, etc.

    It’s crazy and makes my head spin. Many of them were super skeptical early on but the tools that are being developed are absolutely BONKERS.

    No AI developer presents it like it’s static and in its final form. None. Not one of them. They are all racing for market share. We’re seeing leaps and bounds of improvements in the shortest of timeframes, even in the open source sector.

    And this zealotry doesn’t even take into account that…humans make mistakes too. Much more than AI generates ‘slop’, there are a million garbage artists out there that produce complete trash. There are millions of people on the internet generating bad advice (Where’s Mankrik’s wife?).

    I’ve seen people with this same attitude, attribute things incorrectly to AI slop because someone used an em-dash somewhere in their reply. So not only can’t the detractors actually tell what’s AI or not, their fundamentalist attitudes lead them to perceive every mistake as “AI SLOP”.










  • You have the ability to choose an insurance company that doesn’t use those things. Hell, you even have the ability to self-insure in most states with enough collateral. Nothing is being forced on you. Hell - you EVEN have the ability to hire an in-person insurance agent – did you know that?

    Sure, it’s not as cheap - but you’ve always been able to do this. You are not being forced like you claim, your own ignorance is what betrays you to the options you have available.

    And what other people do with their ingestion of AI is their business, not yours.

    Without AI, all of the things you say they are doing WITH AI were already possible. They could ALREADY spy on employees. They could ALREADY lie and manipulate people. All AI does is make it happen on a wider scale.

    So instead of attacking “AI” “AI” “AI”…why not attack the things that are being done wrong, rather than the fact that it’s AI?
