Almost perfect analogy.

The kitchen appliance being a janky, unreliable blender, being mis-sold as an instant Michelin-star chef robot, in your analogy.

Being consistently wrong, and/or actually stupid doesnโ€™t matter when you are repeatedly lavishly rewarded for failure by a broken market system, while the consequences of your reckless decisions are externalised onto the rest of society.

None of his own ideas has legs, sometimes literally. Nobody has ever needed stuffing into a locker more than this creepy, talentless, greedy, soulless fucking dork.

More specifically, โ€œgenerative AIโ€ is just shoddily regurgitating results of previous machine learning. The problem is the egregious mis-selling of the word โ€œintelligenceโ€. Fuelled by reckless executive greed on the demand side, driven by a delusional Silicon Valley death cult on the supply side.

Should be a multiple based on how many buzzwords the business idiots in managment parroted from Scam Altman.

More like anti-linters, randomly inserting stupid things out of view, breaking everything.

God forbid there be a โ€œgapโ€ between someone having worked relentlessly for years to develop a valuable, difficult skill, and another that just typed some vague shit into a text box, and couldnโ€™t even tell the difference in output.

Why tech billionaires want a dictatorship Guest host Jon Fortt and The Nerd Reich author Gil Duran on the rise of tech authoritarianism.

Why tech billionaires want a dictatorship โ€” & why most of Silicon Valley will quietly watch democracy burn.

Itโ€™s far easier and faster to make a mess than to clean it up, or put together something that isnโ€™t just a mess in the first place. This should be obvious, but greed overwhelms everything in our failing system, and blinds the business idiots frantically trashing everything.

Against Optimization We are bombarded by messages telling us to worship the gods of efficiency and optimization, life hacking our way to prosperity. It's a trap. Resilience is a smarter, sturdier goal.

There is nothing meritocratic about our current system failure.

AI coders think theyโ€™re 20% faster โ€” but theyโ€™re actually 19% slower Model Evaluation and Threat Research is an AI research charity that looks into the threat of AI agents! That sounds a bit AI doomsday cult, and they take funding from the AI doomsday cult organisatโ€ฆ

Maybe start by refusing to use their fascistic AI slop IP expropriation machine, under the very same paragraph talking about digital IPโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s extra frustrating to those of us with a background in design/typography that used em dashes before the bullshit machine expropriated them.

Donโ€™t. If they canโ€™t be bothered to write anything of value, why should you bother to read it? The whole thing is so stupid.
