I think it’s important for anyone who (completely understandably) checked out on AI the second the crypto/nft/metaverse/snake oil chuds started pushing it to realize that, in at least the domain of software development, we are very much living in a scenario where the snake oil actually works

there’s an uncomfortable nuance probably worth diving into about the ethics of using generative AI to ship code versus generate art assets versus clone a person’s voice versus push slop to the algorithms. I truly don’t know where the line is. it’s frustrating

are AI coding tools capable of delivering useful work: verifiably yes is there actual real demand for AI coding tools: verifiably yes is that demand sufficient to support the economics: a lot of people would sure like to know!! is AI ontologically evil: to be determined by the RoboWars
