This has been my experience with customer service chatbots everywhere. At a time when AI tech bros are crowing about the awesome intellect of their models, customer service chatbots just keep getting dumber and dumber, and better at better at blocking customers from getting anything useful.

Hyperscalers: "We're investing more than $1 trillion in AI capital investment". Smug AI adopter: "I'm completely in charge, I just use it for brainstorming ideas". AI isn't a consumer toy, it's a push for systemic transformation that amps up alienation and climate harm.☣️
If you still don't understand that the entire AI project is operated by and for fascists, pull your head out of your ass. These people are not subtle.
people will really insist they have to eat raw ingredience and skip vaccines because that’s “natural” or whatever up until you point out homo sapiens is a marathon walker and then it’s all “if you force me out of my cuckwagen i will literally die”
this is my new belief system btw i’m going chud but from an unexpected angle. ‘driving is soy’
way too many people saying this is good I should always be meaner about nostalgia
tech dudes will keep watching the backlash faced by people in other fields for using AI and thinking "that won't happen to me, I'm special" like they always have done
ok i know i did this as a joke but i actually got it working lmfao this language is so fucking sick man (yes that function returns a u16 only if compiled on a friday and a u8 elsewhen)
hey what was that justification about ai doing medicine again, i forgot
DeepMind's award-winning AlphaFold team is no more.
pov: you’ve got about five seconds left of being a deer
zig comptime is certified bananas. i just discovered that you can define a struct complete with generic fields (and methods!) in the return type position of a function.
god i don't want to write another vst3 implementation but i want to use clap-wrapper even less oh woe oh what a life, maybe i'll do auv2 first
writing some mach-o processing code and to test if it still works with single architecture binaries i just opened a file with vim and manually extracted a single architecture from a fat binary lmfao, didn't even use a hex editor
I’m surely not the first to come to this realisation, but the LLM industrial complex is to tech-life what MAGA is to politics: erode any and all trust in established institutions, people and practices for the benefit of the very few and worst people on the planet in the (poor) guise of freedom.
i'll spell colour with "ou" all day, i'll spell "rationalise" with an "ise" all day, but i outright refuse "sceptical". it's "skeptical", the k goes too hard
@chigbarg.bsky.social hey i wanted to send a message but your dms are closed!
If we ever make a real AI that's actually conscious instead of slop generators, you can be sure the vast majority of articles will be about how it's definitely not conscious and certainly not a person in order to justify its continued exploitation.
it's a small thing and almost certainly doesn't make a difference in practice but zig lets me basically inline functions all the way down to the CLAP callback layer and that really tickles me
it was never about women's sports
My god. The Heritage Foundation, which mercilessly attacked transgender kids in order to protect the "integrity of women's sports," is now attacking the legal basis for women's sports. The transgender student decision is barely 2 weeks old.
ngl, i am super fucking tired of all the people i used to respect turning into braindead slopcultists.
this whole AI takeover of plugins has been so depressing. the KVR Developer Challenge used to be like christmas to me. a showcase of talented developers making innovative free tools for the community for a small cash prize. it's not even every year. and now it's just a slop trough. i'm fucking SAD
