hey, many of us dislike both equally! (specially the push to become the only alternative)

hard disagree. life with plain text logs and daemon init scripts was so easy and nice. But we can’t have nice things…

jokes aside, is weird enough to look appealing to me, and probably functional.

If the animal is bigger than my pinky finger I would probably just run the other way, so I hope I don’t get asked this.

This doesn’t mean that at that size or smaller I would win, just that we can start talking about it.

honestly, it has the word AI somewhere in their last year activities, even if they don’t do it themselves.

Investors are dumb as fuck, they know nothing about anything other than keywords and hype trains, so with the AI keyword they might go crazy on this.

I keep saying it, the stock market is a mistake for humanity, it doesn’t make sense to put a gambling house in the core of the world economy.

there is a risk of pressing “stop” instead of snooze or not hearing the alarm at all, I’m with OP on this one, I tend to go 2 or 3 depending on how tired I am, but never 1 xD

oh man, reading the comments fill me with fear, as I just ordered a new computer after stretching my old laptop for 8 years or so. I was super close to getting an AMD but went with Nvidia in the end… but so much bad juju in the comments for Nvidia too…

“somewhat old” person opinion warning ⚠️

When I was in university (2002 or so) we had an “AI” lecture and it was mostly "if"s and path finding algorithms like A*.

So I would argue that us the engineers have been using the term to define a wider use cases long before LLM, CEO and marketing people did it. And I think that’s fine, as categorising algorithms/solutions as AI helps understand what they will be used for, and we (at least the engineers) don’t tend to assume an actual self aware machine when we hear that name.

nowadays they call that AGI, but it wasn’t always like that, back in my time it was called science fiction 😉

The internet is wild, people spend most of their time in small echo chambers and they think that is the whole internet.
