we can be friends!
This was one of my most favourite ComSci side projects. I took a image bitmap read write code project from a graphics class and combined it with a shortest route algorithm from another class. Together I was able to scan a city map, use each pixel as a unit and calc the shortest route. It was so much fun.

I have noticed more bugs and seemingly UI error laziness in my phone apps in the last 6 months. I am sure some of these are from small team developers using AI and pushing though to dev without proper testing.

I still miss the Google Reader for RSS the most.
I had mine tuned perfectly at the time. I tried the alternatives when it was shutdown but none were equal to me. I lost interest and moved on without it.
its a different time now, not sure if I would go back if it was available.

I need this on a hat or T-shirt

AI is a tool that needs to find its 'safe use' first. Maybe its not fully ready for general masses vibe coding .
Its like inventing a the first power sawing tool and we running around seeing what things we can cut. Its make such a quick job of things but makes messy cuts on other things. The problem is this power saw tool is being sold at Home Depot, no license required, anyone can give it a try

I like your style, we can be friends.

Maybe we need industry to rename A.I. to something else to disassociate from the persona. how about: Copy Replicate Automate Paste?
Just joking...all hail A.I. overlord

"The team is already applying the technique to other materials, such as silver and iron"
you know they said it right after.

I believe the academics and philosophers will care about this question. I do.
call me boring or irrelevant, that's fine.

Thank you! Came here to say this.
Its really programmers using an AI tool and auto-complete in an editor is a tool as well.
So soon we will have to draw a line: when is AI writing code and when is it a tool? will it always be a tool? if one single prompt writes an entire bug free project, is that AI writing code 100%?

We got really excited and went on a HR spending spree, when we came back to the office we were ...like...er.... oops.

I like this idea. instead of placing the screen far away and making it oversized to fill the eye, maybe have seating for 20-30 people and make a smaller wrap around screen.

I am getting real tired of the AI doom and gloom articles, even if its true could Slashdot please branch out and diversify?

I really like the idea of a diner profile following me around but one I get to edit. for example:
- I will know what I would like to drink as soon as I am seated
- we prefer quite tables over window seats
- I dont need to be asked "how is everything tasting"
- Please always provide extra napkins for our children

"but it's like telling people that calculators make mathematicians obsolete"

I have never heard this analogy applied to AI and programmers. Perfect.
