He has continvoucly morged his rel, branch back to add a new featue over Timn.

No, I'm not having a stroke. That's just the best that their best AI can do, and nobody gave a shit to even check that the giant diagram that explained everything in a simple graphical form... you know... didn't look like an AI image generator tried to generate text.

And 35 months ago and 34 months and 33 months ago...

It isn't necessary to have a wide scale double blind study to show that a paranormal claim is bunk. Either they can tell the difference between how it sounds even when electronic test equipment can't, or they're full of it.

Unless something is very, very wrong, your cable is not a filter, so it's not going to have any impract on sound. The same can be said for guitarists. They go on and on about shit that makes absolutely no difference to the tone of an electric guitar.

There have also been more than one guitarist with their own legendary distinct sound preferring to play the cheaper version of their signature guitars versus the higher end versions, typically because the cheaper ones are lighter and sound the same.

Most of the "because AI" headcount reductions were complete bullshit, or a "realignment" of the companies towards the AI future. Assuming it ever actually happens. I mean, they spent billions and promised hundreds of billions more.

Now, I certainly wouldn't want to work at a company that's making a shitty SaaS replacement for a dBase III application or excel spreadsheets or something. That sort of thing is doomed no matter how you look at it. If AI does even 5% of what they're replacing, you just ask Claude to do the thing you need, even though what you need is actually already 100% implemented in software you already own but were just too lazy to see what that button was for. If AI goes tits up, then it's going to take one of the major cloud players along with it, probably Microsoft with the way they're run these days.

Better option is to just have an AI strategy of "No". Best option is to just don't computer.

Yes, and in some ways they were right. What they got wrong was that its replacement was also the internet rather than everyone going to back to... BBSs I guess.

They said AI was replacing developers last year. Extrapolating, by this time next year AI will be completely gone and it will take two humans to do the work of one human.

They definitely see you as surplus.

Every advancement put forth by Big Tech ever since the dotcom boom has been about advertising and marketing. Their goal is to optimize personalized mattress sales.

You only have to do that after your first thousand billion years.

It won't even let you rest in peace.

Like who is the market for this?

A trillion dollars... for whatever the fuck this is.

And what happens when you die but a week later they come out with a new frontier model, and then a week later the model you were written for has been shutdown because nobody is using it any more because it just wasn't as good as the DEAITH-39oB model and it also kept praising hitler for some reason.

This is the future I always wanted.

But it's totally worth it to meet our KPIs. Stonks.

The goal of Microsoft is to keep turning record profits after they saturated the market 30 years ago. Want to make sure your endpoints are up to date on patches? They now have a subscription for that. Want to avoid installing crap like this in the first place? They have a subscription for that too.

If it dropped your cloud spend by 90% you were doing something dumb in the first place, so I don't think you're a credible expert in whatever it is you claim to be doing.
