AI 摘要

New software releases? Who cares. Learning new CS concepts? Whatever. Studying for the next interview? Job probably won't even exist in a year. Working on that side project? No one will care because it's just another addition to the mountain of slop, and the guy bagging your groceries can do it. Everything is done and cooked with AI now. It's exactly like that feeling once you enable cheats in a game; sure you can do anything, but everything is meaningless now. Our entire purpose and joy in life has been taken from us.

Yeah a bunch of ppl putting vasoline on their webcam to use A.I. that "proves" that they understand the nature of a $200k/yr job and then preceding to eat the best meats and live in the prime real estate while adding nothing to the area in which they reside feels like the barbarian horde.

Yes. And math too. I think there's lots of beauty remaining in understanding these things, and using that understanding to craft things cleanly rather than as slop, but no one will pay us to do it, so we will never have the opportunity to do it.

I feel this way, so I shut my startup down. Not sure what I'm going to do next but I'm hoping it isn't so computer dependent. The reason I got into computers was unregulated opportunity and freedom and it's just the opposite today.

Find something that has meaning to you.

Ditto. I've started reading recently. The last time I seriously read a book was High School. It's rather enjoyable, and I have a newfound appreciation for public libraries.
