Worse, it’s a person who believes whatever random shit they find on the Internet.

I’m boggled by the idea of a person who is savvy enough to know about lemmy but still uses a dogshit, customer-hating client like uTorrent. Use Qbittorrent, it’s been the best for a solid 15 years. When you were annoyed by the ads, you should have immediately gone looking for a different client. The learning curve between torrent clients is a flat line.

Wait, like OG UT, against humans? That shit was the best. Nali Cow forever

Sable, so I have a hoverbike and also I can kind of fly, and there are no enemies in my world. Good thing I played that in between now and Half-Life Alyx.

Like AI, those “yams” are super fake, so still not missing anything

Fucking easily? “Claude, convert these Postman JSON collections to JMeter load tests with switchable environments based on this shared config file we already use for our existing JMeter tests” when you barely know Postman OR JMeter and you can still do it in half the time of a developer who knows both.

If that’s another language to you, how about “Making people print this job application PDF, fill it out, scan it and email it to us is insane, old-timey silliness from the turn of the last century. Convert the PDF to a fillable form, and make sure the fillable fields are properly located between the lines of the field names they correspond to” and then it just does it and now applicants can apply online and you didn’t have to pay an expensive human to do menial one-off work in applications they don’t really know.

There’s a ton of dumb, time-wasting shit you don’t have to do anymore because you can just make the robot do it. It’s not all just straight plagiarism and stealing artwork and dead Internet propaganda-bot garbage. You can use it for good or evil. The power generation and inefficiency are still unsolved problems, the super aggressive build-out arms race is pure idiocy and we absolutely need to slow this whole thing down, and I’ll never forgive these greedy fucks for ruining the PC components market every few years, first crypto now this, but there are use cases that allow people to do things they couldn’t otherwise do.

Properly used, AI is a force multiplier. Improperly used, it’s a resource-burning race to the bottom, but if you can’t think of legitimate uses for a general-purpose software robot you can tell to do tedious stuff in plain language and it’ll just do it with a bit of guidance, then I don’t know what to tell you.

“Have you know?” sounds like something a drunk AI would write
