It's humorous to me that I can do the work of an AI with nothing but a coffee and an occasional sandwich and yet they talk about AI as if it's some sort of magic hack to productivity.

What they don't like is paying money for the work, that's all that matters to them.

You work for sandwiches and coffee, and not for a decent salary?

I get paid a decent salary for my expertise and this wild thing called remembering what happened yesterday. My point is my compute is powered by bananas and coffee, not gigawatts of energy and all of the RAM.

From the POV of your employer your compute is powered by your decent salary, not bananas and coffee. If that goes away you’d be a fool to keep pointing your brain at your employer’s problems.

Thus, your compute is significantly more expensive than AI. Thankfully your taste is also part of your package deal, and is where you deliver real the value over an LLM.

If you don't care about humanity and prefer the machines then you're a soulless ghoul like the OpenAI workers, should sign up, you'd probably get a fat bonus for joining.

insults won’t convince people to agree with you

sometimes people just have different belief systems than you, and that’s actually okay
