Jack Dorsey has figured out how to make chat worse by adding LLMs.

This matches my experience. Leadership gives us a weekly "AI is amazing, it's world changing, we're using it for everything". Every project using AI is at least six months late. My team gets praised for using it effectively but we're the team that turned it off. We had an SLA violation because Copilot hallucinated a service we don't have that it claimed was down and we can't convince ops that the service literally doesn't exist. Any amount of time AI could have saved me has been swallowed up tenfold by everyone else having access to it and I hate what work has become.
I feel this. These tools are viscerally unpleasant. Meetings used to be the thing I didn't look forward to but chatting with an AI is the new low point. Reading AI generated text is the written word equivalent of nails on a chalkboard.
They are adapting to the times, they banned LLMs.
So is there a residential proxy blacklist I can run on my firewall? Any action I can take as an admin to put a stop to this?
Never, has made my programming joyless and boring. If it wasn't a requirement to keep my job I'd never touch it.
Why do workers dislike being charged to rent scab labor from their oppressors?
May it fail and take Accenture with them.
That would be amazing.
#1 seems like the worst possible dystopia. We should shoot for #2 and have #3 as a fallback. The Culture is the worst dystopia I am capable of imagining.
For me it's the advent of LLMs. AI is boring.
Another reason to criminally prosecute the AI industry.
The goal should not be to include something because there is a use case but because the use case so stunningly obvious that this should become part of what every browser must implement.
It is clear this can be done without being part of the standard as is shown by the fact that it is already done. So it has no place in the standard.
This is probably going to sound alien. Socialism is ontologically evil. Regardless of outcome or positive it produces there is a moral obligation to stop the state from doing something like UBI.
It is non-obvious that adding an LLM to a web browser makes anything better for the web browser user.
I do not want text generation in the web API at all.
I firmly believe AI is a surefire path to UBI. It's made me radically anti-AI.
I'm not an AI booster at all but democratizing a bleeding edge tech is the worst of all worlds.
This seems like the sanest solution.
I don’t get all of what’s going on but from the outside it seems like the xLibre guys got a lot of negative attention for doing that.
But why would someone pay you for that?
Just like all subscriptions this kills my interest in it. Tech is only interesting if it isn’t locked in a corporate data center.
Why is it obvious they are here to stay?
Good thing that "“The Internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.”.
How can they be this oblivious?
AI doesn't change anything. If it was worth doing it is still worth doing.
I do not think it is fair to label a fear of communism or socialism as irrational.
And we had people believing he was telling the truth long after he changed course. His lie cost us all.
The rightful share is radically lower than it would be set democratically. Taxation above a certain point is a form of oppressive injustice.
I love everything about Orion except it steals focus when I click a link in e-mail or another application. Does anyone know if there's a way to change the behavior to be like Safari's background link behavior?
