A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Why would you not want to use all the tools available to be as efficient as possible?
The point of work is not efficiency. If you don't own your work and you can't control your data, you are more vulnerable to exploitation. You may not be compensated fairly for your efforts.
I get what your saying but on a personal level I enjoy being able to complete tasks as efficiently and quickly as possible. This is divorced entirely from compensation. Who doesn't?
Sorry, but I disagree with your statement that means are divorced from compensation. There's this guy, I forget his name, but he made a really big fuss about how workers need to control the means of production. Ideally we'd work using whatever means we like and be compensated fairly, but that's not the nature of the markets.

That book isn't taken seriously by the majority of the educated people. Your literally arguing against making your own life easier. We were talking about AI tools before you went off on a commie-tangent.
Haha, having to spell out what you thought was obvious. You must be replying to vibe arguing!
There's a lot of dev teams that have to use local because their code is proprietary and they don't want it getting outside the network.
