AI is a useful tool for coding as long as it’s being used properly. The problem isn’t the tool, the problem is the companies who scraped the entire internet, trained LLM models, and then put them behind paywalls with no options to download the weights so that they could be self-hosted. Brazen, unaccountable profiteering off of the goodwill of many open source projects without giving anything back.

If LLMs were community-trained on available, open-source code with weights freely available for anyone to host there wouldn’t be nearly as much animosity against the tech itself. The enemy isn’t the tool, but the ones who built the tool at the expense of everyone and are hogging all the benefits.

If the investments you’re making are beyond your risk tolerance - you fucked up.

Ouch, right in the profit margins.

You underestimate people obsessed with garbage trucks and sanitation.

Fine, tomorrow then. Just enough time to replace the insubordinate.

Women don’t get paid to raise children today either? What a stupid statement.

This user poll suggests that around 97% of respondents (at the time of making this post) will not renew

Hahaha, I’ll be pleasantly surprised if 10% of them actually quit.
