Cool. I'm so tired of management huffing their own farts about AI.

Really don't understand why people are so happy letting llm do everything for them.

I get a kick out of figuring out how things work, be it my car, a podman container running under nixos or flashing a price of hardware to gain further control over it. An understanding of action and concequence really gets skipped entirely.

People from my work happily let llms throw code together without any understanding of the how's and whys (I work in unrelated areas to programming / coding) and it just baffles me. Even one of my workplaces used a llm to make a Facebook ad, and so clearly it became an internal meme (and probably outside of work).

The Australian government is embracing llms and its baffling my mind as to why, ATO, ServiceNSW and probably another stack all gobble this shit up. Its in their training programs (images, text) and in your face while working. Actually absurd in my eyes.
