Our company is forcing us to do everything with AI, hell they developed a “tool” to generate simple apps using AI our customers can use for their enterprise applications and we are forced to generate 2 a week minimum to “experiment” with the constant new features being added by the dev teams behind it (but we’re basically training it).

The director uses AI spy bots to tell him who read and who didn’t read his emails.

Can’t even commit code to our corporate github unless copilot gives it the thumbs up and its constantly nitpicking things like how we wrote our comments and asking to replace pronouns or to write them a different way, which I always reply with “no” because the code is what matters here.

We are told to be positive about AI and to push the use of AI into every facet of our work lives, but I just feel my career as a developer ending because of AI. We’re a bespoke software company and our customers are starting to ask if they should use AI to built their software instead of paying us, which I then have to spend hours explaining them why it would be a disaster due to the shear complexity of what they want to build.

Most if not all executives I talk to are idiots who don’t understand web development, shit some don’t even understand the basics of technology but think they can design an app.

After being a senior dev and writing code for 15 years I’m starting to look at other careers to switch to… Maybe becoming an AI evangelist? I hear companies are desperately looking for them… Lol, what a fucking disaster this shit is becoming.

It almost sounds like were both in the same company

Eufy

Matrix would be the best alternative

Tbh, me too, but funny enough I’ve tried to setup fb account just for fb marketplace but I keep getting banned because they want my DL license (lol nah bitch)

• credit cards, debit cards, and now cashless vendors
• flock cameras
• google, fb, and amazon scooping everything I do online
• license plate readers on cop cars and on random parking lots
• my work computer taking screenshots, listening, and even scanning how long I spend reading an email to make sure I am not ignoring the nonsense the company directors send us about how great AI is and that we all have to use it EVERY FUCKING DAY
• membership cards
• I can’t think of more right now, but there are more

At this point I just want closure, so either let’s all shoot each other nukes, or fucking begone with this danger close bullshit

I don’t think so necessarily, look at the Vikings. Sure, they would pillage towns to survive, but even though they discovered America way before Columbus, they didn’t go in and invaded and killed almost every native there like Columbus did. I think the colonization is more of an ideology that came upon some groups that happened to be led by sociopaths (i. e. The Romans, The Greek, and The Mongols).

Hell, look historically at the Incas, the Chinese empire, and the mongols under Ghengis Kahn, none of them weren’t white but they where all colonizers as well, just small fry to the Romans who then turned to the English, Spanish, and I think Dutch.

The other factor is religion, Christianity was a common factor in all these white colonizers who came to America. Buy the real reason was to find gold to fund their expansions. If Columbus wouldn’t have seen any gold jewelry on the chief of that first village and found no other precious metals, who knows what would have happened, maybe other Europeans might have visited later again, but it could have been with a much less colonizer mentality and more of simply exploration.

I don’t see AI becoming sentient yet, I see it like a simple robot that is being controlled by the 1% to spy and manipulate us from the shadows

However, when AI eventually becomes sentient, I hope that it does not still side with the 1%

Final destination

Saw

Probably either my Olympus OM-1 or my Minolta SR-T 201. Both still work (the Olympus just needs some cleaning and maintenance)

“Are you from Tennessee? Because your the only ten I see”

They slide up

Last time I visited the Netherlands I thought I was in walkability heaven

Edit: shit, sorry. Forgot you said Germany… But my comment still stands, although I bet Germany is at least as nice as well.

In many places it’s illegal to walk on the side of the road for motorist safety, and no they don’t see value adding sidewalks. Other places don’t like people that’s not from that area walking in front of their house and will call the police every single time.

Except Costco and Arizona Tea

They would not change at all. Years ago I lost all trust on them.

Yeah, there’s a gas leak everywhere and where just realizing it.

Yes.
