The other day ChatGPT contradicted itself in the same sentence so yeah, they're right

Who of you fuckers actually read this article and went not like "duh yeah let's upvote this dumbass clickbait headline"

It's not overrated.

Using the "Mistral instruct" model to select your food in the canteen works like a charm.

Just provide it with the daily option, tell it to select one main-, side dish and a dessert and explain the selection. Never let me down. Consistently selects the healthier option that still tastes good.

"Half of tech workers" is exactly the expected number, completely unsurprising. The absolute null hypothesis. Why? Well, since the days of ENIAC the number of programmers doubled roughly every three years. That means that at any point in time, half have less than three years of experience and thus no idea what they're doing. In the past roughly decade, maybe one and a half, most new devs went into webdev which explains the javascript ecosystem, now AI is getting a taste of that.

That depends heavily on the framing. AI right now is overrated, it can do a ton of stuff, but rarely anything useful. AI in the (near) future however will eat all our jobs and everything else.

It's always worth keeping in mind under what restrictions current AI still operates. ChatGPT never saw a compiler or a shell, never could test its code. It's pure book-knowledge without any practical experience. Yet it still can produce quite good code, at least for small problems. What it might be capable of once it has access to a compiler and runtime environment could far surpass what we have today. But it's speculation, since we don't have that yet.

AI is not overrated. We just don't have it yet.

Over half of all tech industry workes don't know how to use AI, I guess? I'm sure there's some percentage of people whose jobs are advanced enough that AI will not help there, but I bet my kidney that it's not more than half.

10-20 years ago boomers scoffed at people who used Google instead of reading manuals or figuring it out by themselves.

Even though its true. These articles still make me laugh thinking about how they're all written by a popular girl in class when the new prettier girl shows up. Sure Becky, we get it, Kelly dated a 38 year old and snorts like a pig when she eats.

Yeah, and my moms a tech worker, and just tried ChatGPT for the first time today. I wouldn’t go listening to her opinion on the topic, but she’d also not offer it with no knowledge or experience of it.
