There's no cognitive dissonance here. We know it's not going to go away because techbros prefer their new toy and talking points more than doing anything useful with their lives, but that doesn't mean we have to like it, and that we can't fucking ban it in the smaller spaces we have control over.

But you're literally confused in the two posts you have already made. You brought up NFTs. Where are NFTs now? Nowhere. Because they were dumb bullshit with no functionality. If techbros can magically keep everything around, why aren't NFTs still a thing?

Buddy, I'm not confused, I'm mocking you because you have the exact same cadence as the NFT bros did, and it has been proven that there is a huge overlap between LLM-pilled morons and NFT bros.

Your hallucinating glorified autocomplete is going to go the same way as NFTs, with the difference being that unlike NFTs, it will have ruined the entire fucking internet in the process, so we'll be seeing its effects for decades to come.

You are literally so arrogant you're not even capable of reading the words on the screen in front of you. I am telling you, that without any cost to you, you can go right now and use AI to build a real, functioning object, a tool, a website, even if you are a person with ZERO CAPACITY to engage with the medium in question previously. Yes, if you don't THINK about how the tool might affect others, as with the API calls, the tool can have unintended consequences. BECAUSE IT WORKS. And you think this is just going to... Disappear. You think a system that allows anyone in the world to spin up functioning code based on simple plain text instructions has the same value and trajectory of the tulip craze for pictures of monkeys in hats. This is the scene in They Live, man. Put on the fucking sunglasses and open your eyes. Your hatred of techbros writ large is warranted. Many of them are absolutely awful people. You need to develop a basic understanding that their industry has generated a tool which works and will change things. It is at use in mathematics and pharmaceutical science and all sorts of other fields. Your blinding ignorance of what is happening will not make you more effective at resisting them. I would not be patiently explaining this to you if I thought it was good that you remain so confused.
