I said you’re free to hate it but it’s not going away

You told me it was the Virtual Boy, a failed product that didn’t even last a year

Suddenly it’s all, “It’s been around even longer than you say” and “there are reasonable use cases for LLMS”

Yeah, sucks to be a moron doesn’t it?

Bet you won’t make that stupid fucking claim ever again

As far as your gameboy analogy goes, handheld devices definitly didn’t go away. It wasn’t a fad, and it’s still here… compare the game boy to your fucking phone and realize what a dipshit you still are

Yeah, sucks when you dig yourself this deep into a hole isn’t it? Feel dumb yet? Consider it a life lesson

Deep Learning has been around 14 years. LLMs 6. AI Agents 4.

88% of businesses use it. State Governments are striking deals with AI companies to implement it into their systems.

And the people who have been the earliest adaptors of this technology, the people who know the most about it because they’ve been dealing with it the longest? IT and Tech.

But yeah, I’m not even a software engineer right? What would I know?

Except literally all of that and it’s exactly what I told you… but nah, clearly you know it’s the next Virtual Boy and it’s going to die off any second now

lol

“it’s a fad”

I like the truth, yes

oh, sorry… this was not for you

Well, that’s embarrassing

Self driving cars being dangerous, idk, that’s your claim not mine. YOu got a source to back up that they’re causing death and destruction?

That’s not what the film is about though… spoilers ahead

I don’t know how to prove I’m a human… cock shit asshole with fucking toejam stuck in my dickhole… is that something AI would say? Does that work for you.

Anyway,

https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/quantumblack/our-insights/the-state-of-ai

In 2017 about 20% of companies were using AI. In 2025 that number was at 88%

“The share of respondents saying their organizations are using AI in at least one business function has increased since our research last year: 88 percent report regular AI use in at least one business function, compared with 78 percent a year ago. At the enterprise level, the majority are still in the experimenting or piloting stages with approximately one-third reporting that their companies have begun to scale their AI programs”

“The use of AI overall is broadening within organizations. Respondents increasingly report that their organizations are using AI in more business functions. More than two-thirds of respondents now say their organizations are using AI in more than one function, and half report using AI in three of more functions.”

“By industry, the use of AI agents is most widely reported in the technology, media and telecommunications, and healthcare sectors.”

“Many companies, particularly smaller ones, have yet to integrate AI deeply across their workflows… Nearly half of respondents from companies with more than $5 billion in revenue have reached the scaling phase, compared with 29 percent of those with less than $100 million in revenues”

Shill - a deceptive accomplice who poses as an enthusiastic, impartial customer to trick others into buying a product or participating in a scheme. Today, the term is also used more broadly (often as a verb, to shill) to describe anyone who promotes something for pay without disclosing their financial ties.

So how am I getting paid to promote AI if I’m not in the industry?

If you’re 37 and you still call people a shill that’s just sad

Weird you both think I’m an AI shill but also I’m not in the industry

“By the 2020s, conservatives were dying at significantly higher rates than liberals, with the gap concentrated in internal causes (for example, heart disease, cancer and stroke). The divide since 2020 is substantial: while only 0.2% of ‘very liberal’ respondents died of internal causes between 2020 and 2022, the probability for people who identified as ‘very conservative’ was 1.14 percentage points higher (P = 0.021; 95% confidence interval (CI), (0.18, 2.11)). This gap is not limited to deaths from COVID-19 and is not reducible to demographic or geographic differences between the groups, nor is it a pure function of ageing: previous cohorts’ death patterns in older data did not show a similar correlation between health and ideology before 2010.”

I’m not a historian but I believe the sad truth is that they saw them like animals; capable of being trained to do jobs but not smart enough to understand more complex issues or choose the tasks themselves

Like a dog. You can train your dog to guard your house or hunt birds but you probably don’t trust your dog to vote

It’s fucked up

we’re going to need a source on that

This is what I’m talking about…

Deep Learning had a major breakthrough around 2012 with ImageNet. What we know today is already 14 years old. It wasn’t as good as it is today, or as accessible 14 years ago, but it was around. And people really think the world is just going to decide to forget we invented it any day now

You say this, but I got banned from a sub for being a corporate shill for trying to explain to what I’m pretty sure was a 13 year old kid that AI is not going to dissapear and that it’s not just a fun toy used to make shitty TikTok videos

I would explain what AI Agents were and how they worked and what they did and I was told I was a troll that like to suck my bosses dick… and then I was banned

My job? Software engineer. Been one for over 20 years.

Those same people that called me a troll, a shill, a company man that liked to suck my bosses dick; the mods that banned me; they are all probably here right now talking about how stupid it is that people don’t listen to experts…

It’s a great tool… and it’s only getting better.

But more importantly, it’s not going away. You can hate it until the sun explodes but this technology exists now and the world isn’t just going to forget about it. Your best bet is to figure out how to use it efficiently so that you don’t end up the guy that pushes shitty AI code and instead the guy who was able to get a lot done by using AI in a meaningful way and produce good work

yeah, I looked it up thanks to your post… you are correct. It is not technically a mental illness it is dysmorphia.

Which, hey, I learned something, so thanks

But the point stands. We can argue all day about what is, “normal”, but it’s not typical to think you’re a man trapped in a womans body and yeah, there might be something slightly wrong if that’s the case. But that’s ok, there’s something slightly wrong with all of us.

Which, again, opens the argument about “normal”. Is it “normal” to have anxiety? I mean, lots of people do have it. Is it normal to be transgender, lots of people are.

But again, my point is, don’t hide from it, love who you are and accept it.

Yeah, I’m a bit fucked up but that’s OK because that’s what makes me, me; and I love being me. I’m me and I’m proud!
