The cornerstone of genAI hype is "AI for thee, not for me"

it's filled with tech people who are fucking morons thinking that everyone else is really dumb and loves slop and their algorithm will generate infinite content for the masses, making them rich. yet they don't consume it themselves, and aren't smart enough to recognize the cognitive dissonance

anyone who thinks unsupervised AI content is going to replace [insert creative output here] shouldn't be in the HN comment section, they should be using ChatGPT to generate comments they can engage with

instead they're going to get mad about me calling them a fucking moron in this comment. which, like, why get mad, you can go get an LLM to generate a comment that's much nicer and agrees with you

Actually, their handlers should just be better monitoring their internet usage

Do you think the people who make TikTok or Clash of Clans (or, hell, the Daily Mail) use their own products?

uh yes? Was this supposed to be some clever "gotcha!" that ended up being really stupid? Might want to run your clever comments by ChatGPT before you post next time chief

Well, you're wrong, I know some of them.

oh word? i know a guy at Microsoft who doesn't use Excel, that means nobody at Microsoft ever uses Excel and they're just peddling crap to the dumb masses

Your argument is weak.

the fact that you're engaging w/ a random human on the internet proves that my argument is strong

if you don't like it, go talk to Claude about it

Claude will even use proper punctuation & grammar which i'm not doing. it's LITERALLY an objective improvement over this comment. why the hell are you engaging with this crap?
