#3I can relate to this, and the point about costs resonated with me in particular. I wonder how this will evolve in the future and how soon.

#4I like the AI images, the style is nice and is well executed especially the mirror reflection one, it accurately, well, reflects what pet projects become. But, I disagree that they're monstrous just because they get big.

#6They'll become cattle projects you don't know the names of.
Like an LLM listening to you curse at software, fixing it/creating extensions etc., installing them, and you're not even aware.

#9There's a lot of good descriptions and observations on this article. But I don't like this language that just assumes we all use AI, we've all pulled away from the code. It all seems to be part of the collective brainwashing and psychosis that says "it's a new age now, everyone is doing it this way."

Lots of us are still coding. A lot of the beloved infrastructure all these vibe-coded rocket rides are built with is still being hand coded by humans who care and want to build solid, good things.

#10AI slop text, AI slop graphics, and a particularly obnoxious "oh well everyone's using AI now, no-one writes any more because they don't need to" tone.
Absolute trash.
Please can we have a filter to keep the AI slop - and all the metaslop around it, articles about the guts of LLMs - off the feed?
