#12It's just the start, it's about to steal the joy of everything in life pretty soon.
That’s just because people have been so indoctrinated by capitalism that they only find joy if they’re being worked to the bone. They have forgotten the joy of not doing anything productive.

#17'AI Stole the Joy of Programming' is not quite the title that blog post has.
We need an AI tool to digest the articles for us to return a signal for click bait.

There's something very "late stage capitalism" about pouring torrents of capital into tools that can replace human ingenuity, artistry and creativity while starving stuff like infrastructure, space travel, etc.

I assumed from the actual title that there wouldn't be any content worth reading and stopped there. It's funny to call the false HN title "clickbait" but I did click that one and wouldn't have clicked the other.
I mean I clicked on this one, but I would've double clicked the original title. I like a little spice in my life.

#20I don't agree. Copilot/etc is kind of worthless for me, it creates so many issues that I've never bothered to work with it. AI is awesome for solving issues, asking it questions about code, asking for possible solutions. But maybe I'm just fast at writing code that actually solves the problem, so I don't need an AI to code for me.
I think it depends, it's quite good for prosaic code, and when you have a lot to auto-complete and macros are not specific use case.
Other than that, having chat with o1 and sonnet inside the editor is pretty good ngl
