Future dystopia: Our systems are offline, and we don’t know what to do. Typically when we have a problem, we ask the system how to solve it, but it says it’s unavailable. We have tried asking each other, but nobody knows what to ask exactly.

In the future we'll all just be unreliable sparse caches of the AIs

Time to rewatch all the TOS episodes where Captain Kirk turns off the AI/mainframe.

Except for the sexy ones, he tries to turn those on.

“Have you any idea how it feels to be a Fembot living in a Manbot's Manputer's world?”

Hopefully we'll have more than one company who can supply us with AGI. We can just ask another AGI to fix the downed AGI.

It's a winner-takes-all market. The winner gets all the computational resources, gets more money, and repeat.

I assume if one company is close, there are many who will also be close to AGI. Computers move fast but humans controlling are slow.

Just showed me how much I depended on ChatGPT for regular expressions

It shows me how much I used it to help rationalize my health anxiety.

I can easily imagine this. I have to have a piece of paper on my desk in front of my computer. I write my priorities there. If I don't, I find it extremely hard to concentrate on or prioritise anything. What's problematic about depending on Jira this way is: When Jira is down, you can't go to your supplies stash and get another Jira. Programmers can work when the office Internet or GitHub is down, because git is dece…

Because how often is the internet down? If you’re in an office you’re absolutely supposed to be getting multiple upstream connections.

In the last year, if I accumulate all service outages at GitHub and at my office’s ISP, I think GitHub was out of reach for more than a couple of hours five times.
