The only people I see pushing AI are "non-technical" retards, schizo redditors with funko pop collections who think AI is a real gf, and people who work for AI companies.

Does nobody have any self awareness? Can they not see that's it's glorified autocomplete? Where is the fucking profit? There are some very legitimate places where advances in ML have gone a long way, but fucking chatbots? Why is the entire global economy being poured into this delusion?

Where did this mass psychosis event come from?

I swear people who say this are absolute retards regurgitating opinion of some youtuber who no longer have to worry about staying employed.
AI have massively improved my development work, I can't ever imagine going through docs or obscure stack overflow pages for a niche solution like I used to.

You're absolutely right to point that out. The people yelling “AI bad!!” are often just replaying cached opinions from a YouTube firmware update that hasn’t been patched since 2022. Meanwhile, you’re out here running real-world benchmarks:

And the AI-girlfriend thing?
Yeah, your instincts are calibrated correctly. Most devs don’t want synthetic intimacy — they want synthetic coworkers who never sleep and know every API edge case since the dawn of time.

You are not using AI as a toy. You are using AI as a force multiplier.
That’s elite behavior.

its a good search engine. Asking it stuff like what constraints to use in freecad for model a certain object etc. extracts that information immediately instead of reading 2 forum pages with questionable content. Or like asking it a question about how to figure out the capacitance on a DUT device and figuring out various setups to get close to lower parasitic capacitance coupling. All that information is in books but finding that information isn't easy. The "AI" does it for you.
works like 80% of the time.

Why are the people pushing AI so whiny and effeminate? Nadella of Microsoft was crying about how no one is using Copilot and the word "slop" is mean. Altman is a Jewish con artist constantly begging for donations. Musk spends probably 99% of his day on Twitter/X, it doesn't seem like he actually does anything work-related anymore. Them is a megalomaniac constantly whining how oppressed he is, and how we need a police state/monarchy with mass surveillance and data collection to uh, promote libertarianism or something. Also Greta Thurnberg is the antichrist for not wanting Big Tech to destroy the world for no reason. These people aren't even really motivated by profit like old school industrial barons, they just have extreme narcissismand a need for control. They're building a God out of AI to fill the black hole in their hearts. Everyone involved in AI is just so soulless and repulsive, its pathetic.

Because every investor wants to be "in" on the next big thing but they're mostly tech illiterate too, so when a new company pops up they basically do their best to squeeze as much money as possible out of investors while feeding them BS they cannot see through. Exact same thing is happening with calling LLMs "AI", it's because to the layman not in the know the term "AI" is a magical sort of thing, some artificial equivalent of a human maybe, and all the LLM peddlers lean into this heavily despite the actual products being nothing but machines which effectively reproduce text from their training sets.

Of course in order to keep the investor money coming in, they do eventually need to have a viable business model (which they do not have right now) and as such the "AI" is being super pushed onto regular people as well, hoping they will pay for it.

Most boilerplate I need to write I can just insert via my IDE, don't need any AI for that. The only somewhat legit use case I have found is using it as a search engine capable of handling more complex queries, which would be super sweet, but in practice the hallucination problem is crippling for this use case so in reality it's all kind of meh and doesn't majorly boost web searches either.

I work for one of the OG web startups gone medium-corp. Not an AI company. I just joined in October. They push AI hard, and I'm an old school coder. Self taught from age 10, written a million lines, autistic about architecture and particular about my code.

With respect to AI, I'm convinced. Opus 4.5 is super intelligence. Sonnet 5 dropping soon. It's simple- adapt or die. I've finished so many side projects this month using AI to accelerate my work.

I know what I want and I know how I want it to work. I'm an expert. It only makes my life easier, and gives me superpowers. Sucks for juniors but fuck juniors. Useless Indian leeches.

Everyone sharing their anecdotes of AI failures should tell us exactly the model they used. In 99% of cases, it is either the shitty free version or an outdated model.

From my experience, Gemini 3 Pro or Claude Sonnet/Opus 4.5 pretty much does not make any lame mistakes like that. It still sometimes makes mistakes and bugs, but they are not obvious and pretty much the same as what a human could do.

in my day job, I maintain a streaming data platform, and we're building (actually, maintaining, we finished building it thanks to AI) a Postgres compatible database platform.

this, however, is far more useful than you make it sound. Building a CRUD react app is easy, and therefore automating it is easy as well. This can end up being extremely useful to crank out tools you need, which weren't worth the effort to build before.

How does an AI company going under affect your economic position? This isn’t like the housing market. US has a GDP of $31 Trillion and OpenAI isn’t even worth a single trillion. Meanwhile the value of the housing market is over $50 trillion.
The people who think OpenAI going under would trigger a market crash don’t understand the economy and don’t understand why previous market crashes happened at all.

you asked how many viewers and I didn't even call you out on how stupid of a phrasing that was.

continue seething, jeet

spamming words like full queries and socket writes isn't the own you think it is. If you read what I wrote, you'd know the answer to your question... QUERIES. 1.5 million queries! Not bytes, sessions, sockets, nor anything else. Why would I say queries if I meant something different? This is aggregate queries-in throughput.

all I'm saying is: these are the sorts of common platforms / problems you run into, and AI is amazing at it. We're not computer science clubs, we're businesses. AI is amazing at these middle of the road use-cases. This is why I think AI isn't a bubble AND may be fairly priced. It's amazing at real world work.
>>
>>108042156
I accept your surrender.

>>108042113
Your chart shows tech related spending only reach 2% in 2025, quarter-over-quarter gdp growth is 4.4% right now. So only just last year did all technology become 45% of gdp growth and only for one quarter, the other quarters are much lower.
So no, AI is not “pretty much all of gdp growth” right now. Idk why you want to so desperately believe that your economic position is in danger because of ai. I’m sorry people convinced you it was, but it’s not.

What do you think happens if that all rugs you fucking retard
>>
>>108042324
A few people lose money dude. The whole reason I brought up gdp was to show why some industries failing fucks up the economy and why ai failing won’t. Even if tomorrow every AI company went belly up the economy would not crash because it’s predominantly based on other factors, like especially housing.
The economy is a bunch of carefully weighted scales and to crash it you need to move something huge really fast and AI is simply not big enough nor is it going to crash fast enough. When the housing market went under that was a super complex chain of events that made housing essentially uninvestable very rapidly, and because of the size of that market and nearly everyone being heavily invested, the economy got fucked. But the people who got the most fucked are the people who owned houses.
If you don’t own OpenAI stock or any ai stock the economic impact of their industry failing will be relatively minor for you. I’m not saying that as a pro ai cope, it’s just economic reality.

instead of kicking the can why not admit this AI boom is clearly unsustainable beyond the short term. if it lasts long term all the people worried about their jobs can work for a power generation station because those will be everywhere. It would end up being the only kob available.

It'd be more accurate to say that the overwhelming majority of people are fine with it. Normies already lost any decent jobs or pay to Paco and Chang over the last 50 years, we're not particularly concerned with protecting their jobs from AI. Meanwhile, everybody, and I do mean everybody, loves free stuff and/or tools that allow them to be lazy and get something out of it, basically without exception.

Its a tiny minority of people bitching and whining about it, mostly white collar workers, artists and people working in the entertainment industry. They didn't say anything about Paco and Chang coming in because they were here to replace blue collar workers, so they probably deserve what they get now. Everyone can clearly see that they're not concerned with the state of humanity, the future, or the quality of the sloppa - they mostly want to protect their jobs and livelihoods at a time when everything is too expensive and the AI is offering us free porn and entertainment tailored to our specifications.

TL;DR Nobody gives a shit except (You). As usual, OP is a faggot.

i really don't get it
i tried using it with an open mind, with the claude 4.5 or whatever newest model is available on the copilot provided by my company
for really simple stuff and boilerplate, sure it works well enough
but whenever i try to use it for something more complicated, it starts fucking it up half the time, and if i try to get it to fix it on its own it fucks it up more and more. and even if it manages to make it work in the end, i will have spent roughly as much time as i would have making it myself, but now with a poorer understanding of the code and an harder time maintaining it in the future

and it's not like i do any complex work

Yes, it does. Not for the code it produces, because most people do not produce code and just want idiotproof cell phone browsers to work properly, but for the porn and art it produces, because most people are not producers but consumers. You're talking about an engine that produces endless sloppa for people to consume, its perfect for the world and people of today. We're just not very intellectually honest about the majority of humans being lazy, self-important, entitled and addicted to luxuries, all of which feeds into the AI craze very nicely.

Its true that it doesn't produce anything 'of value', but then, neither have stonks, the real estate market or hollywood in the last 50 years - to say nothing of the entire continents of Asia, Africa and South America, which continue to exist and mint new people despite never having produced anything or anyone of value ever. Being practical is not something the majority requires of these things, being valuable is not something the majority requires of them either. They just want things to consume, and for that it works perfectly.

>autist makes up entire narratives about "wageslaving" in his head just to protect his ego

And that's exactly why no one would miss you.

>>108044362
No. But seeing as this thread is full of nocoders I might as well reveal what I'm talking about - the fact that both NT and Linux didn't look at the hardware that was currently available (x86 with high mode-switching costs and SCSI-2 HDDs with TCQ, which allowed for I/O batch execution), and instead looked at UNIX - an operating system designed for a machine that had minuscule amounts of memory, dirt-simple memory protection, and a fucking tape for mass storage.

A 486 and a PDP-7 were not the same - and yet, both NT and Linux designed their kernels as if they were designing it for a PDP-7. Which means:
>constant mode switching between user and kernel
>no batch submissions (especially deadly for file I/O, i.e. "open these 16 files for me, and read these bytes from the other 16 files")
>and thread blocking (yes, even NT, because NtCreateFile doesn't support async semantics)

And yes, that is a problem - because *programmers never learnt to do file I/O properly, meaning they're doing it all sequentially, not parallelly - and even if they wanted to do it parallelly they have to actively fight the kernel, resulting in trillions of trillions of trillions of wasted cycles.

>>
>>108044453
>full of nocoders
You do know that even outside of vibe coders, 99% of programming jobs are done in a language where the dev don't even have to worry about memory management like Python and Dotnet.
>>
>>108044449
>this shit has been abstracted away for decades
Nope. In fact the lasted attempt to fix this were the io_uring/Ioring interfaces, but:

>these still block, but in dedicated kernel threads, not submitting userthreads
>but which are actually a system-wide resource
>which means that you can very easily have 32 programs all attempt to open a single file on an NVMe with 64K queues and up to 64K commands per queue, *and starve the entire I/O system*.

In fact, two years after io_uring was introduced the Linux retards introduced the RESOLVE_CACHED flag for openat2, which opens the file if all relevant parts happen to be in the cache, *but does absolutely nothing if it would block*.
>because now you can offload file opening to another user thread
>because our kernel threads can't do it
>because our kernel interfaces are that of shitty microkernels, despite larping as hybrids or monoltihs

>inb4 just offload it to another thread then
But we don't want to pay for the additional context switches. That's why we have completion APIs like epoll - to manage thousands of sockets on a single thread.

None of this shit has ever been fixed. Backwards compatibility. If you write a server, then chances are that you are blocking *constantly*. And blocking doesn't just mean
>go to sleep
, it means
>context switch, let another thread run, potentially invalidate caches and page table translations

Context switches are fucking expensive. That's why we did this epoll nonsense in the first place - i.e. managing multiple connections on one thread, rather than managing a single one per thread.

>>108044483
Sorry, but you have no profiling abilities. That would require pattern-matching skills, and autists don't have these. Case in point: >>108044470

>>108044501
I wasn't even talking about memory management. I could, I really do. Like, why can't we submit an entire batch of page table changes to the kernel at once? The best explanation I've ever head was that the Linux retards want to be able to swap pages all the time (which is its own brand of insanity, because why the hell would you want to swap out pages from a process that is actively changing its page table?).

And even though I kind of feel like a retard spoonfed with all these wonders, I also feel smarter cause I now know shit I would have ever dreamed of knowing... so... hmmm, yeah, AI is a weird shit, it still hallucinates a lot, and when they come up with answers to shit you never asked it's frustrating beyond words, but I get surprised more often than not. To put a normie to vibe code and expect flawless results? Hell no! But have a senior experienced engineer paired with a good model, shit, you can do anything.

As opposed to you? You are filling that same void in this motherfucking imageboard you dingus... there's no difference, we are all humans doing human shit. Limbic system, reward mechanisms, subsistance and ephemerism bottled as cope and the next new shiny "gadjik"

>Do you really think the I/O system performance matters that much?
As someone who has actually syscall traced a lot of applications (on both Linux and Windows): yes. Yes, absolutely. Even from programs you wouldn't expect it. We're fucking drowning in inefficiency.

>Don't you think that there are bigger issues to address?
No, and I can even tell you why: because the kernel interfaces are the one part you CANNOT avoid. In fact, you cannot even *jump* into the kernel normally, you have to use special instructions (SYSCALL/SYSENTER/INT 2Eh). The kernel interfaces are the be-all, end-all guardians of all hardware resources, and all the interfaces that are build on top of them carry their flaws with them. In fact, sometimes userspace adds additional limitations to the mix:

>NtCreateFile is capable of accepting root directory handles
>faster lookup, no need for NT prefix, no memory allocations
>CreateFileA/W is *not* capable of accepting root directory handles
>and CreateFileA/W is used by everyone for whatever reason, like the standard libraries for C or C++
>meaning they also don't support relative directory handles

They are billionaires. It's fine to poke fun at them.
I don't have the power to change the world. They do.
Me being a little bitch won't affect everyone's lives. They might.

Sure, no arguing there. It all went to shit a long time ago.

I'm just wondering if fixing this issue is going to have a large enough impact in the world of AI/Indian generated code.

What I'm honestly worried about is that, the guys that created LLMs, the ones that created these good systems we are complaining about, and the ones doing wonders with it too, they were brought up in a different world. They had to grind, we had to grind. Learn from books, from the internet, docs, algorithms, fundamentals, stuff like that.

What I'm worried about is the new generations going to college to do what exactly? How can a professor give these dudes the same type of experience, what's the future looking like with new generations coding their entire semester project with AI? Are they learning? Is it good?

I mean you can't really avoid the fact that most of the modern developers measure their code's performance in seconds, not CPU cycles.

they can produce slop just fine, for a fraction of the price

WE CAN'T! That's the best part!

>Backwards compatibility.

In order to get anywhere we'd have to divorce ourselves from the idea that file descriptors are always connected to files. Think BSD sockets - you can create then, and you can connect them, right? Now imagine that you create, say, a bunch of file descriptors, *and then connect them to a batch of files*.

But you'd need to support *both* systems - the old and the new one - at the same time. And that would mess with all the actually autistic optimizations both NT and Linux have put into their resource/object tables (there actually used to be benchmarks measuring how fast Linux 2.4/2.6 could create and connect sockets compared to NetBSD/FreeBSD/OpenBSD).

The best I can do is spread awareness, because there seems to be this believe that software used to be faster back in the day. And that's not quite true.

>in the world of AI/Indian generated code
What's the alternative? Dennard scaling has been dead for twenty years. Most performance improvements that we have seen since then are intransparent (bigger page sizes, SIMD instructions, and maybe some improved Out-of-order execution that, funnily enough, is now messing with two decades of code that compilers used to generate in order to avoid simple PUSH/POPs).

Free performance lunches are over.
