is anyone else experiencing becoming stupider, less able to retain and process information?
>>110086908Kinda but that's just depression getting worse. I just see no reason to work my brain now that the value of autism is on its way out.
>>110086930I really don't think this is true. You can get a lot more impressive things done in much less time the more you know about the subject matter. Normies still use AI for mundane shit like having a personal pocket friend for the most part
>>110086908Remember how many of your friends' numbers you could remember before smart phones? If you're using AI, it's going to be a whole lot worse.
>>110086996maybe at the moment but look up the bitter lesson. growing power of the compute and better models every x months will outperform humans, even with knowing the subject matter at hand. trying to direct them will yield a worse result rather than just describing the desired output and letting it figure it out.
>>110086996Before, a manager had to wrangle a dozen of autists to, say, improve a product, now he can spawn some agents that will do literature search, brainstorm, contact relevant people, simulate, document and design the final product. Thinking is not necessary, at least on the technical level.It already affects non-SWE engineering roles.
>>110087213I would add to this that for a lot of products, the fact that this is possible to do now agnatically also potentially means the product itself is not really needed. It's so interesting how perceived value of something or a type of labor has changed so much in a short period of time.
>>110086996Cope.
>>110086908the brain can only retain so much info, this is why people say they start to forget things as they get older.the reality is that people use their heads less as they get older since they get into a pattern in life.you know that feeling you get when something is on the tip of your tongue but you can't remember it?try to.the pain you feel is your brain making more memory for new information to be stored.
>>110086908Don't worry it will get worse with time.
>>110086908You become dumber as you age.
>>110087690perhaps age causes a person to think less resulting in your twittergraph unsourced likely gay image.
>>110087690you forgot adding the experience factor to your plot>oh noez, im 5% less performant when im 60 than when im 40who careswhat makes the difference is how you use that cognitive poweryou can have a supercomputer running a parallelized infinite loop outputting "nigger"what would be the value of it? (except for copious amounts of edginess)
>>110086996>KEEEK programmers are worthless nowSo is being a sperg>n-no I don't think this is true you see AI still needs me
I really didn't think it was gonna be like this bros...
Read a book, nigga
>>110087690That shit's mostly due to formed habits becoming crystallized so the brain doesn't have to use as much energy and can just automate shit. It's an energy saving feature
>>110090117I'm trying to, one a month, but just how difficult it feels to do due to attn. span decline is making me feel bad and like i want to avoid it. What are you reading now?
>>110090130The Bible. One about game theory and another about foundations cyber sec. Finished yesterday one about prompt "engineering".What do you read? Maybe the genre or topic isn't good enough to keep you hooked
>>110090251cool, that all sounds interesting. is the bible boring to read on it's own? I'm halfway through Carl Jung's man and his symbols book. It's about dream interpretation and the subconscious. It's super interesting, that's the thing but proompting for most of my week has made it hard to fucking read lmao it's so pathetic but it's true . I'm going face the music and go outside to read to better myself.
>>110087213Question: who is going to buy the manager's product when they're all unemployed?
>>110090638Other businessesYes you can have a fully closed chain of purely business-to-business value exchange with no consumers involved.
>>110090646Value exchange sure but no growth which means no profit.
