#artificialstupidity — Public Fediverse posts

The more #AI takes over the digital world (coding, design, writing), the more drawn I am to the physical: solving problems with pen and paper, sketching by hand, writing in an actual notebook.

I don’t care about digital anymore. Even if you swear you made it yourself and spent years honing the craft, I have no way to verify it. It’s just "trust me, bro." Honestly, I can't admire someone who simply prompted their way into creating something.

What is there to admire? That you have an average command of English? Fuck off. It’s worthless. The entire digital landscape can burn. It’s broken.

Truth is, I’ve practically automated myself out of my current role. I’m still needed, but the joy and pride that used to come with the work are gone. I just can’t bring myself to care about the disciplines that make up my day job anymore.

Back in the day, I wanted to master design and code for all the usual reasons: competition, pride, validation, attention, job security.

Now? I couldn’t give a single fuck. All I want is to make something inherently pointless, simply because the process of creating it brings me joy.

I don’t know whether that’s good or bad. All I know is that it leaves me feeling a little sad.

I’m a firm believer in contrast. And beyond belief, I hold a psychology degree; I know this mechanism inside out. We only truly value things when they are kept at a distance or earned through friction.

You enjoy leisure time because you have to work.
You enjoy the finished piece because you sweat blood to get there.
You cherish time with family and friends because you can't have it on demand, and you know time is finite.
Etc, etc.

This era of abundance will ironically leave a deep scarcity inside of us. And anyone who thinks this stops at the digital screen is hopelessly naive.

It takes a truly detached, unreflective mind to celebrate what is happening right now.

This from the creator of the #Java language; be assured this man has seen some truly awful code.

So if *he* is saying #GenAI #LLM output is worse: please, believe him.
