I expect the last step in that is you slapping him?

It's extremely annoying everywhere. GitHub's updates were about AI for so fucking long that I stopped reading them, which means I now miss actually useful stuff until someone informs me of it months later.
For example, did you know GitHub Actions now has really good free ARM runners? It's amazing! I love it! Shame GitHub only bother's to tell me about their revolutionary features of "please spam me with useless PRs" and... make a pong game? What? Why would I want this?
This is such a wild example to me because sitting at beach is extremely boring and takes forever whereas doing calculus is at least engaging so time flies reasonably quick.
Like when I think what takes the longest in my life I don't think "those times when I'm actively solving problems", I think "those times I sit in a waiting room at the doctors with nothing to do" or "commuting, ditto".
That's wrong on both counts.
The complaints about NFTs were also that they were unethical - consumed a shitton of electricity for no reason, sustained themselves mostly by scams and rugpulls. The chief use case of crypto has always been crime and money laundering.
The complaints about AI are that it fucking sucks and results in a truly insane waste of resources towards something that doesn't solve literally any problems, like NFTs squared. The unethical aspect of it all is just a cherry on top that makes using LLMs a no-go even if it happened to kinda work for your problem.
Feels like overlooking the same issue as with every other AI use
When a human makes a mistake and is called out, they can usually fix the mistake. When genAI outputs nonsense, it's fucking nonsense, you can't fix something that's fundamentally made up, and if you try to "ask it" to fix it it'll just respond with more nonsense. I hallucinated this case? Certainly! Here's 3 other cases you could cite instead: 3 new made up cases
