Say what you want about the first couple generations of the web, but it treated humans and the human experience as important and valuable. Every tech project now is like, "yeah, but what if we could do that without people?" @fraying I mean listen, so many companies already βdo UXβ without users that this feels like itβs just a big grift (it is) @fraying is it as simple as figuring out how to make a tech work, then (typically: others) figuring out how to make a business with it ? Like: early autos solving tractor then transport problems versus 50s onward auto industry chasing market share Growing The Business through @fraying The quest to un-human everything just never seems to end @fraying i predict that tech projects will reach a plateau of current tech used to train AIs. The "AI" generated code will feed back into its own training, producing nothing more than redundancy, without any progress. The same problem can happen with every tool using an machine trained generator. @fraying alternate title: how to make tech nerds hate tech. This reminds me, I remember, maybe 29 years ago, some idiot on a tech podcast insisting that in the future, we'd all scoop out our brains and plop a computer in its place. |
Every AI project, at its core, hates humans. Every single one.
