Jeff Smith @jeffsmith.bsky.social · 06/09/2026The rhetoric has shifted once again, this time from "it's a tool" to "this is so obviously right you're delusional or a liar if you don't agree" so I will once again attempt to explain why AI is not, in fact, good for code 1488
Jeff Smith @jeffsmith.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Idk if I can quite articulate the how and why but as someone who grew up in a religious cult, talking to people still in it and talking to fans of AI feels exactly the same 100

Reposted by Jeff SmithAlexander King @literallyaking.com · 19/08/2026I think maybe the reason this didn't happen is that promises like the former are quickly verifiable as something it can't actually do, whereas promising to replace all labor *in the future* is a goalpost that's conveniently mobile.
