truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 11h"Yeah, but it doesn't matter that in the future traditional artists won't make art, because AI artists will make art using their creative prompts instead." Because they have no soul, nor recognize that such a thing exists. 010
truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 15hI am a programmer. AI code is trash code. A Harvard study just dropped showing that the net benefit in time spent by letting AI write your code for you is zero. Because of all the mistakes it makes, because it's trash. People should _do_ the things they "do" , and become good at them. 000

truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026There was substantial suppression of legal voters (throwing them off the rolls, closing polling places so as to force 10 hour lines) but all of that is appallingly legal. 010
truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I put a bidet in before I had to do the prep, best decision ever.

truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 29/09/2026What I liked about the previous iteration of these technologies was that it was a specifically unnatural syntax. "make a calendar appointment for dinner with Jessica at 7 pm Friday". You phrased what you wanted in a templated, mechanical way so the machine could parse it cleanly. 060
truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I can think of plenty of uses for what they tell us that AI will one day be able to do. It's just that those statements have to be evaluated in the context of what they currently claim it can, and those are complete horseshit. 151

Reposted by @truerg.bsky.socialBruno Dies @brunodias.dev · 28/09/2026It really doesn't make sense to attribute those job losses to AI-the-technology, because if that were the case we'd be observing AI outputs displacing conventional entertainment products, and they're clearly not. Rather, the impact of AI is that AI-the-business is crowding out other investment. 171472489

truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 27/09/2026God, can you imagine the page load times? For anyone from Gen Z reading this: page load times were metrics on how long it took the customer to load your webpages, a thing devs once obsessed over every 50ms to get down, and have long since pivoted to "Eh, 15 seconds is fine." 050
truerg.bsky.social @truerg.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The quality of TFA was set by the movies that followed. It could have been setting up a story about the cyclical nature of history, overlapping a story about the cyclical nature of families and individuals. Or it could be reheated slop. And the rest of the trilogy determined it as the latter. 000
