    It is not just you who think it is stupid as many do, but I think it is more than safe to say that not using an AI agent in the future, while possible, will be like trying to function in our world without a smartphone. Possible of course, but you are at a disadvantage. I personally look forward to my AI agent booking travel and being as thorough and then some as I could ever hope to be. I look forward to an AI agent to live inside my development environment and help me get things done and spend less time trying to fix issues. There are so many things that AI is going to be amazing at, and those who embrace will reap the benefits.

      My friend, I think you have it backwards.

      AI use vs genuine human interaction is going to be like getting a machine made t-shirt at Walmart for $5 vs hiring a tailor. AI is going to give you a markedly lower quality job for much cheaper, and that’s going to be its utility.

        Machine made t-shirt, with extra fingers.

        Besides, isn’t most clothes just made by poor people in poor conditions instead of being made with machines? Just like AI.

          All products are handmade. Nothing is made only with machines.

          Don’t try to misrepresent what I said. Buying a cheap machine made shirt is hardly the equivalent of needing a smart phone to function in society.

          lol, has that person ever even posted here? (just realized that’s actually hard to tell)

          imagine the headspace it takes to just randomly do a driveby tut-tut because of perceived impropriety just because you yourself have never faced a lick of pushback to bullshit. amazing, 10/10, no notes

            they had exactly one (relatively upvoted) post here in the last 4 months before they decided to use the reports system as… a weird one-way DM? an attempt to get me pulled into an urgent meeting about my attitude (good fucking luck)? like even if they were hoping someone else would read it, the fuck kind of result did they expect from “not very mature tbh”?

            also, a “posts to this instance only” view on profiles is a brilliant feature idea as a moderation tool

              Can I put you aside for an urgent meeting about your attitude?

              It’s great, please continue, you’re doing (acausal robot) god’s work out here.

              I was thinking about that (the view) when I made that comment, and lol at it not existing in mod

              I’m on a coffee run quickly but once I stop, I’ll make a subthread collating the ideas that have been had so far (just to track/centralise for easy view)

                that’s a great idea! I’m hoping I can grab enough dev time this week to get our fork in better shape

      …will be like trying to function in our world without a smartphone.

      As an ADHD and LightPhone enjoyer, It really isn’t that hard. You just have to live life with the forethought that the ancients employed way back in 2004. The gravest problem I’ve faced is that I’ve wasted a shit-ton of potential Jimmy John’s loyalty points on account of not having a QR code reader.

      That’s not the flex you think it is.
