Trying to make life even more miserable for their employees

...the new Spinal Tap movie where the record company guy is physically unable to enjoy music
"putting someone who doesn't like movies in charge of a major motion picture studio"

...when testing immature tech, do it in an isolated test system, far from anything critical, and monitor it closely

The key word is "could"
It can't do it today
It's possible to imagine that future versions might
Old COBOL code is well tested and mission critical. It's also a mess of patches and spaghetti
Accurately extracting the logic and the way it handles edge cases is nontrivial
Vibe coded slop is not a valid substitute

Robot vacuums do NOT need to communicate with a cloud server
The cloud is a trap
Run away

"Is the software I'm making for myself on my phone as good as handcrafted, bespoke code? No. But it's immediate and cheap"
Today's AI is just making software worse
I am hoping for future AI that can help experts make excellent, efficient, bug-free software
What we have today is just more slop

Encouraging addiction to support an evil religious cult

"its product roadmap is dictated by whatever the research labs happen to discover rather than by deliberate product strategy"
This is the way leading edge research is done
You can't have a "deliberate product strategy" when inventing totally new stuff

..difficult, regardless of how powerful the tools are
AI tools turn a specification into code
Writing a complex specification is hard, really hard
Reminds me of the old "waterfall" approach to software design

Politicians display profound ignorance of technology
They live in a fantasy world where they believe that laws can control everything

They make a bit more sense for an established company that doesn't change
They fail catastrophically for risky startups

New Study Tracks How Businesses Quietly Replaced Poor Quality, Bottom of the Barrel Freelancers With AI Tools

..of technical problems, the quote seems to be a political statement from an EV hater
It would be more informative if the actual technical problems were discussed
Given the political nature of the quote, methinks the problems were exaggerated

The tech shows great promise, but is immature.
I suspect that productivity will go down as people take time from their regular work to try to figure out how to use the new tools effectively.
The transition will be uneven, with a lot of failures and wasted time.
Meanwhile, hypemongers and lying salesweasels continue to promise perfect results now and clueless executives believe them.
I suspect that there will be a backlash as workers are forced to use buggy, immature tech that slows them down.
Here's a good article on the subject https://www.scientificamerican...

The tech could be good if it reduced real crime, murder, theft, burglary, vandalism, etc
The tech is really bad if it is used for political purposes, minor traffic violations, or evidence in divorce cases
