Look at it from the bright side - when the "AI" bubble collapses and takes your lifetime earnings with it, you may at least get a free roboride to the bioreactor.

Laugh at it all you want, but in the end this failure put the man on the moon.
Why should a mark be considered as anything but a source of revenue?
Why? What's wrong with just using the right tools for the job in a pipeline?

No way, we're all in.
They save a lot of time on boilerplate / web design.
How much new boilerplate do you need in a project which you can't pull from the git repo of your older projects?
I don't see any non-trivial savings that can justify even the $20/mo for the cheapest "copilot" account.
I'm sure the models trained on stack exchange examples will produce exactly the optimized code every CTO is hoping for when they promote the "AI".
Which one?
The one lead by the "visionary" in the leather jacket, who keeps the bubble going.

as though these AI companies are engaged in a conspiracy to make shit more expensive for themselves.
No, dude, they're making it expensive for you to do shit off their platforms.
How are they not? The "demand" for parts is entirely engineered by the delirious circle jerk of one hardware manufacturer, three or four advertising peddlers that claim an absurd "AGI race", the construction mafia, which is now constructing data centers and a bunch of bubble riders who fan the hype so that there are marks to offload this BS to.
There is no evidence of sales or even "growth" promise that can justify anything close to this idiotic splurge.
Buying out all component manufacturing with the splurge is nothing but a ruse to block any meaningful work that might happen off those few platforms by artificially inflating the cost of hardware. The deepseek lesson learned.
spasiba, comrade.
The samaltmans are using the absurd amounts of cash they are awash in to create an artificial component shortages so that you're driven to their "platform".
Nothing like a little old trick to create "demand" out of thin air.
Every Japanese taxi has a lever that the driver can use to open and close the passenger door without getting out of the car.
And yes, generally there is only one passenger door and it is the one back and on the left, the one that is on the sidewalk side. The drivers get really upset if you ride shotgun or try to get out on the other side.
Bear more children, then.
Despite all "sanctions", the ruzzkie pederation has no problem whatsoever to buy any semiconductor needed to manufacture the rockets they rain on Ukraine every day.
I can easily see how commercially available uranium, enriched to the levels necessary for the submarine reactors, finds its way to any customer with deeper pockets through the same routes.
