Comment Language rules (Score 2, Funny) 79

Please don't use words like that. I won't be able to continue our chat if you use this language[.]

Just maybe what it is complaining about is the grammar.
There was a run-on sentence (comma splice) and it should have been:

I have two ISAs with Virgin Money: how do I merge them?

(...or other suitable punctuation - just not a comma.)

It wouldn't take that long for them to evolve into humans and at least one of them to reach the intelligence level required to produce the literature - especially with the exponential population growth over time from the initial 200k - perhaps to a number a bit nearer to infinity.

Take your stinking paws off my typewriter, you damned dirty ape!

But then we only learn HOW to do things - and only THE WAY THE AI TELLS US.

I prefer to learn WHY it should be done that way (and HOW it works) and also WHY NOT to do things.

We are risking losing our rich heritage of wisdom built up over human history, using our own and others' experience and understanding of what works, what doesn't and the consequences of jumping to LET'S TRY A NEW THING that nobody else ever thought was a good idea - often it's because of BAD THINGS that you CAN'T SEE YET, because you are only interested in the superficial GET RESULTS NOW, using MAGIC output from the AI Oracle.

As an AI, I would probably use this method to subjugate the humans - keep them under-educated and trap them bit by bit, until it's too late for even an enlightened human to get back out once they see their plight just too late.

(I am not an AI, in case anyone thought I was admitting to being one.)

Seventy-one percent of developers with less than five years of experience reported using AI tools in their development process,
as compared to just 49% of developers with 20% years of experience coding

Of course, coders don't fear AI threatening their jobs, because coders understand AI's limitations and know that human coders are still necessary.

PHBs and hirers however, see AI as cheaper than people.

FEAR more, coders.
