They say AI isn’t profitable.

@stefano We have to admit, to think is something from the past.

@stefano
The absolute horseshit going on right now will keep me employed until 50 years after my death.

[greenskyoverme@ohai.social]

@stefano hehehe

[bkatrenko@social.vivaldi.net]

@stefano well, in this case you are profitable from AI 🥲

[kaasbaas@mastodon.africa]

@stefano everybody hates potholes in the road.
except the guys selling tyres.

[powerfromspace1@mstdn.social]

@stefano brilliant

[cavallo_pazzo@toot.community]

@stefano HAHAHAAA, this is very good. I hope they paid a bag of money for you. ( and for that AI crap too)

@stefano

by developers who relied on AI to configure servers.

seriously?

[madengineering@mastodon.cloud]

@stefano Let me state it more accurately. Ai is not profitable to the people who use, operate, or maintain it.

[sabrinaweb71@sociale.network]

@stefano I foresee a future where people like you are always more needed

[bebadefabo@mastodon.social]

@stefano it's exceptionally profitable for the energy companies who are using this artificial demand to inflate prices. That's why they've subsidized shoehorning AI into everything

[enigmarotor@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@_elena @stefano well, we have some problems there, better find another place maybe ??

[pattykimura@beige.party]

@stefano

AI, it turns out, is the Cybertruck of computers.

Overhyped, oversold, made billionaires out of liars, and fascists out of greedy billionaires, and it ... rusts.

This is why think we're stupid.

[stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@uriel Seriously. It's getting more and more common. They need servers -> use AI to tell them how to configure them -> make a mess -> "aaahhh we need the cloud as servers don't work!"

[gabrielmarkley@techhub.social]

@NickBergenComputerQuest @stefano This thread was great but your post made my day. Have another wonderful day everyone. Knowing LLMs will need therapy and the support industry will grow.

[autiomaa@mementomori.social]

@stefano @uriel Then they need LLMs to tell why the cloud configuration is a mess.

@pattykimura @stefano
"Rewrite it in Rust"
!!!!!111!!!1!!

[beasts@social.mythic-beasts.com]

@stefano we've done that a few times. Somehow 'restore from our last good backup' is often the first step.

@dec23k @pattykimura @stefano "Now you have $n+1$ problems."
