    They say AI isn’t profitable. That’s not true.
    Twice just this past week, I’ve been contacted and paid to fix problems caused by developers who relied on AI to configure servers.

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

          @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

              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.

                @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!"

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

                                  AI-generated integrated systems config & procedural advice is generally crap dressed up nice.

                                  Some of it might work, but finding what does is like trying to pick a few grains of salt from a bucket of sand.

                                          They say AI isn’t profitable. That’s not true.
                                          Twice just this past week, I’ve been contacted and paid to fix problems caused by developers who relied on AI to configure servers.

                                          @stefano that's what I'll probably live of in the future, as a developer. But I'm not happy at all: fixing vibed code is an horrible task. It's not like fixing code written by an intern: there's intent in that, it probably tried to understand the problem and then (failed at?) deliver a solution.
                                          In the case of vibed code, there's only a list of example inputs and attended results: the generated code may be everything, it's probably easier to rewrite it from scratch, a price the customer will not want to pay, because "it worked perfectly until now!"...
