Aber Auslöffeln werden es trotzdem wieder ganze andere Leute müssen. Wie immer. Das ist das bittere an der Sache. Trifft immer die Falschen.

Prinzessin Müllabfuhr. Den Namen mache ich mir jetzt zueigen. Mich dagegen wehren kann ich eh nicht. 😐

Kollege meinte mal halb sarkastisch, irgendwann werden Firmen dann wieder Menschen einstellen, weil die billiger sind.

Wir gehen teilweise von Cloud-IaaS-Hostern wieder zurück zu Hardware, weil das billiger, flexibler, schneller ist … Derzeit zumindest. Die Cloud-Hostern kommen mit dem Nachkaufen von RAM nicht hinterher, sodass ständig „die Cloud voll“ ist. (Und, ja, natürlich wird sich darüber heftigst aufgeregt, aber dass das genau am eigenen Verhalten, nämlich der religiösen Liebe zur AI, liegt, merken sie nicht.)

Es ist auch jedes Augenmaß weg. Die „fette“ Kiste mit 64 CPUs, 256 GB RAM und 2 TB Platte wird nach allen Regeln der Kunst vollgekleistert. Irgendein Furz-Workload braucht 24 GB RAM, aber das ist jetzt normal und wird akzeptiert. So ist das jetzt halt.

AMD Advancing AI 2026: Open, Open-Source & More Open-Source
At this week’s AMD Advancing AI 2026 event, “AI” was mentioned thousands of times in talks and in demos. As expected.

Certainly seemed like an uptick in “open” men … ⌘ Read more

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh I agree. Long-term the whole thing is completely “fucked”. But it says more about “Cloud” and “X as a Service” than about “AI” itself. It’s a bit like all these fucking entertainment subscription services you need to entertain one’s self. How many subscriptions does one need to Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, Stan, etc, etc.

@prologic@twtxt.net Our company is paying a shitload of money for all these (different) AI tools … I’m probably not allowed to tell you the exact number, but it is a lot. The only other way would be to lay off employees, so we can pay even more for AI. (Needless to say, that would be the worst possible move.)

For a private person, $20 a month is also pretty expensive, isn’t it? And then assume that you maybe need more than one AI tool. You’re quickly up to $50 a month or much more. This isn’t something that I, as a private person, will ever be willing to spend for this kind of stuff.

“AI” is just expensive as fuck. On every level. They will have to (ab)use every possible way to squeeze more money out of it, and that includes ads and what not.

@prologic@twtxt.net This was to be expected and I’m glad that it’s finally happening. I seriously hope that AI/LLM output gets swamped with advertisements or unwanted code, so people see what they have gotten themselves into, especially the “vibe coders”.

@david@daiwei.me Have you never seen or heard me say AI is basically Artificial Incompetence? 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de So I see it slightly differently… Over the years I have recieved great contributions from the likes of yourself and @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org and the many forms of @bender@twtxt.net and his friends 😅 Hell even others along the way that have come and gone. Likewise I also think you have recieved many contributions to Jenny over the yeras in much the same way, perhaps not in patches, but user reports, feedback, etc.

So I think what I’m saying here is this… Ever since leaving Github (like you), I find that my desire to continue to build up the community we’ve built here and to contribute to grow and cultivate it is important to me. My desire to thwart and eliminate useless traffic like bots and ai even strongers.

I want to find a good balance.

@dce@hashnix.club Yeah, but I haven’t looked into this specific issue. I am very much anti-AI, but this particular thing might be human error. I don’t know.
