What, you think every single company on Earth is dumb? You think that every programmer adopting it is dumb? You guys have no clue.

I'm sure you're using the universal "you" here, but: I'm literally a programmer that uses AI through work. I'm currently on a team working with/creating our own internal agent. I still think that, for most fields, it's snake oil. If you think the tech can be used to fight power: go for it, I guess. Instead it seems to be used to rationalize layoffs and generate CSAM on Twitter.
