Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I can make a safe assumption before reading the article that ChatGPT didn't ruin the wedding, but rather somebody that was using ChatGPT ruined the wedding.

"blame the person, not the tools" doesn't work when the tools' marketing team is explicitly touting said tool as a panacea for all problems. on the micro scale, sure, the wedding planner is at fault, but if you zoom out even a tiny bit it's pretty obvious what enabled them to fuck up for as long and as hard as they did

what if the person in question is also a tool

"ChatGPT is good, but only if no one in a position of authority uses it"

Cool.

"This hammer can't plan a wedding. Hammers are useless."

almost all of your posts are exactly this worthless and exhausting and that’s fucking incredible

I get the feeling you're exactly the kind of person who shouldn't have a proompt, much less a hammer

[–] self@awful.systems 1 points 2 years ago

no absolutely, I shouldn’t ever “have a proompt”, whatever the fuck that means

the promptfondlers really aren’t alright now that public opinion’s against the horseshit tech they love

[–] Amoeba_Girl@awful.systems 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

why would you say something so inane my god

[–] self@awful.systems 1 points 2 years ago

do you think they ever got round to reading the article, or were they spent after coming up with “hmmmm I bet chatgpt didn’t somehow prompt itself” as if that were a mystery that needed solving
