Man, hilarious they are trying to get us to use copilot at work. Like, all of the features are blocked due to privacy concerns, and it doesn't do anything. I see no benefits of the 30$ a month per user they want to charge. I asked it to turn my spreadsheet into a chart and it says "I can't do that, but I can guide you through the steps" wtf is the point then? It can't do useful things, only pointless things like summarizing emails. #ai #copilot

We do not provide evidence that:

- #AI systems do not currently speed up many or most #softwareDevelopers

- AI systems do not speed up individuals or groups in domains other than #softwareDevelopment

- AI systems in the near future will not speed up #developers

- There are not ways of using existing AI systems more effectively

Douglas Adams beschrieb im Anhalter meine Erfahrung mit KI-Content am treffendsten: Es wird stets etwas generiert, was in etwa so ist, wie das, was man wollte, aber eben nicht ganz. Vor allem bei Code-Generierung verbringt man mehr Zeit mit der Fehlersuche, als man durch die Generierung an Zeit gespart hätte. Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike working code. #Copilot

People Are Using AI Chatbots to Guide Their Psychedelic Trips

I am part of the GitHub Maintainers community (maintainers.github.com/), a good sample of people working seriously for years on medium- and high-profile #OpenSource codebases.
I want to share the consensus I saw in the last months on how shitty and counter-productive #GenAI is for most workflows, quite the opposite of the #VibeCoding / #Copilot hype you hear everywhere.
Case at hand: GitHub offers an opportunity to get your project featured against trial & feedback on AI PRs.
They get only 👎

More people are depending on AI for a lot of matters which is not the right one for consultation.

Beware of sharing / consulting it for:
1. your thoughts and feelings
2. therapy
3. life decisions
4. critical work

I’ve always been good at holding onto things, but over time, digital data slipped away. As hard drives grew larger, backing everything up felt tedious—and eventually, I let it all go.

However, my shabby old diary remains. I think paper is quite durable.

 
物持ちは良いほうだと思うのですが、時代とともにデジタルデータを失ってきました

HDD容量が大きくなるに連れバックアップの作成も面倒になってかなぐり捨てたけど、古い日記帳だけは残っています
結構、紙は丈夫だと思う

According to #copilot: Amber Alerts can’t be used directly for floods or tornadoes, but the system that delivers Amber Alerts—called Wireless Emergency Alerts WEA—can *absolutely* be used for those kinds of emergencies. 2/
