That’s not what the meme is about? It’s about how everything is marketed as AI these days, even if there’s no machine learning involved whatsoever.

My favorite example

But 9/10 Lemmy users are super pissed about anything “LLM” (I don’t dare say AI, since what we have now is NoThInG mOrE tHaN a PaRrOt)

It is not machine learning and LLM that pisses off Lemmy users. Its the application of said technologies. I don’t give a flying fuck what people are doing with ChatGPT, its novel. I want a generative AI that can help me code.

I don’t agree. Every time I have tried to point out that GitHub copilot is a helpful tool, the trolls come out of the woodwork to tell me I’m wrong and a shitty developer

My team or I have not had very much luck with it. We were spending a lot of time picking out bad generated code.

I have luck with it daily. I wouldn’t want to return to writing code without ever having little shortcuts builtin to my workflow throughout every day. It certainly saves me time and I have some other teammates who agree. Some luddites on the team also, but I don’t let their fear bog me down. I think everyone who is strictly against copilot actually has failed to ever try it
