> Why do AI boosters like yourself...

I believe that I am more of an AI realist. The agentic dev tools are really helping me out, but if I could wave a magic wand to make AI go away for a hundred years, I would do it.

I really hope that we can all laugh at how wrong I was.

However, I believe that the horrors will likely outweigh the benefits. Our global society/political systems are not ready for Stasi as a Service, mass unemployment, or any of this impending crap storm.

Getting in on the astounding action before the world turns to shit.

Who could call me a starry-eyed idealist? I have invested in bunkers.

  • lol. I have been a starry-eyed idealist all of my life. I would like to think that I still am.

    I hate money.

    You know what I hate even more? Being the supposed "smart one," and having to borrow money from my entire family to get through my health issues.

    I will never do that again, hopefully.
