If people just wanted to make their own stuff and have fun, that's fine. Knock yourself out.
However, it's launched this enormous tidal wave of mediocrity that emboldens the dumbest people to do the dumbest shit and make it my problem. I just had to yell at one of the IT guys for trying to hook up our Duo to Claude, and I'm still mad about it lol.
Stupid people are always going to do stupid shit. I don't think that makes the enabling technology the problem & the anger towards it is misdirected.
>trying to hook up our Duo to Claude
ngl that is hilarious
Yeah, but the idiots had to put in effort before, which was difficult for them for obvious reasons.
Now they have a cheerful idiot robot who can actually do the idiot things they dream up and it tells them how brilliant they are.
Is it this: GitLab Duo Agent Platform with Claude accelerates development [1]? Well, Gitlab itself promotes hooking them up!

No, Duo as in Cisco Duo IAM.
It was a "please do not fuck around with a central pillar of our security infrastructure just because you can" thing lol.
What's a Duo?
