Vim's lead maintainer has fully lost his goddamn mind

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Of all the problems with these things we're taking issue with the naming?
Oh no! Another issue! I'm a jellyfish and can only respond to a limited number of stimuli at a time because I have not centralised nervous system capable of organising my critiques into diverse and disparate arguments! I can only talk about vanishingly simple problems that are one-dimensional enough for me to tunnel vision on repeating the same talking points, preferably no longer than a dozen syllables total to accomodate not having a long-term memory centre due to my aforementioned lack of a brain 🪼🥺
I am very tired and have gone absolutely overboard on this comment, to the person I'm responding to pls don't take this personally, more rational, less sleepy me doesn't want to be a troll. But SERIOUSLY? You're argument isn't even "this isn't a problem", it's "I can't see the value in doing a full deconstruction of this novel ethical scenario and just want to be a sheep saying it's bad for the reason my favourite shepherd says so, not because of healthy discussion of ALL the pros and cons." Reminds me of those cringe posts from a couple months ago where people were saying "the epstein files are a distraction! don't forget about my favourite political issue {insert valid issue}". I'm going to be a hypocrite for a second bc this long arse comment is 1,000,000x worse than yours, but consider why you're commenting before you hit post next time.
That's a lot of words you're putting my mouth, and a lot of names you're calling a stranger on the internet. But you seem like an alright person, so I hope your day gets better.
