I'm 99.9% sure that Adobe and all other big tech companies are using LLMs to generate code. So it's slop either way, but one is at least free and open source

Of course the established alternatives like Krita, Gimp, Inkscape and others are even better, no questions there

    Can confirm, at least for Adobe Acrobat.

    There's an annoying popup ive had to deal with at work where it prompts to have AI summarize my document or some such. Takes up only ~5% of the viewing pane, but needs to be manually exited out of for EVERY document opened.

    Lemme be the first to say fuck Adobe and I've been sailing the high seas for their products since CS4, and it pains me to say this but Krita and GIMP have a long way to go before they can match the range of functionality on Photoshop.

    I genuinely really hope an open source project comes along to blow Photoshop out of the water but as someone who has been using it for 24 years, no one else is quite there yet.

    It's wild to see the divergence between Hump and Qgis.

    10 years ago both were barely functional. Qgis however, is now I would say better than it's corporate alternative.

    Probably a book could be written about the differences between the two projects.

    Air can simplify the agent part, but not the four-machine SSH part. At least not yet. Inside IntelliJ, Air can give you a single place to run Gemini CLI, Codex, Claude Agent, and Junie, including running agents in parallel (you can also add other ACP-compatible agents).

    So your workflow could be:

    1. In the Air prompt window, use Claude for a complex refactoring

    2. In the same window, use Codex for a separate implementation task

    3. In the same window, use Gemini for another task or review
      ...

    4. Become more dependent on the AI, atrophy gradually

    5. Think less, pay more

    6. Pay more, think less

    7. Pay more

    8. Depend more

    9. Pay more

    10. Give everything to those who run DataCenters or have unlimited access to LLM/AI

    11. Become homeless

    12. Devalue and obliterate your art and history

    13. Devalue and obliterate human art and history

    14. Depend more

    15. Depend more

    16. Depend more

    17. Become biomass

    18. Die

    …so infinitely much is getting devalued, dehumanized, ruined…
    …I’ve been a developer for more than 20 years now…
    …such an ineffably sorrowful time to live…
