@noracodes I know the kids. The kids use "AI" as a pejorative. They hate it more than we do. Almost everyone hates it. The people that actually like this shit are a noisy minority. The battle isn't lost. Most of the datacenters will never be built, and the companies trying to build them will fail; it's already starting to happen.
Opposing CoPilot wasn't pointless. A bunch of people ended up quitting GitHub because of it. They lost a lot of talent and organizational knowledge because of it, tried to lean on AI to make up for it, and now the whole thing is a flaming mess perpetually on the edge of self-destruction. By going all-in on CoPilot, GitHub did an amazing speedrun from the center of the software universe to a punchline in under 2 years.
