OP is clearly distressed and you replied with with what comes out as “it’s your fault and you deserve this.” It costs nothing to refrain from replying and only the smallest amount of effort to provide some solidarity with your fellow human.
OP, I feel you-I had a similar response to this clearly orchestrated PR campaign. OpenAI really loves that people think that it can replace the entire tech industry with an API. It would mean they are the most valuable company ever to exist.
Personally, I’ve been through so many hype waves of “this will take our jobs!!!1” I’m a bit inured to the whole thing. My personal belief is that software development will be the last one to go, the ones to turn out the lights. And we should be grateful that our jobs go away. Let’s go drink wine and eat cheese in the forest, dancing under a moonlit sky.
My advice is to get offline, talk to a loved one, pet a dog, go look at art, meditate, basically anything that doesn’t involve a screen.

- pythonvisa 4y agoGood advice, seeing my family over a long weekend, I'm sure I'll calm down after then. I wish you good mental health.
