I think you(no offense) and many others look at this all as "mass production of artificial crap", HELLO all consumer shit is! I don't subscribe to that, so don't lump me in there. Just like a milling machine can be used to produce wasteful widgets destined for consumer trashcans, so can the same machine be used to create high quality parts used in airplanes... my point is, YES, in the wrong hands any tool can be miss used. You have no idea how or what Im doing with code gen, or statistics... and you paint it all "generative AI", yawn.

> I think you(no offense) and many others look at this all as "mass production of artificial crap", HELLO all consumer shit is! My argument isn’t that “consumer rubbish is good as long as it wasn’t made with AI”, if that’s what you’re getting at. Using your example, I am concerned that humans are losing what little ability they had to discern which widgets belong in the bin and which are high quality, that’s not an accident and AI is just one of many tools used by the wrong hands to that effect. To be clear, that isn’t AI’s fault, it’s a human problem. I made no comment on your work, because quite frankly I don’t care. I agree that mediocrity isn’t some new fangled thing that appeared because of AI, but I think it’s pretty naive to dismiss its impact on the issue. Edit: I just realized that I made a typo in my original comment that I apologize for because it most certainly did sound personal. Unfortunately I can no longer edit. > that doesn’t mean it can’t be mediocre
