This is a bit of hyperbole. Step back and look at the list of articles on the front page. You're going to see a lot of different things. It's not the overwhelming flood of Gen AI content that you're saying here. We got one guy who wrote his own music player for iOS. We got this other guy who's optimizing is OCR code. Another article talks about infrared contact lenses. And yeah there's going to be more AI stuff than there used to be, because that's what's going on right now in the field. But it's far from the only thing. Not by a long shot. The only reason you and I are conversing in this AI adjacent thread is because we both clicked on the link. The only difference between us is that I was actually interested in what this article had to say, but you're clearly not. And that's completely fair! But you make it sound like you're starved for non-AI content when there's a whole wealth of it on the front page. C'mon.
- hansmayer 1y agoOn a deeper level, the complaint is about the meaninglessness of those many posts. It is supposed to be revolutionary tech, but every week, every week we are bombarded with these vague and mostly it seems incremental "improvements". People who post this stuff should wait up a bit and let us know when there is a real breakthrough. Or when the VC investors stop pumping in on the order of 200B USD into the magic oracle industry,only to generate a total of 10B pre-tax income for all the major AI companies combined.
