Ironically, this response contains no critical thinking or nuance.
- elktown 10mo agoSuch a typical HN "gotcha!".
- NeutralCrane 10mo agoI recommend engaging with ideas next time, rather than making reductive, ad-hominem, thought-terminating statements.
- elktown 10mo agoThanks! I recommend not reading all comments literally. We have a significant hype bubble atm and I'm not exactly alone in thinking how crazy it is. I think you can draw a connection from my exasperated statement to that if you really wanted to.
- cthalupa 10mo agoYou intentionally made disparaging remarks about someone and attempted to tie them having an opinion about a technology to that of people who have a vested financial interest in said technology. You didn't engage at all on the substance of their comment - that they find AI useful for doing code reviews - and instead made a comment that was nothing but condescension. All of that is separate from whether or not AI is overhyped or anything else - it being valuable for PRs could be true while it is also overhyped. If true, that could be some of the nuance you seem to be so concerned about us lacking.
- elktown 10mo ago1. No, I haven't suggested financial interest. There are plenty of non-financial ones on this forum. 2. True, I challenged the person's bias considering extraordinary historical comments lacking extraordinary evidence.
- threethirtytwo 10mo agoYour comments lack evidence most of it consists of digging through other people’s comment history and profiling them. I’ve seen you use that in several of your arguments. Never have I once seen you use logic or evidence to state your points. I never look at someone’s comment history. I judge them for what they said only and I disseminate that without getting personal. I made an exception for you given how you decided to stalk my comment history and I noticed you just do this for everyone.
- elktown 10mo agoYeah, still spamming annoyed replies everywhere including old threads certainly fits the profile of someone unbalanced being angry about being found out.
- threethirtytwo 10mo agobro, you went through my comment history. I simply did the same and I responded to a few of your responses that are wrong. I'm not angry man, I just felt you needed a mentor, someone who can point you in the right direction. And wth do you mean by "found out"? are you ok?
- elktown 10mo agoHaha, funny. Hopefully you won’t be banned again!

- threethirtytwo 10mo agoWe are in a hype bubble. Similar to the internet hype bubble. Like the internet bubble, the AI bubble is orthogonal to whether or not AI will change the world forever.
- XenophileJKO 10mo agoThey're not wrong. I think many people also saw/see the trajectory of the models. If you were pro-ai doing the majority of coding a year ago, you would have been optimistically in front of where the tech was actually capable. If you are strongly against AI doing the majority of coding now, you are likely well behind what the current tech is capable of. People who were pragmatic and knowledgeable anticipated this rise in capability.
