Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I'd certainly feel less conflicted yelling about AI if I didn't work for a big tech company that's gaga for AI. I almost wrote out a long angsty reply but I don't want to give up too much personal details in a single comment.
I guess I ended up as a boiled frog. If I knew how much AI nonsense I'd be incidentally exposed to over the last year I would have quit a year ago. And yet currently I don't quit for complicated reasons. I'm not that far from the breaking point, but I'm going to try to hang in for a few more years.
But yeah, I'm pretty uncomfortable working for a company that has also veered closer to allying with techo-fascism in recent years; and I am taking psychic damage.
