Oooh so clever, call it bubble so when people search ai bubble…

I mean it’ll probably work on some people…

[-] fullsquare@awful.systems 13 points 1 month ago

jokes on you, google chatbot won't know about it because it was made past cutoff date

[-] nixukty@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

kid named web search tool

[-] Thorry@feddit.org 49 points 1 month ago

Oh no! Our AI bot creates terrible code! We are doomed!

But sir, what if we simply don't show the code to users?

Dammit Jenkins, you did it again! You are a genius!

Dammit ~~Jenkins~~ Gemini, you did it again! You are a genius!

Fixed that for you.

Like serverless applications ...

[-] fullsquare@awful.systems 34 points 1 month ago

you might think that there's a bubble

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

Ok, I am old and not a techy person… I thought “vibe code” was a bad thing? So, is this ad saying “shitty code without the code?” So it’s just shitty? Or is my understanding of “vibe coding” wrong and it’s a good thing?

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Vibe coding typically needs to be double-checked to make sure that it does what it's actually supposed to because LLMs are notoriously prone to hallucinations. This ad suggests that their AI is better and you don't need to double check it.

But what's probably more likely is that they're just trying to break searches for "ai bubble."

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

I see, thank you for explaining. So, shitty AI company making shitty ads about probably a shitty product.

[-] laz@pawb.social 6 points 1 month ago

So business as usual :')

LLMs are notoriously prone to hallucinations

It's all hallucinations. Sometimes the hallucinations are close enough to reality to be useful.

Before current AI/LLM shenanigans, there were a lot of "low code/no code" visual programming solutions aimed at allowing novices to write software using little to no code. Visual programming software like Microsoft Power Automate, which provides users with a list of predefined commands which they can drag-and-drop onto a flowchart. When a user clicks the play button, the commands in the flowchart execute in order.

This sort of system is great for novices, allowing people who do not have experience programming (people like you, apparently) to create simple programs that do useful things. But as a project grows in complexity, so does the need to get into the code itself and tinker around to fix the nitty gritty details. A more experienced developer is going to want to get into the lower functions of the program and find a solution to the problem. But these visual programming solutions do not offer the ability to fix the nitty gritty. You are stuck only refining the high-level details, which is often not enough to solve your problem.

"Traditional" vibe coding with languages like JavaScript, C++, etc. can potentially work because an LLM spits out actual programming code that ostensibly does something. And if a developer needs to tweak that code to work a little differently, they hypothetically can. Sure, a pure vibe coder will not know what they are doing as they turn the proverbial knobs in an attempt to fix the system. But at least the knobs are there to turn, and turning them in the right way can potentially eventually solve the problem.

"Vibe code without the code" probably means to speak to an LLM and have it spit out one of those minorly-editable flowcharts. You get the benefits of vibe coding and the detriments of visual programming. You don't know what to do to fix it, and you can't fix it anyway because the tools don't let you.

It's probably some app engine that lets product teams enter prompts without even giving the option to view the code.

[-] schmorpel@slrpnk.net 23 points 1 month ago

Slop - new recipe now with more slop! Buy one AI and get a tulip bulb for free!

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Calling it bubble is really tempting fate.

[-] green_goglin@thelemmy.club 3 points 1 month ago

We’ve officially jumped the shark.

[-] blackjam_alex@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I'm yoinking this image

[-] plutopos@lemmy.zip 20 points 1 month ago

Imagine getting doxxed because someone recognized the subway tiles

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago

When I was in Boston they had screen ads like that and the tiles look familiar. Might be NYC? Not many other options in the US, idk about other countries. I don't think you can dox someone just knowing that they're white and they ride the T.

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

NGL I was gonna say this looks like a T-Stop. Maybe Kendall or South Station?

[-] misterbngo@awful.systems 2 points 1 month ago

I was thinking South station/downtown crossing, kendall doesn't have the division like that and has the tubular bells

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Didn't they just redo kendall outbound tho?

It's been a while...I work in that area but wfh 99% of the time and drive in like 0.75%. I don't recall if new Kendall outbound has the bells still.

[-] Sergio@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

It'd make sense that they'd put a tech ad at Kendall/MIT. Or anywhere on the northern Red line tbh.

[-] Swaus01@piefed.social 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Vibe code without the code? So... vibe everything? Hell no

Edit: "Hey bubble, how do i wipe my own ass?"

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 4 points 1 month ago

Pay us $100 more per month for ass wiping subscription

[-] Luisp@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 month ago

It's like buying a memecoin called ponzi

[-] Kirk@startrek.website 13 points 1 month ago

I was just recently reading that the NYC subway is awash in vague weird B2B AI ads directed at nobody and they're calling it "subway slop".

[-] jtrek@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago

Oh yeah there's a lot of them and they're terrible.

I like that someone edited one so instead of saying "one click: job done" it said "one click: job gone"

[-] Kirk@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

I swear the people who deface subway ads in New York are some of the cleverest funniest sonsofbitches around.

[-] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Wow the $549/month version gives access to 20 days of server logs, how generous

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago

Shipping code without anyone ever looking at it, WCGW?

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago

vibe code without the code

We call that vibing.

[-] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus 5 points 1 month ago

I miss when vibing was just taking ecstacy at raves

[-] ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 5 points 1 month ago

I first thought this was an ad for a bobba shop, and thought it was clever.

[-] mynameisbob@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

so stupid hahah

[-] hexagonwin@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

tbh most if not all ads are terrible, i actually kinda like how this one doesn't feature shitty ai generated slop images

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
