before i get strawmanned: no i dont think "AI" (by which i mean LLMs like chatgpt) is anywhere close to being as good/useful as writing. Still:

im sick of the exaggeration about this stuff, writing didnt kill thinking, google search didnt kill thinking, and these LLMs wont kill thinking either

realized just now this was posted to c/slop so this isnt directed at you OP

I think the hype is on the down swing. It seems they're gonna try again with newer, more mathematically efficient models or something. Telling ppl not to worry about this shit will always be an uphill battle bc not only are the hype-men, salesmen, and the bougies trying to scare the public & their workers w/ this stuff. Ppl that should really know better have also convinced themselves.

I feel as though the creator of Nodejs (a monumental step forward for Javascript and a technology that helps websites like these run) would be able to think introspectively and accept that intelligence is far more complex than a complex statistical model but I am wrong

Creator of nodejs? Fucking dipshit loser who lowered my quality of life. Lemmy does not use nodejs.

Computer programming is one long struggle session among the nerdiest people you ever know, not this pompous Zionist level delusions of self grandeur.

all that said I think I am gonna start learning rust i-cant

Rust is great, the only problem is when you have to go back to other languages and you don't have the luxury of cargo and the 50 other things surrounding the language that make developing for it so easy.

the novel memory management is neat but I always find the rampant use of macros to be a huge roadblock to doing anything quickly any time I try to pick it up. but I'm not coming from cpp so I don't think I'm the target audience
