> Instead of being a problem solver you start to become a problem hunter, and you invent them in order to solve them
replyGeneric problem of any Linux newbie. You get good at solving problems and it's so enjoyable so you end up creating more of them.
Cough factorio cough :)
replyAs someone with a default mode network that is stuck in the "on' position, that game is the only one that I had to quit playing for my mental health.
replyOr kubernetes, the factorio for Ops
replyHowever here it is not the user solving the problems.
replyThe only thing they solved is remembering "hey, I can use an AI for that".
Sounds similar to buying a 3D printer hehe
replyKinda like learning bash. The most annoying time was when I figured out how to send myself SMS via bash script.
replyWow, this definitely describes my obsession with AI over the past year, always hunting for problems to solve with it.
replyThis sounds similar to what you feel when learning to program for the first time.
replyIMO it is 100% this - these AI tools are letting anyone solve problems that were previously in the domain of programmers.
replyIsn’t that a general engineering problem?
replyEngineering is the process of planning and implementing the simplest thing that works within given constraints.
replyThere is no planning, implementing, or constraint here.
If engineering is about implementing the simplest thing then why do we call implementing the most complicated thing overengineering and not underengineering?
reply> There is no planning, implementing, or constraint here.
replyThat's because most AI use is reverse engineering!
Resolving static into a valid problem through the sheer force of squinting at it long enough!
Sounds like it's time for the "engineering" definition to get a modern update.
replyAn ‘ammer.
