    I am so tired of everyone and everything trying to shove AI down my throat.

    My current job’s CEO has done nothing but say we need to do nothing but AI our life to the point where they cut all our old stipends and replaced it with an AI stipend. My last job installed an AI plugin in our browser so we’d feed their llm our data. Everyone has a worthless llm chatbot that no one asked for.

    I’m tired man. I’m sick of everything demanding I use this thing so they can try to replace me with it. It’s like being asked to train my replacement.

      Same here, my CEO and other board directors did a long video telling that we released an impressive AI feature that will change the world and they didn’t even explain what the feature is. It is nothing than text summarizer that will extract relevant keywords. We already did that without LLM. Now in the company, people working on AI things are getting promotion and raises.

      I fucking booked it from a job after about 2 months because in every fucking meeting the CTO would wax on about how great it would be once we were all replaced by robots and AI. This fucker who clawed his way into his C level position though merit, and hard work, and the same last name as the owner, and all he could do to inspire the team was tell us about how a 91 year old who lost his job to AI was saying how he would be fine. I mean, if he can find a way to be happy, we all can!

        Utterly tone deaf, some of these guys, it’s amazing. Had a new CEO open a meeting shortly after he started with a story about visiting an apiary (bee farm) with his family. His unironic takeaway which he shared with us, somehow missing the poignant relevance of what he was saying - “It turns out the drones just don’t do very much”.

        It was like he intended an ice breaker with a personal anecdote, and it started out fine, but he couldn’t help but just tell literally all of us how he really feels. Amazing.

    I like how this forum thread has actual thoughtful and objective commentary that all point to how bad this feature is.

    How long until someone asks an LLM how to customize the property names of JSON and it tells them to use github copilot to that 😂

    Fuck. Copilot is going to add ads to everything.

    Videos, links, random paragraphs. Everything written by a llm will feature 3rd party ads. Taking a page from malware developers, there will be innocuous libraries added that will later morph.

    Eventually, we will stop writing software as llms will be all software. Serving ads. Serving you to advertisers.

    “Hey watch, what time is it?”

    “Time for a sugar snack. Just go to the counter, it is already paid for (by you).”

    Looks more like there are copilot ads in .NET docs.

    Edit: should have reloaded the page before posting the comment

    How is that an ad? It’s linking to a feature in the IDE.

    Is it also an ad when it links to a section to install something via nuget?

    Edit: This place has the Donald vibes. Ask a question get downvoted but nobody will explain themselves.
