Students forced to use AI or lose Google Search
I will either starve or use AI
There is no in between.
For context I am a senior computer engineering student. I did some internships and talked with many people from big companies. And the thing I realized is I can’t avoid AI anymore.
It’s physically impossible. I resisted for years but every single fucking place is forcing it nowadays. Internships, jobs, any competitions and even my damn professors at uni.
I have yet to meet a single person in real life that does not use AI extensively. No one cares. No one thinks it might be wrong to fuck up so many things for so little (sometimes none) gain.
So I’m at a loss nowadays. I have zero motivation to do anything. I applied for masters but who can guarantee it will be any different? I will either have to use AI like any slop-coder out there or just starve. Even though I’m a hardware guy. I dont even want to think about software devs.
Fuck every single tech CEO. Fuck every single capitalist. So many people complained about the previous generation because of what they left us. But what are we doing now? Are we any better?
Sorry for unorganized and sloppy writing. Just had to dump this somewhere. Have a nice day everyone.
It’s time to block reckless AI IPOs and tax billionaires: We cannot let the billionaire class take unprecedented risks with our future.

AI recruiter questions is one of the worst use cases of AI I've ever seen
Indeed’s AI recruiter questions are effectively this:
“Hey let us harvest your data bit more while giving you no guarantee of ever actually receiving a response back from a person at the company”.
You should NEVER do AI recruiter questions.
Proton Hears their Users and Does the Exact Opposite
In an effort to stem the bleeding from the backlash about their AI usage and their CEO’s meltdown, they decide to do the exact opposite and go all in.
…I’m tired, boss.
Massive AI Data Center Sparks Backlash Despite Clean Energy Promises
Google plans to support 1.4 GW of wind, 200 MW of solar, and 300 MW of battery storage as part of its proposed 780-MW Minnesota data center development. Opposition remains strong in Pine Island, where residents have raised concerns about water consumption, environmental impacts, and the long-term implications of the development.

Suicide of a Nation
"Come and take it"
Opened inkscape for the first time and put together something now that these ai companies are just flat out saying that we don’t deserve ram.

Made this wojak, feel free to use it!
Fun fact: I almost wrote the audio driver for his MS-DOS game. Maybe I’ll still write one, but for a different project (and one that is primarily for the OPL2/3 instead of Tandy Audio with optional FM support).
"Owning hardware is wasteful": Slop Altman wants your RAM in the cloud where it can be rented back to you.
These people can't fucking do anything
Goddamn. Imagine being so creatively bankrupt that you can’t even write a simple birthday message for a child without Robot Daddy’s help. I’m so glad the AI bubble is coming crashing down, it couldn’t have come sooner.
The amount of wasteful spending for data centers is huge and parasitic to the rest of the economy

They're getting desperate for real intelligence. I guess that's what happens when you don't have any of your own.
“Paid collaboration” my ass. More like, let me pay you a pittance and sell your knowledge for 100x.
