"Unless you have been living under a rock for the last few years, you probably
have seen the same massive surge I’ve seen in the application of artificial
intelligence (AI) to pretty much every problem out there, in software testing,
in software development, and in life in general.
Now, I am all for finding and developing new solutions to existing problems,
but boy, am I tired of AI, of how it is used and of how it is marketed.
Every tech fart smelling of ‘AI’ these days is almost instantly labeled as a
‘game changer’, only to be replaced by the next ‘pivotal’ and ‘revolutionary’
‘solution’ the next week.
Yes, I realize that thinking like this and writing this make me a Neo-Luddite
in your eyes. That’s fine. Everybody is entitled to their opinion, and this is
mine. Feel free to stop reading if you’re not interested.
Please note that I don’t necessarily have anything against AI itself. I’m
pretty sure that there are some areas where applying AI might be useful. I use
AI myself, too, albeit sparingly and with caution. That doesn’t change the fact
that I’m really, really tired of most of it.
Allow me to elaborate."
Via Esther Schindler, who wrote "I could shorten this to: ChatGPT-written prose
has a smell. If you don’t have anything to say, ChatGPT won’t say it for you.
It’ll make you THINK that it’ll say it for you. The author’s conference example
captures this quite well."
