    The head of my agency is a gullible rube who is terrified of being “left behind”, and the head of my department is a grown-up with a family and a career who spends his days off sending AI videos and memes into the work chat.

    I’ve been called into meetings and told I have to be positive about AI. I’ve been told to stop coding and generate (very important) things with AI.

    It’s disheartening. My career is over, because I have no interest in generating mountains of no-intention code rather than putting in the effort to build reliable, good, useful things for our clients. AI dorks can’t fathom human effort and hard work being important.

    I’m working to pay off my debts, and then I’m done. I strongly want to get a job that allows me to be offline.


  • Asking you as it seems like you’re somebody working in the AI field: how can I avoid whatever you and others in your field are doing? Do I just have to go offline?

    I’m not against that idea, but unfortunately I do have debts to pay off at least for the next 45 months or so and my career requires me to use the internet (I’m a web developer). Once the debt is paid, I’m free.
