Why are the robots making art? Why are the humans packing the boxes?…
MO: Make high cost human low cost human
Notepad++ is just, a top tier app
TBH, tech companies showing AI down our throats is still no good, open-source alternative existing or not.
I would be happy if more and normal people were actually mad at ai.
Normal people are losing themselves in AI. I’ve seen multiple instances of people using LLM to fact check someone. Endless “uhh, but I asked ChatGPT and it said blablabla” making me lose faith in humanity.
Honestly its not much different from a google search and reading some nonsense written by someone who has no authority in the subject. As long as it reinforces their belief itll be true in their eyes
Yeah it’s become impossible to have philosophical discussions, although this truly does seem limited to the virtual world (i.e. via text, online, etc.). If I were to go have some drinks with a friend and they busted out some LLM to take part in our discussion I would chastise them endlessly for it.
Wait who doesn’t already use Notepad++? It’s even part of the standard install image at my job, and we have MS365 accounts already
Son, I was using Emacs before Notepad++ even existed.
Tap for spoiler
Oh shit, I looked it up and it’s literally true. Notepad++ was first released in 2003 and I’m pretty sure I used Emacs for the first time in 2002.
People are allowed to want what they’re comfortable with to not be riddled with llms
You can do VSCode, which is FOSS, contains integrated AI, and you can even complain about Micro$oft at the same time as a bonus!
VSCodium
It’s all fun and games until ai is mad at you
i’m still mad at np++ for the version that supported the french media outlet that was an attack victim. not for that but for sneaking in an auto-typing text tab that looked SO MUCH like a virus especially since it was not in the original release notes.
Yeah the dev is notorious for sneaking in irrelevant political virtue signaling bullshit. I get that they want to do good to the world, but there are so many ways to do that without alienating your users. For example, partnering up with a charity. You know. Like VIM does.
What if the open source software is forcing people to see AI?
Fork!
Fork people who come up with it right in the hand.
