You guys are the worst. I’m now convinced all of you complaining have nothing going on. Every industry is using this shit. I was just watching this video of a big musician YouTuber using a vibe coded app that lets you create guitar tones by what you tell it. Kojima did an ad with Prada using it. You can be the curmudgeon all you fucking want but go do it to the big guys and quit fighting this bullshit culture war against low hanging fruit. You miserable fucks.
So I work for a landscaping company. How is AI going to help me move piles of dirt, or rake up leaves?
We already tried using it to generate site plans/maps and communicate with clients, and it's worse than useless for both of those things. What else you got for me?
BTW, I'm not genuinely asking for business advice here, I'm pushing back against your assertion that every industry is using this shit. I'd go as far as to say that AI has no relevance to most workplaces.
"Vibe coded app that lets you create guitar tones by what you tell it" buddy, I've played guitar for years, and this sounds silly as hell to me. Describing the tone I want in English words sounds much more difficult than just twisting some knobs. I think the youtuber guy may just be trying to sell a product.
TL:DR. AI summary says he's saying AI is popular
