no, it doesn't upset me. I am open for discussion, there might be things I miss and don't understand. I am just trying to get why it's been pushed so hard lately and if the benefits are really there. Sorry, if I sounded upset to you, but I am trying to be really civil and just genereally curious

Well, I'm sorry as well. I mistakenly assumed you were being confrontational.

There are a lot of people who have negative knee jerk reactions to any AI stuff, new workflows (I'll agree there is a lot of garbage being shilled in this space), etc., and I jumped the gun by lumping you into that group.

Nope, I am doing my master thesis on finetuning llms at 36, so I am into this stuff, but it’s been very weird lately. I’ve been self-taught dev and I definitely was missing computer science concepts so excited to fill the gaps, although the timing wasn’t perfect.

Good conversation! Great pushback against my arguments. That’s what I signed on with hacker news and missing that spirit recently
