Do those goal posts you keep moving come with wheels, or do you have to carry them by hand?

I just wish people would leave more comments about how they don’t like AI. If AI is not gone by 2030, the only reason is because people didn’t comment about it enough.

Yeah, it sounds great on paper. But I won’t hold my breath.

I got 4 paragraphs in, and still no sign of what the dirty deal was.

Anybody got a tldr other than “AI bad”?

Problem, possibly. Just not because of enshitification, since that has a very specific meaning.

As much as they are making an asshat of themselves here, I fail to see how that’s relevant.

So are you starting to see the issue here, or do you think that my bike is an online platform?

Do you really think that’s the definition of that term? “something that no longer works”?

By that logic, my bike has been enshitified because it has a flat tire.

Sincerely, what did you expect? I mean, obviously it’s hyped right now, but let’s be real - AI is not going to go away anymore.

I dunno, I was fine with GNU Image Manipulation Program.

I guess his flavour of tainment just doesn’t jam well with me. Like I said, it’s not the subject matter, but the content just feels needlessly padded. Compare this to videos by Tom Scott, CGP Grey, Matt Parker, Steve Mould, etc. Those videos are far more dense with content It reminds me of how mythbusters gets so much better once you take out the narrator and the endless recaps…

Regarding clickbait - to me a title this one is just another symptom of that disregard for the viewers time. Being coy and mysterious about the subject matter to lure people in. And yeah, hat’s probably why it works.

I agree that the production values are incredibly high. But I just can’t stand being treated like a simpleton who needs drama to be tricked into watching videos, it feels very patronising.

I feel the same way. I feel like I would love his subject matters he picks, but he’s being so disrespectful of the viewers time that I can’t stand it. Just the clickbait title alone is enough to put me off.
