@atomicpoet Seems silly. Everyone was shouting that there was a bubble in tech stocks in 1999 too and that time they were right.

Economists are now arguing that an AI bubble is *less* likely precisely because everyone won’t shut up about the possibility of an AI bubble. -
We could be in a bubble.@atomicpoet bitcoin leeds the way, just as it did in 2022. It sniffs out liquidity issues way before the rest of the markets cos it's so liquid and speculative and markets never close.
I think rather than bitcoin being to blame, it's the leading indicator that people don't have any money.
Markets can't go up if ICE have kicked out a bunch of the customers and scared away even more and business have sacked all the workers.
Bitcoin is affected first and hardest, but the root cause is just that nobody has any money to buy because there's a recession everywhere except ai investment which will never be profitable.

Have you had a workshop, memo or other pressure to use AI at your work or school@futurebird Dunno that "mandate" is quite the right word for setting up the system so that every pull request to the codebase gets reviewed by the AI bot, but since it's use is unavoidable that's what I voted.
It's caught some bugs before they're published, and hallucinated many problems which aren't really there.
But all the code we write is being reviewed by robots now, and so the code is written slightly differently to avoid it going on about issues that aren't really there.
People imagine that code is written for the computer to run, but really it's always been written for the programmers to understand. Now it's also written for the ai that has no context or understanding to review.

My wife has strong opinions about men’s fashion.@atomicpoet it's true, you never know when you might need to run away very quickly. Don't get chance to change if there's a fire.
