I don't know about y'all, but I'm trying to find ways to resist what's coming. They want to fuck us over. Don't make it easy!

I think LLM's are incredibly useful in limited circumstances. But it needs to be on-demand, NOT omnipresent.

For example, I'm learning a bit of C#. I was following a tutorial a few weeks ago that had some code I didn't understand. I spent an hour googling and reading documentation, but found nothing. I headed to ChatGPT and asked it what it meant. It gave a clear, easy to understand explanation.

Unfortunately, the industry is going about this all wrong. Google wants to force Gemini on my Pixel. So I nuked Android. Microsoft silently installed Copilot on my laptop without consent. That laptop is now happily running Linux.

Forcing these tools on people will just alienate people like me. In a way, I'm glad it happened. I'm much more satisfied now that these companies are minimized in my life.
