In the entire history of this shit it has never once become better. Y’all continually move goalposts and hope for something that cannot come to fruition because the whole premise is flawed.
Take a stand or shut the fuck up. Judge a thing on the merits of what it is TODAY, and re-evaluate when a new version comes along.

@octothorpe When I covered the telecom industry, every developer of 5G core network software was anxious to sell AI as a cure all for the problems involving network scalability, reliability, and service quality.
You can see what a quantum impact AI's had on 5G service rollouts. *snort*
It's kind of amazing how we keep falling for the same horseshit.

@flargh @octothorpe The problem is, *WE* don't fall for the horseshit. We, (by we, I mean the three of us specifically) pretty much never fall for it, but get to enjoy being given endless side-eye as ‘those old curmudgeons’.
