Lutris is AI slop now

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Am I allowed to have an unpopular narrative here?
There are levels of vibe coding, and it's possible to use AI without vibe coding at all.
If you're very targeted in what you're having the AI do and you carefully review the code, it can be a great tool.
For example, "make this html grid sortable and add a download button that creates a csv file." You know exactly what this does, it's self contained, and it's something you know can just be copied from stack overflow and applied to your code.
That works, and works well.
"Create an app that..." is vibe coded slop.
Even if this works, you'll be stealing someone else's code without authorship attribution for anything that's a non-trivial algorithm.
Let me introduce you to Stackoverflow...or well, what it used to be.
