"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

It is highly customisable though, you could make it work and look more or less any way you wish.
As a UI professional, I kind of resent the idea of something being intuitive. Nothing is truly intuitive, because what we call intuition is just pattern recognition. An interface is only intuitive because it works in a manner we expect, that's to say the interface designers have replicated known patterns. A pattern being well known doesn't necessarily mean it's good.
I stopped using Windows for a few years and now I feel like an idiot anytime I need to do something. It doesn't feel "intuitive." If someone gets their start with blender (like many do nowadays because Blender is a stellar example of FOSS done right) then other software is less likely to feel intuitive to them.
Blender is also a bit of a jack of all trades. Video editing, audio editing, storyboarding, sculpting, animation, 2D animation/illustration, texture painting, shaders. At least they ripped out the game engine some years back.
I'm not saying that it doesn't have a learning curve, certainly it does. What I am saying, is that your unwillingness to learn doesn't mean that the software is bad. It certainly is not.
Yeah, that's what intuitive means...
I'm not saying that either. It IS bad, regardless of my willingness to learn. I tried multiple times. It sucks. I'm sure it works fine. But it's clunky as shit, and difficult to navigate.
Other software does those same things with much less friction
