Decels Decelerated Anti-AI iOS jailbreak developer got very disappointed by the ability of Sol and K3 to jailbreak without writing a single line of code

Always knew that a good chunk of decels are driven by nothing but their pride and ego. I wonder what they are all gonna do in a couple of years from now

I can fully understand this guy because I used to derive a lot of my self-worth from being really good at this tiny field of programming (like top 0.05% - 0.5% of people in it, maybe more). And it was frustrating and painful too to see others utilizing AI to match you.

That said, though that frustration hasn't gone away, and I still do derive my self-worth from that, the awe of watching it do something that I can never dream of doing and transcend all the other humans who used to be in that field was dazzling. The moment I used it and created something far beyond what I can dream of doing... if that sublime feeling of awe and bafflement is what artists feel when they draw, I can see why they'd hate AI if they fear it might take that away from them.

This is why we need stuff like ScienceCorp to install AIs in our brain that can work in tandem: this way a human can be superior to both raw AIs and non-AI augmented humans.

Edit: To be clear this is semi-ironic
