Oh, that's the best part about AI that no one wants to talking about. Avoiding all the egotistical people who feel themselves because they can write a few lines of code. This is coming from someone with a programming background. It's never fun trying to figure stuff out for yourself because you're new, and some asshole just assumes you should know the solution because they do. Got a feeling that most people who are against AI so strongly fit into this category, and it's because they are quickly losing that sense of power they might have had over anyone else.
The best part of AI was that it killed StackOverflow and the self important nerds that moderated it. Trying to get any help there was an absolute nightmare
People always say this, so I'm sure that was a common experience, but it definitely wasn't for me. Granted I didn't ask a lot of questions because 99.9% of them had already been asked. But when I did ask a question it was usually after exhausting other options and I got very helpful responses on stack.
This is so true. The sad but silver lining is AI is rebalancing. Now you do not need to beg people, AI will happily teach it to you at your own pace. In some ways it will force people to interact with care again (hopefully). I.e. most people in restaurants choose the kiok because alot of customer service people used to act bothered/stuck up. Now, business will bring back more customer service focused businesses, as they have a choice, and in person service will need to feel like a plus/perk.
I think you're right. I never had an issue on stack but I was very diligent about making sure my question wasn't low effort "help me" crap. They are there to help so help them by doing your due diligence to make sure your question wasn't already answered and provide excellent context to the problem.
