It’s 2025. We have AI that can generate fully functional applications and feature length films. But somehow we still settle for printers that LITERALLY JUST DO THEIR FUCKING JOB. 😂

I only like the old printers. The ones that let me scan money. Not send an alert to the FBI if I try to like any modern one.
They can print money out of thin air, but you cant.
The screwdriver of our era
Can ai change the printer cartridges, I think not.
You know it is always the person that says “who needs printers anymore”…”um actually can you print something for me”
I have had the same printer since 2008. It has one job and it does it perfectly 😁
"functional applications" haha
they are just like photocopies, complete with the grainy bits
you should try to get an LLM to write a nostr relay in Go or Rust or C++
have fun!
javascript is like a dot matrix printer
real programming languages are like 1200dpi dye sublimation printouts
the AI can't store that much detail unless you feed it that much more data and have that much more size of the model (i think maybe it would sorta work ok if you had a 1tb model
> This all sucks and AI will make it even shittier in ways everyone understands and no one seems likely to stop because noticing it too much would lead a number of tech executives to consider the consequences of their decisions.
