  • Yeah, I once had ChatGPT lead me down a rabbit hole chasing a windows network share issue that I had absolutely no business troubleshooting. At least I knew enough to test one change at a time and verify functionality with the concerned parties before moving to the next change, so nothing broke catastrophically like this, but looking back on the experience scared the shit outta me. Never fixed the issue, but the slop machine had me believing I was just on the cusp of fixing everything the whole time.

    I know for a fact that there are people way dumber than me, way more powerful than me, and way more willing to eat up this garbage psuedo-technical sycophancy all at the same time, and that sends a cold shiver down my spine.

    This shit needs to die. The sooner the better.
