posted it. Got dunked on for AI slop

101 upvotes and 14 downvotes... dunked?

Anyway, I stopped reading and downvoted after the

Ipso facto, for all the AI “Akshually” pedants, I’ve tagged this as AIP. Politely go fuck yourselves :)

typing the word "politely" or a smiley doesn't make a very rude remark any less rude.

Moreover, splitting the community into a pro-AI faction and an anti-AI one isn't healthy (for the community, whether it's healthy for you is a can of worms that I don't want to open right here and now) and ridiculing the other "faction" can only radicalize things and we already have more than enough of that, both in lemmy and, sadly, also IRL.

So, personally, I donwvoted your post, not your project.

    Sir.... You came to us for these comments this time. Are you just here for a fight? It's not clear what you want from us.

    I don't find your project interesting enough for me, but I was happy you did it. I prefer to keep my infrastructure at home in a controlled environment and take my maps out with me, but I don't use navigation, I just record GPS tracks.

    Now with this post, I'm starting to wonder what your motivations are altogether, particularly considering your responses here.

    I just looked back over your post and your answers there and in here. With respect, your writing style sounds combative. I would never ask you to change it for anyone, but you should understand how it comes across.

    Regarding the AI disclosure stuff, you aren't the first burgeoning dev posting to Lemmy to go through this exact gauntlet of "AI slop" accusations. You are on a platform used by a fairly specific group of people who were pissed off enough to leave reddit, so not the usual general "tech enthusiast" crowd, and a fairly militant bunch.

    The way I see it, AI is 1) already here and 2) just a tool. It's being used in the background of a LOT of projects and there is by now simply no way to cover our ears and pretend it doesn't exist. For better or worse, it's also changing the pace of development, check out how fast PS5 emulation is happening because of AI tooling.

    That said, developer practices that took us 40 years to make standard are still valuable, so folks have legitimate reason to call out your commit and documentation practices. If there is anything I objected to in your project, it might be that.

    Ultimately, a created work starts to live a different life once it is public. You started without sharing it, shared the source, and now you have to make a decision: continue sharing and accept that not everyone will like it, or stop sharing. It's really that simple.
