While I would normally give the /e/OS founder the benefit of the doubt, it looks like the AI nonsense has pushed him off deep end.

Over on Mastodon, Duval announced the release of a new version of ElixirOffice.

The project is 100% vibecoded with no human contributions. Just human supervision.

I almost wrote that things "spiraled" but that is a loaded word. Duval defended himself.

Made a comment about "idiots":

(I guess idiots is people that don't like AI)

And told another user to "Go Fuck Themself":

Briefly, I considered a hacked account. But...

AI is the most powerful technology ever available for humanity and I wish the good people embrace it too. Not only the bad.

In his own words, he is living in a different world:

It's also getting really tiring having to swap part of my stack every few weeks.

At least for email I now have it with a custom domain and can more easily switch if that becomes necessary... Changing phone OS is always a pain, even with root&backup solutions.

This one hurts especially, your customers are people that picked a phone for ethical reasons, they raise ethical concerns, you tell them to go fuck themselves... And I don't even know with all these things, maybe I could even grudgingly live with a product where they use LLMs "responsibly" or something, but then they always have to go off the rails with the emotional maturity of a 5 year old and how could I trust a company with such a person in charge...
