@0adaspopod76121 @Drew_When17 @GhostsSoup Lowering the barrier to entry does not lower the skill ceiling. The best creatives can now make a feature film or AAA game that previously required a million-dollar budget before AI. That’s a good thing.

@RealJMcAfreak So you accept the challenge or you are all talk?

[Mick Meehan Software Developer @MickMeehan_AI]

@exRSaddict @GhostsSoup How irrational.

[Mick Meehan Software Developer @MickMeehan_AI]

@AyyBoj @AndrewOnXYZ @GhostsSoup You don’t seem to comprehend the point and take an obtuse, literal interpretation of what was said, like a lower-level LLM.

The point is that chess AIs beat all humans, yet that doesn’t stop humans playing chess for fun.

@RealJMcAfreak I gave a challenge: let’s put your code against my AI slop code. You choose the spec and the metric. Talk is cheap; actions speak louder. Prove you can code better than AI. Pro tip: you can’t. 😛

@HunterWarrior08 @GhostsSoup This is my hobby, you can’t play here!

@pain44918298 @GhostsSoup Sure, that could happen, but so could any software download from an untrusted website. The cybersecurity aspect has nothing to do with people crashing out because AI is better at decompiling and coding than they are.

Powerful institutions are trying to control AI, and that’s real. But that doesn’t settle whether the technology ultimately centralizes power or spreads it.

The printing press didn’t eliminate concentrated power, but it widened the circle of people who could participate in intellectual life, despite censorship. AI pushes that further by giving people not just information, but tools to understand and use it.

Someone without a research department, a programming team, or a tutor can get help learning, writing, analyzing, and building. It’s not magic, but it’s still a democratizing force. “Diffusion by design”: models can be copied, and downloadable versions can run on personal hardware, so access need not depend on one central provider. With affordable access, competition, open models, and sensible policy, AI’s long-term effect leans toward ordinary empowerment, even if control battles continue.

@bokuHaruyaHaru @camhberg This is wild

@dilfsonic All the disdain I see comes from woke lefty anti-AI bots who want me to mill myself for vibe-coding a computer game. 🤷‍♂️

@kingepic22 “Actual decomps” lol

@tsisartbysekai I made a fun game with Opus and that makes you depressed? Mmm k. Please take your meds.

Remember playing Dune 2 after school? I built a no-install browser RTS for that old desert-scrap feeling — harvesters, worms, aircraft, 8-player spice conflict: http://45.82.72.93:8787

@Urza1234 @wickedeye_ AI keeps improving very fast, this will be a solved problem.

@suvikyi After a few hundred prompts on what planet are you not a game designer?

[Mick Meehan Software Developer @MickMeehan_AI]

@suvikyi This is too well thought out and articulate for anti AI bros…

[Mick Meehan Software Developer @MickMeehan_AI]

@jsstansel What about this?

[Mick Meehan Software Developer @MickMeehan_AI]

@luckeyfaraday This…
