Like any pyramid scheme, the only one who succeed are the ones who came in first, few lucky ones, but that's all.

This is a sort of pyramid scheme relying on exploiting desperate PhD students. Even the reviewers are PhD students who don't even understand the paper. We're supposed to have 1 month to decide if a paper is worth if, not even knowing the topic. Open your fucking eyes.

This graphics community makes me sick. The science is great, but this if a fucking mafia. Trading names on papers for internships, favors, citations etc... When I see people no better than me making I sane money at Nvidia and shit, I'm sick.
I reviewed a bunch of papers and this is a JOKE.

At this point I use chatGPT just to pretend that I work. This shitty company deservia shitty job

I try to stop using chatGPT and try to draw instead. It's pain but I feel like I'm on the right path.

I write. It's all so bad. It's messy.chatGPT does way better than me. But at least it's me

I started with u installing all the addiction designed apps. Instagram, tiktok...

Feels like I got ripped off the Matrix. I'm going to the library and ready 1 book a day to compensate this horrible need for entertainment.

I'd like to find a community of people who share my opinion. Yesterday when browsing the internet quite far, I find old internet forum discussing poetry. God those people and those comment were SMART back then. Now it's all addiction and BAIT.

What can we do ?

I kinda miss this old internet where everything was so genuine. Now it's all AI slop, being careful of what we watch and what we like to not upset the great algorithm. Optimizing all the time. Numbing our emotions with addictive behaviours. Since when addiction and computer science met ?

There are two types of objectives when building an app.

1- provide a service
2- generate addiction to maximize screen time and ad revenue

In which category does LinkedIn is ?

LinkedIn is NOT MEANT TO HELP YOU !!!!!!!

Stop doom scrolling for a job. Use your network. Write bold and human emails

In this world of optimisation and averageness, the best we can do is cultivate our singularities.

No more tiktok. No more averaging our minds for the profit of few greedy companies.

Internet and CS used to be the sanctuary of nerdy artists and passionates.

AI will make work change. Get rid of the tideous, but we I'll have to reconsider how we work and how we value work.

But now the world is still questioning, and paralyzed

It's a matter of months before people start realizing AI is hitting a wall.

Great art and engineering innovates , and don't make do with averages and likely hood.

Great art and engineering breaks the averages, it reshapes the vision of the world, it breaks the dogmas.

For investors out there, employers hesitating if you still need humans behind computers.

The code you want to sell is not the output of a single prompt. Its a complex history, a fight, compromises, and innovations. nothing AI can do.

If AI could do it, we'd have cured cancer by now.

It takes an infinite group of monkeys with typewriters to write the Bible.
Can AI write the Bible?
- If the Bible is part of the training data, yes
- Else, AI no better than monkey

In the space of the infinite possibilities,the Bible is one.The result of a long and complex human création.
No prompt

This economy is so fucked up. Counter intuitive, corrupted. Techbros selling bullshit, making more than a nurse is a non sense.

How are we supposed to evolve in a world like that ?
Be a monk ? Make vow of poverty and just do what we like ?

We can't afford a house ! So that's not an option

The corporate world ain't better. Shady outsourcing practices. Kafkaesque. Nothing is produced. Just bullshit.
In my opinion, the only entities that produce value are startups and universities.
Looks at AI, look at internet. All startup / university projects.

Academia is also SO corrupted. Since big tech started hiring professors, things are not the same anymore.
People get their internship at Meta without even passing interview. They just have to put someone's name in their paper as co-author, in exchange for an internship.
We're talking 10k/month

Good thing with the CS market collapsing, is that all the opportunistic techbros will leave. Only the real passionate people will stay. No more hustle, more real science. Those 6 figures were a non sense anyway. Coding fuking APIs make me worth more than a nurse ? Really ?
