Dafuq #AWS? Before I even have a chance to read your documentation, you suggest your Absolute Insanity creates a "summary" for me so I can work faster??
You don't even know what I'm after. Why would anyone visit a document only for it to be "summarized" creating a large possibility that key contents the reader is actually after, is left out.
Even a human made summary, without knowing what the reader is after, has a decent chance to omit information the reader might be interested in. #FuckAI

Every day, more and more lists and documents use emojis instead of item number or bullet point.

If, in order to kill the GenAI disease, we must revert several years of Unicode Consortium updates, I'm all for it.

But... But... But.... If I don't use "AI" how will I ever demolish the environment while churning out mountains of garbage based on stolen content and forgetting how to actually do anything?!?!?!

"I used AI to....", is nothing more than, "Listen I'm not an asshole but....", for the 21st Century.

Yes let's keep forcing users to visit slow loading pages full of ads, cookie popups, and disorganized information because that's how things have always been and we like it that way. Who cares what they want!

i might write a little manifesto called Don't Say AI. my main point with it will be that #ai is a vague, mostly-marketing-bullshit term that enables misunderstanding and exploitation of that misunderstanding, so people should generally use more specific words instead.

it's kind of like the view that we should stop saying "content."
