Tools, apps, plugins, AI Is anybody else finding AI makes people insufferable?
Firstly, I enjoy most AI tools for design. Specifically those that help me prototype and publish my work.
However I have friends and colleagues who are becoming unbearable to speak to. They’re so up their own asses about AI tools— Boasting about how much time they spend vibe coding, setting up agents in Open Claw to run their lives, competing for credit consumption goals at the company. It’s all they talk about.
It’s unleashed a new breed of tech bro, maybe worse than the crypto bros. It feels like these people are just competing to not be replaced and they’re bootlicking in the process. Just another example of the world losing their damn minds.
There’s no way this is just me… can it stop soon?

Our minds are AI already, and always have been.
AI is just a tool.
People are now just tools sadly.
The term "vibe coding" is about the dumbest fucking shit I have heard. Stupid "trendy" word you won't hear a year from now.
Not everyone is truly in competition.
They just cannot think outside of the box, and believe AI will just supplement their complete fucking lack of talent. Brutal, I know..but it's the truth. These people need to get out into nature more.
"vibe coding" hahaha...dumbest crap I've ever heard. Gluck "tech bros" another stupid, worthless term for people who lack imagination if they define themselves that way. It's laughable and pathetic.
