2026-01-28 08:49:11 +0100 <[exa]> oh wow
2026-01-28 08:46:53 +0100 <int-e> surely that's a common enough term that wikipedia knows it
2026-01-28 08:45:51 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Liamzee> I think AI psychosis is a pleonasm.
2026-01-28 08:45:46 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Liamzee> DeepSeek told me to publish bullshit fantasyland dreaming to Xi Jinping.

2026-01-28 08:44:44 +0100 <[exa]> what's AI psychosis?
2026-01-28 08:40:37 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Liamzee> AI psychosis basically comes from AI being overly agreeable and being grandiose in its response to satisfy RLHF. I wonder if, as much code ends up becoming AI generated, we'll end up having way more boilerplate and less abstraction in the name of "readability" from RLHF, which increases the SLOC productivity of AI.

2026-01-28 08:27:28 +0100 <haskellbridge> <alexfmpe> It ends up as a lot more code, and unmaintainable
2026-01-28 08:27:03 +0100 <haskellbridge> <alexfmpe> We had outsystems, now we have prompts
2026-01-28 08:26:30 +0100 <haskellbridge> <alexfmpe> So a lot of stuff is portrayed as "no code" so as to give non tech decision makers the idea they can become more independent of devs
2026-01-28 08:25:35 +0100 <haskellbridge> <alexfmpe> There's a strong incentive to pitch productivity as "lowering costs you have" rather than "increase output you maybe can't sell"

2026-01-28 08:22:53 +0100 <haskellbridge> <alexfmpe> those don't have the *added value* of being able to get rid of those pesky extra programmers

2026-01-28 08:17:56 +0100 <haskellbridge> <Liamzee> i mean it's the Vercel starter kit. I take back all my whinging about Haskell, some more, I guess, Haskell has issues, but almost everything else is worse. I'm WTF-ing repeatedly at Vercel's refusal to abstract away repetitive code.
2026-01-28 08:11:12 +0100 <haskellbridge> <sm> he had better success with go
