I'm starting to notice AI power users communicating in a shorthand tech-speak I find unintelligible. I genuinely cannot follow the individual points in this article or what the overall arc is.
Is this something that was already part of web dev or is it new?
It's not the users doing the communication, it's their AIs.
And you, as a human, were not meant to read it - you're supposed to instead feed it back into your own AI agent and have it create a groundbreaking new AI startup based on it. Give it your Cloudflare credentials, sit back, sip a latte, and within an hour or two you'll have a beautiful, fully functional website, complete with fancy fonts, 30 different "No X. No Y. Just Z" taglines, and a $20 monthly subscription, ready to show off to investors. You'll be a highly successful entrepreneur by the end of the week.
I regard myself as pro-AI, and I find this article is all over the place. It's just trying to promote their SaaS. It's clear they didn't even read what the LLM generated before posting it, as evidenced by this line:
"99.9% uptime (CloudWatch, Feb to Sep, insert your real number)"
This user also appears to have a Reddit account from 3 years ago where they claim to be a half human cyborg.

It's just slop. Acknowledge, move on, and find something better to spend your time on.
We're in a weird uncanny valley state of AI writing where it's barely comprehensible, but makes people feel productive so they shove it everywhere, including where it's not needed.
At some point, either:
1. People will realize that this is a waste of time
2. Models will get better and this will be remembered as a blip in history

I think that's all I need to know, personally.

Everything else was written by hand and I made sure to not use AI even for structure (which I usually do)
It's settled. Either I use AI or not people will always say the same thing
