Writer and engineer Ploum refuses to interact with AI, LLMs or chatbots in any form, and with humans who act as meat interfaces to algorithms. He argues writing is thinking, and won't read AI output. He criticizes generated images as cheap and uncanny, and refuses to run generated code, contending good code is knowledge and LLM-generated code makes projects unmaintainable, predicting collapse within years. He says chatbots actively prevent student learning, with every case performing worse, and now requires all student submissions be entirely their own.
