Practitioners step back from the internet and AI
What happened
On October 11, a Hacker News front-page post rounded up several practitioners who recently announced they are quitting social media, stopping their use of AI, or leaving the internet altogether. Salma said goodbye to the web and stepped away from developer relations work. Chad Whitacre wrote a letter on a typewriter to announce his retirement and plans to make a religious-themed zine. Brett Codes published "I no longer use AI," with a video. The author wishes them well and admits missing their voices online. The post does not say how these plans played out.
