@1password Fucking hell. You are using LLM slop code now? Great, now I need to migrate.
-
If you're still clinging to the idea that LLMs are a bad tool for engineers, you're going to get left behind.
️To elaborate a little more; automation always helped people to write better and more code. LLMs are just the next generation of automation tools. Besides writing code, in my experience it can help engineers understand and learn about certain topics.
I believe engineers who effectively integrate LLMs into their workflow will be more productive and produce better code compared to those who don't. This is similar to how using Ansible for automation helps with faster and more reliable builds, or how auto completion in an IDE improves code quality.
Furthermore, the entry barrier into IT, engineering, and coding fields has considerably lowered, which I consider a positive development.

And no, it's not magic, it's not 'intelligent', it's a predictive algorithm, trained with data built by actual creative and smart human beings.

Wtf is the point of this? Agentic = deletes critical data and I don't need that thanks. My subscription just renewed but I'm going to need to find a new password manager now. -

@1password remember when nerds spent 40 years telling everyone how intelligent they were, and then they were put in charge of everything, and it turns out they're the most gullible dipshits who ever lived

@1password I've used 1Password since V2, advocated for it online & at MUGs, and I find this extremely concerning.
I get it. The VCs want more money; there's the AI hype machine that seemingly makes money fall from the sky.
Come on. 1Password has been the rock to which your users have placed trust in.
Everyone knows AI makes bad code. Programmers under pressure from management have to work faster *will* miss things. This is a fast path to a serious security breech (and of user trust).

@1password Bye. Dropping this service immediately. Good job giving me a reason to move my family plan away. Time to check on ChiPass progress.

@1password yeah I think it's time to move on from this product. Will be looking at alternatives.

If that is the kind of problem you enjoy working on, we are hiring.

For a shared option, I have no idea yet…

@1password there are a whole lot of responses to this that show me they didn’t read the article. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

@1password I bought my first 1Password License in 2009. Upgraded up until 1Password 6. The cloud-forcing and this sloppification are just the nails in the coffin of what once was the objectively best solution.

@1password oh so maybe this is why 1Password has been so unstable for multiple colleagues recently...

@1password Why I jumped ship. It wasn’t the price hike.
-
@1password Pfuh… lucky me that I recently switched to @protonprivacy Pass. However, this now forces me to also cancel my subscription for my family. Yayy now I can move all my family members to something else, that means many hours of explaining and work.
@NE555 @1password @protonprivacy I'm sure the proton devs use LLMs as well for development, so I would question if that makes a difference

@1password
Please don’t. Password management is one place I want as little stochastic parroting as possible. At the very least, stop fucking BRAGGING about how you’re using the plagiarism engine to make your tool less secure. Yours is just about the only tool I still trust even a little. -
