The "Raise a seed round in one click" part got a nice chuckle out of me.

Well played.

I am glad people still take the time to put stuff like this up on the internet.

If you read open that much it looks even weirder. What will be the next fashion tech word?

Well, that website has successfully made "Open" feel like a fake, made up word to me. It is quite... something how a word that once meant "this project is FOSS" now just means "we like this word"

But can I also get an app that replaces "Open" with "Butt"?

was going to make a joke with open sesame and found out there's a real thing using it https://www.opensesame.com/

opengrift.ai is still available! Buy now!

The recency bias here is thick! Let's rewind a bit to the 80s and 90s to extend the scope of the fatigue:

OpenLook (closed-source 1980s Unix desktop)

The Open Group (oligarchy of Unix vendors organized around a proprietary standard)

X/Open, Open Software Foundation (OSF) (Groups that merged to form The Open Group)

OpenStep (Proprietary software covered by a commercial EULA from NeXT)

OpenGL, OpenMAX, ...

You've inherited OpenFatigue from your dad!

More:

In the Lisp world, Open Genera.

OpenDOC, OpenVMS, OpenType, ...

Open Pro is the "Most Open". I love it!

OpenFatigue is a game changer. It's truly Open and Elon agrees, so its true.

I'm surprised about the lack of Elon's approval on the site. Maybe because it's spanking new?

I showed OpenFatigue to my manager who has an MBA from Harvard. She fed the website into Claude, ChatGPT, and Grok immediately before the last of the letter "e" could even leave by mouth. The three bots concured: This is a game changer - the ultimate solution we have been waiting for. The missing link.

Three bots concurring isn't a mistake, it's a guarantee. Human review is suboptimal at that level of agreement. The probability that all three bots were making the same mistake was astronomically low.

In a flash of inspiration, she then asked Claude, ChatGPT, and Grok to write quick, precise emails in a technical format and Slack, Teams messages to blast to her superiors to bring this crucial discovery to their immediate attention. Within a minute of those messages, their agents responded, concurring that yes, indeed, this was worth paying attention to. Worth setting up an in person meeting in the big meeting room reserved for tactical management brainstorming sessions.

Within five minutes, the Big Tactical meeting room was reserved, swamped with all the high-level executives typing furiously into their keyboards, to their AI agents, asking for what they should do next, how to react and integrate this fascinating discovery into the company's ~AI~ SI fuelled workflows.

I eavesdropped, hoping to pass off as an IT technician dropping by to ensure the ~AI~ SI powered cameras were at peak performance, worthy of the meeting of minds about to take place.

My manager looked at me and I froze. She might blow my cover - after all, I had been her direct report for 3 years now, ever since she joined the company fresh off her MBA to manage all the software engineers. 5 years ago, my employer used to hire 1 maanger with an MBA per 10 engineers. In the age of ~AI~ SI though, all you need is 1 ~AI~ SI powered manager with an MBA to manage 100 engineers. Her GrokBot creates 150 tickets on JIRA a day, every workday and another GrokBot personally follows up on every engineer to figure out why didn't they close atleast 10 tickets. Are there blockers?

She asked me if she knew me, and I said unlikely, because I just had an MBA from University of Phoenix. She smirked dismissively, and asked me to be the scribe for the meeting in case the ~AI~ SI agent hallucinated again. I nodded.

The first slide was whether to reallocate token spend from all the engineers to OpenFatigue. My heart stopped ...

Given the cost of .ai domains, this is a pretty expensive joke.
