Asking to have a tech forum in 2026 that doesn’t discuss AI is about as much of a Luddite as asking about having tech forum anytime in the past 25 years that doesn’t discuss the internet or the 15 that doesn’t discuss mobile.

Absolutely everything in tech is touched by AI/ML in 2026 except micro controllers/embedded systems

On a personal note, I lead cloud + app dev implementations for a consulting company. I’ve had 5 projects since the beginning of last year and they have all involved Amazon hosted LLMs in some form or fashion.

Every single project I’ve been brought in with at pre sales has also involved Gen AI and/or traditional ML.

There are plenty of tech forums that don't discuss AI. I think your confusion might be the result of you equating tech with "writing code for employers."

By the way, have you seriously never written[1] so much as a single backup script to back up a personal system? You only use GUI backup software?
