I think he just started lying and then continued lying to cover up his previous lies. And he had a deep-pocketed backer in the form of Calvin Ayre.

Shoes aren’t rational
Smearing the developer as “ai-brained” is hateful.
wake up babe new slur just dropped
A well-respected terminal emulator for the Mac decides to slather on AI sauce, and most users are not happy. But there are others who are outraged that slathering AI sauce onto a product is even seen as a negative. Let's take a break from HN to take a look at the tortured souls on lobste.rs who won't let this aggression stand, man:

archive link in case mods decide to nuke it
Personal favs:
This is the sort of hatred and resentment that is uncomfortable to see on a public forum.
Hi, this is the internet, you must be new here.
I’m mostly checked out of here as a result until the mods get it under control.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Edit as a bonus, here's the HN discussion. Same situaton there, the promptfondlers are surprised everyone is mad
Man I miss n-gate
Surprise Aella reference in those HN comments! (well, surprise that one commenter noted "the Bay Area's most overrated escort", and a replier directly inferred it was her)
Now I wonder if there's an app rating Bay Area escorts...
Also someone bringing up "population collapse" which is a recent(?) right-wing/techbro trope. Everything about everyone expressing worries about "sub replacement birth rates" screams "we must prevent people with wombs from making their own decisions about whether to have kids".
I agree that it's fishy in this instance, but dig around in the "smol web" subculture (gemini protocol, etc) and you'll find plenty of youngs who live in shells... cf. tilde.town
Finally the realization that academia is just an industry producing artifacts (published papers) and not anything as abstract as "science" and "knowledge" gets the tool it deserves
Github - data-to-paper: AI-driven scientific research
I'm sure this will be fine and not cause any issues whatsoever.
How is having an SDF account weird? Because it's for olds? Or they're hardcore BSDers?
It took you this long to suss that???
He's clearly slurped a juice too many.
