Well. Buzz lightyear is still alive at 96

Yeah that’s my point, actually.

Their competitor is in the middle of a months long mistake. All they had to do was just chill.

True but most of the value of these LLMs comes from ingesting data produced by the public, with a healthy amount of copyrighted data.

Would you be in favour of class action lawsuits to compensate for the intellectual theft instead?

This is funny but I want to remind people not to discuss the STI diagnosis of your brother’s girlfriend. On twitter.

The biggest things I can see are:

• the AI just pumps out text. There’s a bias for producing more code, when something more succinct or terse or a workaround exists
• the AI has little idea of standards and usually doesn’t have the architectural context in mind. This produces solutions in the local maximum and not the global maximum. Maybe there are other places that feed more context into the model/provide examples that make it better.

So basically, it writes junior level code which is fine but it needs serious review by someone who has seen better examples. I fight with AI models all the time when they provide snippets because I’ve seen a bunch of different implementations and know how to poke it.

Also, we should keep in mind that these models are going to get super expensive soon, so the scope of use cases that are worthwhile will drop

Much nicer people TBH

A lot of nonsense apologia in these comments. Motivated reasoning and carefully cherry-picked sources. A fixation on the long history of western imperialist propaganda. Edgy contrarianism, ultimately.

What you won’t see much of:

Direct and lengthy criticism of China (the kind that isn’t just damage control)

Citations from respectable research journals

Admissions that Marxist / socialist / etc nations have their own propaganda machines

Teens and Chinese agents, it is late, go to bed, you’ve got TikTok tomorrow.

Agree completely but I wanted to add: you can also get into an incomprehensible mess without vibing. Just follow the serverless flask tutorial, start writing raw SQL, and away you go!

I asked Claude today about why a coworker was getting errors and it almost exploded.

Good summary.

I’ve been working a while and think the latter things combined with the unfamiliarity of MDM/IT management tools in Linux has stopped much wider adoption.

So many industries just MUST run a few key apps that were designed and battle tested in windows long ago, as in wet lab science, manufacturing, and medicine to name a few I’ve seen.

Also stability (sorry but it’s hard to beat a MacBook).

It seems more like adults virtue signalling to each other than crafting legislation grounded in reality.

Everyone knows this was never going to stop kids. It’s weirdly controlling.

That having been said, if you’re resorting to all the stuff I would have done as a tech-oriented kid to …access Meta products? Then I don’t understand you.

It’s the hungry hustler, Afro-maaaaanggg

Valve is going to be a significant contributor to the death of Windows. Legit one man’s integrity is going to bring an end to a literal monopoly as adjudicated in the late 90’s. Hail gaben.

True but this can be acquired. I love watching fire marshals whetting their moustaches with glee before they shut down some stupid dangerous event.

Happened to me at an Indian restaurant. Owner asked me where I was from then told me she was giving me medium. They’re out of business now.

Sick! Are there any more of these?

Thomas Piketty agrees with you in Capital
