Poe's law is making it hard to tell if your comment is sarcasm or AI-induced psychosis.
>I’m curious if that matters if humans are never going to even read this code? If by never even read you don't include attaching a debugger to solve an issue. 1,000 global mutable variables would make debugging anything…
Thanks!
Got any specific examples? I believe you, I'd just like some concrete examples to show my coworkers.
>Dude, stop with “slop”. No. It's a useful term, just like "clickbait" was 10 to 15 years ago (and still is). Trying to police other people calling it slop is reminiscent of Microsoft autobanning anyone using the term…
>I hear a lot of complaints about bun but nothing concrete about what broke in the migration. Because it hasn't been released yet (at least not outside of some unstable branches). You can find some criticism of the…
Given that LLMs are capable of generating code from open source projects verbatim (and entire books like Harry Potter verbatim) and no one gives a damn it seems like copyright is essentially a dead letter, legally…
Assuming it all works 50k scanners running nonstop at 60 seconds a scan is 2.1 billion scans a month. Assuming they aren't lying/exaggerating about anything, and assuming there is no downtime/setup/etc. in between. In…
>Actually good quality stuff is more affordable than ever. People just don't want to pay for quality and things that last. You might want to read *A Market for Lemons".
For me, the painful banging my head against the wall to figure something out is usually the most rewarding sort of learning experience.

Libraries like Guidance guarantee that the output of an LLM will be syntactically correct (i.e. it will be valid JSON or whatever output format you are wanting). They do not, and fundamentally cannot guarantee that the…
At my employer (megacorp with tens of thousands of employees) daily use is mandated. Our annual bonuses and pay raises for our performance reviews were explicitly tied to this.
How much of that use is driven by corporate mandates to use AI anywhere and everywhere (even when it's a terrible fit)?

Then why did it take Anthropic over a year just to fix the flickering issue in one of their main products when they have internal access to the latest and greatest models?
I think we're going to see a big scramble to pick up the pieces in a few years when a bunch of vibe-slopped houses of cards come crashing down. I imagine it will be like the demand for COBOL developers but on a much…

The entire Linux kernel is about 40 million LoC, and only something like 16 million LoC after you remove drivers. I have a hard time imagining whatever OpenAI was talking about there having anywhere close to 6% as much…

I'm not expecting them to know it ahead of time, I'm expecting them to understand it when it is explained to them.
Seeing as my Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Mexican, French Canadian, and Brazilian coworkers don't seem to have these issues with me I don't think the issue is with my explanations.
