Yes, but a little bit of lobbying and regulatory capture goes a long way. At first, you provide the services for 20% the price and price out the competition. Also, human doctors also make mistakes, no? Do this long…
I would prefer my doctor to have access to LLMs, just as I would prefer them to have access to google. What I meant is different though. I fully expect to no longer have access to human doctors in a decade or two.…
I am afraid that ship has already sailed, and we will have to live with the consequences. At this point; I see no other scenario than having LLM doctors, LLM judges, etc. No matter the quality. We will get replaced. And…
I think the bigger issue is that "we" won't be doing any deciding. A handful of oligarchs will. As the technology becomes better than us, I am afraid we will learn that we are (at least seen as) technology as well. And…
Using SUVs are definitely worse for safety as well, and it does not require a huge overhaul of the transportation infrastructure, a few new technologies to be invented, replacing ~all the existing cars, etc. etc. But…
You are dismissing this as "unhelpful negativity", but are not addressing in any way the obvious (and rather malicious, I would say) PR play that parent comment points out. This is exactly the message, and I for one…

Yeah but the money I receive is almost completely decoupled from the value I create. In fact, this can only reduce the value of my time since now my expertise is perceived to be commodified.
But if they do the work for me, then my time is less valuable. If my time is less valuable, I won't pay more to save more of my time.
> AIslop is of higher quality than devslop on average. Is it? If by higher quality, you mean commenting properly, sticking to naming conventions etc. I can agree. But to me, AIslop looks like it lacks "intentionality"…
Passing judgement on the schadenfreude aside, I don't think its a community moderator's responsibility to make sure the violator's attempts are cost-efficient.
I think the point is not difficulty but rather recklessness. I don't think other large players lack the ability or the deep pockets to do the same, but they might be lacking on the recklessness department for whatever…
Seems correct. Weird thing is, every single piece of software that I use feels like it got shittier in the last couple of years. But I am not using more software. I mean their source codes might have gotten larger, but…

There are other, more focused (also arguably better at explaining) videos on explaining how it works. Here is one: https://youtu.be/dxmxIsoV_Xo It took a while and several explanations for it to completely click for me.…
I tend to view this as purely an optimization problem. Basically all aspects of traditional values, systems in place and the whole lifestyle, established mostly after the agricultural revolution; seems to be…

Unless you don't own the data centers yourself, you only get what they allow you you to. And those gatekeepers, lawyers and licencing agreements; while certainly not perfect, did let people monetize their intellectual…
I think the problem will be with enforcement. To be honest I don't see any way to stop this kind of thing from happening. I predict the slow decline of open source projects, sadly.
I got the same impression as the parent post. Even if its not AI-generated, the text reads like a politician's speech at a lot of places. Talks a lot, says little. The idea itself was very cool, so I endured it. But it…
I mean sure it is fun to pick one company and hate it, but this is not the point being argued here. But the point here is that a few companies are outbidding everyone else, hoarding shittons of compute and putting it…
ah, so what you are saying is this: now you can buy your own specialized hardware, which is realistically produced and sold by a single company on earth, compete with ~3 of the largest multinational corporations to do…
