"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Bummer. I was hoping this was a case where someone created their own open-source model, trained on their own work and not Internet scraping or destroying books or whatever, and did the thing on their own local infrastructure. There's nothing unethical about that.
Seems pretty clear from his statements that he's just slop 'coding' with frontier models.
Apparently we can all look forward to things that always worked to suddenly be buggy as hell, just as it is now with Windows.
Even if you train your own model, its still worse than a human doing human work every single time and runs huge risks to a project like this.
You're not wrong. My assumption would be that if someone takes those added steps to be ethical, it's not unlikely that they take the time to test properly too.
For the amount of manual checking to make it okay you're better off writing the code.
I've already noticed this having installed Linux for the first time last year. Could be unrelated to the kernel but I've had more system hangs the last couple months, up from basically zero prior to that.
Could be RAM going bad too, but yeah it sucks to just not know.
