Read it again—it's funny and reeking with sarcasm.

  I don't find it funny and it is a long winded and confusing way of saying that their code suggestions use other code and documentation and that people should try it.

    If you're not familiar with Steve Yegge, this is his classic rant style. It might not be your cup of tea, but it's definitely more substantial than "AI generated blogspam", and I think you should point out where exactly you think the hallucinations are for everyone if you think it is.

      >Nvidia buying all their employees solid gold full-size Wall Street bull statues as a little holiday thank-you gift. I can't find any source for this claim. >Although Elon’s proprietary LLM is still held up in making sure it helpfully tells advertisers to go have marital relations with themselves I can't find where Grok is setting up marriages between advertisers. >Zuck chose not to execute the employee who leaked it. LLAMA was leaked by someone who applied for the weights and not an employee. >investors have still managed to raise roughly 2.3 quadrillion dollars to dump into AI startups. This number is hallucinated. >This resulted in approximately 23,342,971 news articles about how you should hide in your basement because they’d created Skynet Another hallucinated number. >and it was discovered that the board had accidentally fired a deepfake of him Deepfakes are not related to this event. Hallucination due to being related to AI. >Real Sam pointed back and said, famously, “No, YOU are the one who is fired!” This quote is hallucinated. I could keep going. Every few lines you will encounter something that is made up or wrong.

          There was a surreal scandal recently driven by the "revelation" that the events described in a standup comic's routine were all made up. This is of course also true of every other standup comedy routine in history, but it was only a scandal for Hasan Minhaj. There appears to be a breed of modern people who aren't capable of understanding the concept of humor. Unfortunately for Minhaj, those people were drawn to his act as an expression of piety, which isn't what it was.

        If LLMs could hallucinate Zuck executing someone they would be infinitely funnier.

        >>Nvidia buying all their employees solid gold full-size Wall Street bull statues as a little holiday thank-you gift. This is classic Steve Yegge hyperbole. He's been ranting like this for decades[0]. His (accidentally public) rant comparing Google and Amazon business practices is a classic[1]. In it he says, "Jeff Bezos is an infamous micro-manager. He micro-manages every single pixel of Amazon’s retail site." Surely no one would take that literally.

    maybe it's a matter of taste, but I haven't read all year a better written piece it couldn't be further from LLM style - not that LLMs don't write good text, but it's bland and has that unmistakable AI feel, almost always {intro, 3 paragraphs, conclusion} and making sure to name opposing views or warnings
