Is anyone else concerned about the huge, centralized dependency AI introduces into your workflow?
This is one reason I've been resistant to using it. I don't want my work to go to the companies providing the models. I don't trust them. Not only with my data in the first place, but also that they'll keep providing the service over the long term without totally enshittifying the experience.
I'll be so much more excited by this when local models catch up to (or even exceed) frontier-level quality. How close are we to this?
(In my case, I don't even care if it costs a boatload in hardware capital to deploy.)
- direwolf20 9mo agoAbout as much as they're worried about AWS.
- rkagerer 9mo agoIs GLM 4.7 still leading in terms of local models?
- AstroBen 9mo agoI actually think this research points out why that isn't an issue: used properly, AI can help you learn and act as support. I'd also be fine if my LSP disappeared overnight. Kind of annoying but meh I'll be fine You should be concerned if you're outsourcing your work to it, though. There's also no benefit to doing that outside of laziness (the research shows no statistically significant productivity improvement)
