Ironically, this is the inverse of the very thing you complained about people doing to you.
- qarl2 2mo agoExcept I'm providing evidence.
- xracy 2mo agoI'm seeing more examples of you saying you're providing evidence than of you actually providing evidence. So far I've heard a single anecdote about what you did. That's a pretty far cry from the "evidence" you claim to have dropped on multiple comments.
- qarl2 2mo agoLOL. Providing a counter example is far from just an anecdote.
- vhantz 2mo agoAn anecdote is an anecdote is an anecdote
- qarl2 2mo agoA proof isn't an anecdotal story. The claim was this is not possible. I show it happening. That's a proof. You're confused because the example is my own project. But I'm not merely describing it - I am giving you full access to it to confirm or reject my argument. Not anecdotal. Saying it three times does not make it true.
- chaps 2mo agoWhat things have you tried that didn't go well? At this point, that's more interesting. If you want to have a whack at a hard problem, have a try at the cryptographic puzzle in Noita if you want to see the silly failure modes of these systems. Lots of people have tried to solve it with AI and nothing's budged. If you can solve it, great.
- qarl2 2mo agoWhy are you changing the subject? What does your new subject have to do with the fact that the previous arguments were all pretty much baloney? Pointing to a problem that has not been solved is completely unrelated to the miraculous things that have been solved. And I thought you'd decided (three times now) that I'm not worth talking to?
- chaps 2mo agoBecause I find what you have to say interesting. Sorry about that, I'll try to consider you less interesting.
- qarl2 2mo agoIf you'd like to change the subject I'd be happy to do so. You're right - there are still many problems that have not been solved by AI. AI has not found a cheap and effective way to turn lead into gold, as an example. But I sorta think that's a silly metric. There are always going to be unsolved problems for any system. The interesting metric is how many problems have been solved - and how surprising are they. Like I said above - a decompiler that produces semantic understanding of the machine code it's looking at (this address is score; this address is how many lives are left; this address is...) would have been considered literally impossible before LLMs. Today, I was able to implement such a system in under two weeks. That's an impressive result. If you disagree, I'd love to discuss it with you.

- xracy 2mo agoWhat counter example did you provide? You said you had tried a few projects. You can just claim that without any evidence. I have no reason to believe you're not lying. You could say "I used AI to cure cancer." This isn't a counter example, because there's no evidence for it.
- salawat 2mo agoRepo or GTFO, I believe the commenter is saying.
