Before I started flying, that was my imagination as well. Small Aircraft engines are actually some of the simplest designs you will ever find in a four or six cylinder engine. They are essentially pegged at 1950s to 1970s tech level. The ma

The underlying problems here run much deeper in that the root cause of the issues has more to do with the shenanigans Boeing and any other aircraft manufacturers end up having to do in order to avoid having to certify a whole new aircraft a

App developers have to deal with this every day. And it's call a free market in that context, I don't see the difference between that and art in this context. People straight up clone every good app that shows up on the app market

Seems like there's a bug in that system, it was discovered on accident, and now there is a bot that exploits this flaw. The fix will most likely have something to do with requiring that citations use primary sources, not just any artic

Probably add one caveat to the first case, if the bot reliably produces libels the same person when various users ask the same or similar questions, then there is damage and most likely whoever is running the bot is liable.

Well, at least you are honest about not really caring about anything other than profit. I'd love to see what makes you think think almost everything that matters to most people for most of their lives is irrelevant to the question of h

Belligerence is an intention. Bullshitting is a technique. The bot is incapable of intention so the entity here is still the human who prompted it. What the bullshit it produces is used for depends on their intentions.

I was not suggesting the bot was telling the user to go make a PR to an open source framework but rather that they could create a library that contains those functions if that was the logical thing to do. Which is why I asked if that actual

Saw that, and yea, that's totally a fall-back cop-out type answer. I was pretty much just questioning everyone dismissing the whole category of answers like the R script one. To me there does seem to be some nuance to here that's

Agreed. That does seem to be an example of a language model failing to understand the context in which the question was asked. The user was implicitly expecting code that would function when executed immediately and as written with no addit

Actually it's the other way around. Those pushing the concept of "AI-Free" have yet to nail down what amounts and types of automation may be used in the production of a thing before it can no longer be labeled "AI-Free&q

This take strikes me as a little off. Programming languages are language. Unlike natural languages they are also based on context-free grammar. So an understanding of programming languages should actually be easier for even a general langua

No one is suggesting we should embrace the worst. Only that ignoring it at every chance instead of ever properly dealing with it isn't the most helpful thing if we actually want to follow that desire to go beyond.

So long as developers want to be paid by the hour rather than paid for a specific result, I would say this is fine too. The problem everyone is waffling on here isn't the competitiveness of the wage, it's the gap between the value

I tend to agree with this notion. Instead of dealing with the fact that humans do and produce tons of awful shit, we just do our best to ignore it and pretend human nature is better than it is. This is delusion on a grand scale and it'

That's not proportional, by design even. The whole game here is to do a small amount of work and multiply the gains by an infinite number of results from people using the bot. That's always the game with any kind of technology. So
