I feel like this post is a few years too late; with AI assistance you can probably fork things productively now more than ever

I think a lot of people are rooting for AI to destroy corrupt institutions

Broad brush comment but studies like this kind of seem useless for a couple reasons here One position I don't see defended as much anymore is an elitist position, i.e. even if social media & games (sm&g) are harmful to a majori

If you miss the friction, then I think you want to seek new friction in trying to build bigger things with your expanded capabilities

kind of a different answer but it really comes down to "politics and religion": namely with politics, the lack of freedom which leads to more poverty and less ability to take risks to create things (so people insulate to prevent r

So in practice a lot of the kids are ignoring the ban, or just downloading other apps which more-or-less function as social media The issue is probably more cultural, of encouraging young people and adults alike to live a certain "life

(comment repost) I was thinking as an alternative to this, a question of what education or orientation might be given to teens so that they might avoid some of the problems of social media that have led to people wanting to ban social media

I've had this kind of idea when I was thinking about becoming a teacher that maybe in the future it will be more common to have a split career of, in the 40 hrs work week tradition, manual labor / trade for ~20 hrs/week and a

More like LLMs are 400-year-long project we're confident "just works"?

You could use AI to tutor you on how to code in a specific instance you need?

by erelong 9mo ago
Kind of a meta thought but I guess we could just ask a LLM to guide us through creating some of these things ourselves, right? (Tools, agents, etc.)

Interesting question but my problem is... it sometimes feels like there are almost no users on this site to begin with, real or not! This post only has around 100 comments, and even a top page post around 1500. Reddit's front page post

Interesting if true but I would presume it to be negligible in comparison to magnitudes of gains over "manual coding" still, right? So nothing to lose sleep over at the moment...

> People often treat relaxation and wakefulness as two opposites: relaxation as a drowsy and dull, wakefullnes as sharp and jittery. But the two can co-exist. I've discovered recently the two indeed are opposites and meditation is c

"All AI Videos are Harmful" Obviously an incorrect statement? I will grant that most AI-generated videos I've experienced seem like novelties... although they've generated plenty of "valuable" humor. Certainly

As the kids would say, sounds like a "skill issue", but more kindly just that this user hasn't developed a use for the tools for his specific use cases, which is fine; however an implication that the tools aren't useful

Kind of funny sounding, but you could ask AI some tips on how to do this... I think naturally some output from AI will be incorrect and this forces people to question the output constantly, so I'm not sure if there is much actual curre

I don't get posts like this, I guess I'm wondering: A. Do people simply want "better" LLMs and AI? To some extent that's a fantasy, the bad comes with the good. To other extents it may be possible to improve things,

Sounds like you mostly want: -to encourage people to develop more basic programming knowledge and skills (with AI or other manual methods) so they don't produce as much "slop" -to catch "slop" being created and eith
