Exactly. We don't have enough energy apparently and need more warming.

LLMs are genuinely useful but the cult surrounding it makes it super sketchy. Tech needs no anti-humanist and low empathy cults. It's a disgrace to the technology.

The only paper document I have in my mom's cabinet is my birth certificate haha

Use a human maybe. Only people can really verify clankers. Can't trust anything LLM since it will confidently lie too. It can't take responsibility for verification so it can't verify.

Animals sure but they evolve with us for hundreds of millions of years so they get a break. They did their part.

It's funny because if people get replaced and don't have money they won't pay for API tokens either so the retail AI business collapses too, there won't be enough demand because people rather buy food.

by hoppp 3mo ago
It is a little bit suspicious that the big replacement didn't happen, yet. If it was so valuable then AI companies would directly create valuable things, not just sell API tokens. A proof like this is a good effort at trying to provid

Code that solves a problem related to coding absolutely have value. Compilers, programming languages, IDEs, toolings all solve problems related to coding and are valuable.

Has it been audited and verified?

How do you make sure you are not violating terms and conditions if they forbid injecting third party javascript into the website explicitly? Does your LLM ingest terms and conditions too? In some cases in the past, finding and using auth to

Anthropic/OpenAI should have full control over who accesses their service since it's basically an API they provide. Chinese models are great, nobody says otherwise but many of the publicly available ones are distilled and not trai

AI providers like openAI or Anthropic are already on the hook for OFAC compliance, so if any terrorist group is proven to access their APIs they can face huge fines. The same game played out in the crypto space. Local models like local wall

The regulation is not for Westen Africa, it's for USA. American companies could maybe keep OFAC regulations for AI? If the fintech sector can do it, AI can too. I'm pretty sure most of the western african terrorists are blocked fr

If the impact of AI is comparable to the atomic bomb then the least they could do is try to filter out terrorists. I think this is a very convincing argument to regulate the space more.

AI services will need KYC soon?

Their brains are the same, what differs is the environment. Humanity's superpower is the ability to copy and mirror each other very effectively. It does not require advanced awareness or intelligence to do it. Most people copy others

Seems like a pretty good article to sit down and type out the code and spend an afternoon learning.

It's about the competitive edge. If a public model can do it, everyone has access to it so nobody has advantage. If you want LLMs to be your advantage you can train your own, that's completely valid. Let's say you want to hav

That's not always the case imho. Think about advances in running inference, any innovation will happen in the details. Higher layer can stack gpu's but the implementation can still be improved. Often small technical changes like

by hoppp 3mo ago
If everyone is using LLMs then nobody has advantage In that case, humans with superior skills who can write code become the advantage. That is important for companies that compete with each other.

One reason to write by hand is to have intellectual property, since it was ruled that AI generated code is in the public domain by default, so licensing is hard. Another thing is competitive edge, if you use claude and your competitors use

Bun has an interesting blog post about how it was ported. It did cost a lot, much more than hiring people would cost outside USA.

by hoppp 3mo ago
Extensions like pgvector, TimescaleDB would probably need to be ported tho, not sure how much but there are footguns.

by hoppp 3mo ago
I would say it's an average coder when it comes to writing functions because it keeps using regex. It might pass a benchmark but doesn't pass the smell test.

If attention is all we need then what is better Hours of human attention or a few seconds of AI attention? I am not just talking about writing the code but the brainstorming that goes into it.

There is often no spec, just the old code, copied with the old bugs and with new ones sprinkled on top.

by hoppp 3mo ago
I have an issue with the precision of generated code. LLMs sometimes confidently leave things out or they will overbuild. I use them all the time but mistakes happen. It's not exactly a scalpel, more like a sledge hammer.

What about extensions that are not sketchy? Lots of good ones out there.
