I suppose they don't because they want to be respected, and the LLM companies that got big think they are past needing to have respect for the people who's jobs and ways of living they want to automate. We saw that in how the lead

They have written like that when the models were much less capable, my hypothesis is this is an example of model collapse happening ever since LLM training leaned in heavily into RL and a result of training on model output the developers ar

Probably to a degree, I have found Gemini to be the least dis-likable of the models from the big 3 on that front. I wonder if the poor English comprehension of Deepseek-v4-pro and K3 is because of alleged distillation of Claude (speaking of

I'm not sure I could really live down using something branded with Grok but it makes sense Elon Musk at least shipped user facing products in the past, not surprised his company delivered something more usable.

You could probably keep the Claude slop hidden and have a fresh model generate a paraphrased response for anything human visible and keep the Claude responses as thinking.

> I'll also say that I think Claude sounds the way that it does because it, like many other LLMs, are RLHF trained largely by lowly paid gig-workers, many of them ESL speakers. if their trainers were, for example, dedicated and high

The spec your principal engineer one-shoted through Claude and didn't even proof read afterwards before dumping it on the team?

It could be, but without evidence that remains a just so story, no particular reason to think it's required or useful or even harmless to the model performance or anything other than an artifact of some early silicon valley writing sty

Would more blame this on the LLM companies, they think they are on the verge of automating all work, I don't think they care about how you feel about the writing style of the Deus Ex Machina, it's not going to get fixed because to

you're both under and over estimating this technology I think, we are further away from SWE becoming a niche job than you think, but also LLMs really are less impacted by programming language than you think, this is a very pre-2010s ap

I think the optimistic thing one can hope for is this will result in coders developing somewhat of a class consciousness but it's probably too late, if that was ever going to happen people would have refused to develop AI tools in the

tokens will stop being given away for free at some point, writing software was always a pretty simple white collar job, so it makes sense it's one of the earlier ones to be automated, but really the axis of evil has it's shot now

welcome to late capital, please enjoy the ride while people are trying to tell you that LLMs are the only future (you have no future) while SOTA models can barely do shit on their own consistently outside of carefully designed benchmarks, a
