Sorry. I don't want immune system hacks. I don't want to throw a monkey wrench to some system that was created by random tweaks over millions of years and cost millions and millions of lost lives to perfect.

Any non-trivial project done at scale for any realistic duration won't work with this procedure. Just consider this for a minute. If re-writes were so trivial, we would be re-writing software all of the time, even before LLMs. It is th

That is quite unreliable. I would bet that your spec will be out of sync with the program behavior in no time. The only thing that will work is to have non-llm generated tests. But writing those require thinking, which is what we are trying

Well it could miss relevant things to include in the spec.

>why would Earth be that incredibly unique? I think the answer to the question is easy if we consider quantum mechanics. It says every possible random event manifests in some universe. This means that an event or combination of events, n

At least there is some hope for that for the side who believes they can think.

Temperature measurements and "trends" in the distant past which the current "crisis" is built on, is based on methods that seem to be very unreliable and dependent on some unjustifiable assumptions.

Why go to the ocean, because that happens everywhere, non-stop. If your immune system stops working, then you are a dead man.

Actually I don't think there is life outside of Earth. I think we are truly alone in this universe.

Origin of life on earth is not very interesting to me. Origin of life in the universe is where it is at...

At least I am falling to the best kind of propaganda. While the other side, who does not apparently even believe they're "thinking on their own", is falling to a much poorer one...

Yea, it is as if some people can still think on their own...

How much wind power can we extract before we disrupt the global wind circulation and thus the climate regulation by winds? Is no one worried about this?

I think we would, at some point realize that the roles of PM and QA are best done by an LLM, while coding is left to humans. So an 180 from the current coding-automation frenzy..

I don't think volume of code changed was the metric the other commenter was asking for.
