The point is that saying the LLM failed to do what the overwhelming majority of devs can't do isn't exactly damning. It's like Stephen King saying an AI generated novel isn't as good as his. Fine, but most of have much l

I consume no TikTok, no Facebook, no cable news, none of any of that. If Israel doesn't want people to form "extreme opinions" about them then maybe they should stop oppressing and murdering poeple with a compete disregard fo

A lot of people think the world would be better off without the violent Israeli regime and their influence.

Unless you're talking about the US military you're wrong here. MAGA is not willing to sacrifice anything. It's a bully mindset and bullies take, they don't give.

Holy shit what rock are you living under? Israel is villifying itself just fine.

If they had nukes maybe the US and Israel wouldn't feel so comfortable "obliterating" them and triggering all the consequences that follow.

Look again. If you care about quality you absolutely can guide a machine to produce that for you without writing a single line of code yourself. And I expect the amount of guidance needed will continue to drop.

I always wanted this for Python but now that machines write code instead of humans I feel like languages like Python will not be needed as much anymore. They're made for humans, not machines. If a machine is going to do the dirty wor

Right but Google has loads of market leading services they use to deliver those ads, and Facebook has a crappy dated website and dumb ideas that lose them money which they brand the company on. I know I'm simplifying, but not by much i

You're the only one in this thread that mentioned 2x and 10x productivity boosts and studies. Obviously everyone has their own experiences with LLMs. But I think it's an interesting position to take to tell random people that thei

I think that's just the cherry on top. The main reason is Israel saw an opportunity to take advantage of the idiot US leadership. Of course it helps that US is just as bloodthirsty as Israel and gets a boner from killing easy targets.

Right and I'm sure if a family at a US army base commissary or movie theater were to get blown up by Iran tonight you'd accuse the US of a war crime and let Iran off the hook, right?
