Rough. I hope to get automated CR bots in my org working soon. But with 2025 capabilities it should definitely only be brief feedback that people can choose to ignore.

Maybe the decent comments hadn't had time to bubble upwards yet. HN is a relatively higher quality online forum but... I still only expect half the commenters to have read the full post. I'm curious to hear what rationale you part

Indeed. OSS maintainers may need some kind of response like the one I've written here that can be strategically dropped on the worst "bad AI" contributions. I certainly wrote this for myself to make my job easier, anyway.

Because for most people hearing the term is the only education they get about the concept.

He can be mostly right but also terrible for his own cause at the same time. Anyone that doesn't see that must not know even the tiniest fraction of the stories, or like him also has a cognitive disability.

"These things should literally never be able to happen" If we consider "humans using a bank website" and apply the same standard, then we'd never have online banking at all. People have brain farts. You should ask y

There's thousands of enterprise SaaS products. I seriously doubt the OP is referencing any grand audit of them or could even list 20. Yet one they dislike is "easily" the worst. They write like a child.

The entire point of AGI maybe. But until we get that, if it's useful then people can do it.

> that's just called documentation. Ironically you sound very optimistic about AI capabilities here. This implies that an AI is just as capable as a human because all they need to contribute is what a human needs to contribute. Alte

Absent owners of malls don't want to think or work with the community to earn money. They just want big anchor store contracts like it's the 90s.

Depends on whether it's a fast or slow takeoff and the control problem. Both are open questions. Personally I think we're in the midst of a slow take-off because AI researchers and IT support for them are all using AI. That gives

A real person showing up is a huge cost and risk. No threat actor will continue an attack on just a hospital like that. The economics make no sense and any money is already extracted. Ransomware shops are very happy to just shotgun the inte

Very nice. Years ago I applied to a weather centre for their data and supercomputer team. I color-printed screenshots of a game I made: a 3D Mars sim with real Mars terrain data where you built and collected data from Mars weather stations.

It absolutely doesn't have to be good to be real. Fear of building something crappy is a great way of never building anything real though.

There's no way that you have a computer with internet access but cannot afford a few dollars a month on a micro instance backend. My database for a big project is on the same machine as my web server which works fine. If you don't

Sometimes I find myself rewriting the same comments online over and over. That's when I write a blog post to just link to that. Let me know what HN folks think!

I wasn't writing about consumers though. I was writing about "hackers" who might read this article and try this hack.

"Because that's what it means to be a hacker." Sure. But to me "hacking" this cat and mouse game is not very compelling. I feel like I've seen a thousand articles exactly like this over the years. This won&#x27
