Do you want me to spend time to come with a quality response to a lazy statement? It’s like fighting with windmills. I’m fine with having my say the way I did.
I just want people making statements like the author to be more specific how exactly the llms are being used. Otherwise they contribute to this belief that llms are a magical tool that can do anything.
I am aware of simple routine tasks that LLMs can do. This doesn’t change anything about what I said.
> Even if LLMs make mistakes, the ability of LLMs to deliver useful code and hints improved to the point most skeptics started to use LLMs anyway
Here we go again. Statements with the single source in the head of the speaker. And it’s also not true. The llms still produce bad/irrelevant code at such rate that you can spend more time prompting than doing things yourself.
This whole thing worldwide will lead to division in the society and to people having secret social media accounts. Only the most lazy and stupid ones will be handing over their private data to any gov security forces.
That's what I'm thinking every time I hear or have to use the term "AI". It is not intelligent, but everyone is so used to call it so. LLM is much better.
It would be great if all these companies contributed to a some kind of a unified modular platform like Project ARA. I see a lot of new devices, but they all do their own stuff. They produce hardware for their software, the end result is the same as with big brands. Most of these devices are usable while they are supported by these companies. Some of them allow installing custom Android roms, but not many.
Looks like the market just gets more fragmented without any improvements towards better sustainability/reusability. The only thing that really caught my attention recently was Pilet, a handheld Raspberry Pi. That's a really cool thing, that gives mobility while maintaining functionality.
By victim blaming I meant some comments here. I can relate to the author, and the narrative that it's my fault for trying to be myself and keep to my ways triggers me.
Wishing these guys all the best. It's not just about following the market. It's about the ability to just be yourself. When everyone around you is telling you that you just have to start doing something and it's not even about the moral side of that thing. You simply just don't want to do it. Yeah, yeah, it's a cruel world. But this doesn't mean that we all need to victim blame everyone who doesn't feel comfortable in this trendy stream.
I hope things with the AI will settle soon and there will be applications that actually make sense and some sort of new balance will be established. Right now it's a nightmare. Everyone wants everything with the AI.
I use flexbox for grid purposes, simply because the syntax is straightforward and easy to read. Yeah, it’s one dimension, but if you nest it, it becomes two with no issues.
For me this feels irrelevant. These tools are marketed for developers for their day-to-day jobs that involve building products. Devs don't look up information on people or build some complex mathematical things daily. They build things that consist of different parts, which in turn can consist of different contexts and can be a combination of other things as well. It can be a straightforward approach or it can be a legacy codebase that also need to incorporate new features with new stacks. The real test is in the real world scenarios. But every time it's about a narrowly scoped thing, the tests, the marketing. And they try to build an image that the combination of these scoped tasks can somehow bring you the ability to build at large scale. They don't say it, but they implicitly mean it with the way they present all this. Computers can compute, they can detect patterns and do analytics part, they can build assumptions based on the data they have. But they need the data, they need parameters, they need not only an operator, they need the source for the material they base their computations and output on. And somehow all the marketing completely ignores this fact. And this is damaging.
