> Why is there not any kind of narrative out there describing how fake and soulless is code written by any AI agent?
because soulless code does not matter.
For other fields the result is more subjective, I don't like movies with desaturated color palette, a lot of people like them, maybe LLMs can produce new genre of movies, which people who appreciate classic films or music find it soulless, and find it sad that the peasants kind of like these films and the whole thing a risk for their careers or whole craft and the human effort in making their art work.
In code its objective, either the result work or not work, I guess you can stretch "it works" to have a different meaning that can include maintainability where it starts to get more subjective, but at the end of the day you will also can get to a point where the whole thing can collapse under its weight.
I think this is the main difference in reaction to LLMs between different fields, fields that are subjective and more to sensitive to receiver taste you can notice a rage(I think range is an overstatement) against it, while fields where the result is objective the reaction from people is simply saying it does or doesn't work.
> I am guessing that no-one ever gets convicted for this murder.
He was arrested by Israeli police for questioning, but was later released on house arrest while an investigation continued.
About a dozen Israeli soldiers raided the mourning tent, pushing those attending out while keeping a thumb on the pin of a stun grenade. Soldiers declared the area a closed military zone and said only residents of the village could be present. They arrested two activists and threw stun grenades at journalists who were too slow to leave.
One theory that I saw earlier was that the industry is bloated, big tech companies executives knew that but they continued to hire anyway to make sure that the people they don't hire don't start competitors when there was funding, there is less funding now so that risk is no longer there so companies can reduce their size to their actual needs, but maybe that does not apply to intel since they seem to be really in a bad situation now.
This project sounds really interesting as an alternative to cloudflare and for decentralizating the internet, but for some low traffic home server what would I gain with using it instead of directly exposing a single port on my home server with nginx, I have static IP from my ISP, right now it is exposed as the server IP, what would I gain if I use a cheap vps as a proxy first?
I might have not been clear in my original reply, I don't have this problem when using an LLM myself, I sometimes notice this when I review code by new joiners that was written with the help of an LLM, the code quality is usually ok unless I want to be pedantic, but sometimes the agent helper make new comers dig themselves deeper in the wrong approach while if they asked a human coworker they would probably have noticed that the solution is going the wrong way from the start, which touches on what the original article is about, I don't know if that is incompetence acceleration, but if used wrong or maybe not in a clear directed way, it can produce something that works but has monstrous unneeded complexity.
A big problem I keep facing when reviewing junior engineers code is not the code quality itself but the direction the solution went into, I'm not sure if LLM models are capable of replying to you with a question of why you want to do it that way(yes like the famous stackoverflow answers).
> If someone interned as a doctor's assistant at a medical center and then later started their own medical center. Can their previous employer sue them for that? It's nonsense.
As I said the legality of this is not so simple to answer, yes you can intern as a doctor at one place and then open a similar one, and if someone tries file a suit about this then I think it will be very hard to find a sympathetic judge to look into it, but once you bring IP into this it becomes a lot more complicated, calculus is also about ideas, yet it didn't stop Leibniz or Newton from making accusations of plagiarizing.
>If Replit can sue this guy, then Cloud9 can sue Replit, WebStorm can sue Cloud9, Microsoft can sue WebStorm, etc, etc... Who even invented the first IDE?
the difference here is that the guy worked/interned at replit, this what moves it for me from the founder being an asshole to a grey area where he sees someone had access to all resources at the company and now wants to use that knowledge(or at least having access to it) to create an alternative and he decides to go with a heavy handed approach before it becomes a big headache, was he nice in how he went about it? no
Someone interned at a company, saw and worked on the IP and architecture, and after leaving created something that can be viewed as a copy(the emails say that even some of the UI design and languages description were copied) of the core business of the place they worked at, maybe the response was a bit too heavy handed, but you don't exactly expect roses after doing something like that.
This seems somewhat unethical, and whether it is legal or not that is up to lawyers and specialized people of law to decide, and the founder wanted those people to get involved to decide that, again nothing crazy to expect after you create a copy of a project you were paid (or at least trained) to work on and learn all about it.
