Is this old I seem to recall other articles about these kind of shenanigans.

pizza and asian near me.

regardless of if the feedback is from the ai or a blog example its up to the programmer to evaluate the relative value of what they are looking at. No one codes from nothing for things they have not done before and even then they are likely to start with code they wrote before and start editing. Also ai assitance for coding is not limited to coding. I found ai commenting to be useful as I am more likely to correct an ai’s comment as I go than comment as I code. Its very easy to be like. I will get the commenting in later but when you see something you don’t like, at least for me, then I don’t like to leave it there.

Yeah my response was directly for your statement that there are no real and tangible benefits of llms. I think how useful llms may or may not be is immaterial when it comes to the repos and they will be used in coding. Wikipedia went a good direction and worked out a deal for them to contribute back and linus was sensible in his response to usage for coding.

I think you are looking at llms in to large a context. Your issues you have with it are the same as search and if used as a further abstraction of search it is going to carry forward weaknesses. LLM’s trained more narrowly for specific purposes are going to do better if their narrow training data is of high quality rather than throwing everything at it.

There are certainly benefits to llms. Just the more casual interaction is one. This to me very much mirrors graphics as compared to terminal. many many things done on computers do not require graphics and can be done at the terminal but usage by ordinary folks increased with the advent of graphics systems and guis. graphics require more power but are a more user friendly interface. Similarly llms take more power than search queries but have a more user friendly interface. In addition it has generative capability allowing folks without significant talent to do some things they could not before. There are benefits but right now its a matter of if the benefits outweigh the costs. Seriously if this was graphics vs terminal the graphics basically double power usage when doing nothing in particular that need it. You start throwing a bunch of monitors up and it will bring it up significantly and actually using graphics like gaming and video go way more and it keeps increasing as we increase standar resolutions and what is considered normal performance. We would use way less power globally if folks only used computers at terminals and went back to listening to the radio.

no way you could get to the store with only 8 cylinders. what are we? animals!

the egg basket thing is not much of an issue for me. I think having to remake an account is something that is just going to be reality with the federation. Backing up settings is the biggest thing to me to make that a bit less painful.

one of my things with the federation is I would like a login to be able to be used with different things. log into peertube with lemmy credentials and such.

Maybe. I certainly have not used them all. Honestly it would sorta mean using one specific package manager and such so im not sure if what they are describing the way I read it is really feasable. I use a really easy out of box distro now so I only make a few decisions at install and mostly just hit enter and accept defaults for them.

Sorry. What I meant is it sounds like its suggesting an install interface where you basically choose what you want like you see with freebsd (or did at least back when I was using it which admitadely was some time ago but yes the other bsds). Also I thought the various bsds had different kernels so where not exactly distros of each other.

by freebsd I meant FreeBSD.

ok so basically suggesting it be like freebsd. which honestly is kinda cool but all the same not exactly a great solution for folks that want an easy one and done. I suppose their could be an option at setup for certain defaults that would basically be a list of distros and would automatically do the distros default setup.

but stinks is I have already been keeping old machines going. having replacement ram be expensive is going to suck.

yeah which went to support as a model. I actually doubt ai will be able to give enterprise level support to software. Much of the fixes come from those who license the software.

This is true. Free as in freedom not always as in beer. The source code must be made available to the cutomer along with compiled code but they can still sell it rather than provide it free of charge.

I 100% expect to see an ai health initiative come out of this administration requireing it for medicare and medicaid.

See that is the thing. “If the company has no productive use of the capital”. Borrowing is essentially money creation. Utilizing it just to artificially increase stock value is just an economics game at that point precisely because its not doing something productive. Companies are supposed to be productive in the real world but now all companies spend more of their money playing economic games over making prducts or providing services. This is the classic complaint and the reason for the late stage capitalism thing. When money is the goal everything increasingly is setup to make money but not actually do the thing the money is supposed to incentivize.

Its sorta funny because often times the top of the line processors with bad cores were recycled into lower end processors. Seems perfect for this situation with a ramp up in production for industry and then sell the lower level things to consumers.

That thing about the more you know about economics. We have to “invest” in our own retirements and its all just leves of scam. Without regulation investment is a dart throw. I mean companies can borrow money to buy their own stock. common!
