"assumptions"? Maybe consider how "I'm so sick of coding" implies you're doing coding? I'm so sick of driving, oh no somebody 'assumed' I'm a driver instead of a mechanic. Believe it or not, most people 'assume' something when you use sentences that imply it. CrAZy, riGhT?
wrote last edited by [email protected]...why would a professional whatever make a remark for technology doing their job for them and making their career redundant?
Farmer, coder, driver, whatever. "I can't wait for the bots to do this" is not a common muttering. Except maybe if in the c-suite...

Now, that is completely understandable. This is also a reason I don’t publish most of my things. They work, they work well, but… Some of it is kind of nasty. However, other developers are going to understand. Just mention this in the read me file. Or better yet, use this as an opportunity to refactor code. An LLM could be very helpful For that process.
If you are not familiar with the process of using git or GitHub, i’m sure many of us, including myself, would be more than happy to help you.
Thanks a lot! I'll try to figure it out myself first, and might get back to you if the need arises!

Oh, that I can, and thank you for your message, really. With that said, here is the differences: cars did work as a transport, and AI as it is marketed (magic replacer of all) does not, and even in the narrow use case of programming - no, it does not. It can produce heaps of lines of code, it cannot do the work of building a reliable software that does what is required of it. It has also failed to replace artists. So no, I am not afraid
Compare AI generated content from now and 2 years ago and extrapolate the curve
It's not linear, but your monkey brain will insist it is
That's why you're not afraid.
Honestly taking programmer jobs isn't even close to the worst thing AI is going to do to us

Ah, just kill half the humans. That will make water consumption go way down. Follow me for more resource-saving tips
Well, not half. Just a tiny amount, some would say that just 1% is enough.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Yes, it's not linear. The progress of GenAI in the past 2 years is logarithmic at best, if you compare it with the boom that was 2019-2023 (from GPT2 to GPT4 in text, DALL-E 1 to 3 in images). The big companies trained their networks on all of the internet and ran out of training data, if you compare GPT4 to GPT5 it's pretty obvious. Unless there's a significant algorithmic breakthrough (which is looking less and less likely), at least text-based AI is not going to have another order-of-magniture improvement for a long time. Sure, it can already replace like 10% of devs who are doing boring JS stuff, but replacing at least half of the dev workforce is a pipe dream of the C-suite for now.

Some of us have applicable skills that can’t be replaced by a computer or a robot.
Some of us will be replaced the old fashioned way. By a underpaid worker in a third word country that will ask for one tenth of the money for the same job.

I never said that. Reread my comment. I want people to say "hey we should use less resources" and a good way to do that is not endlessly replicate ego spawn like a mindless virus.
I didn't read it that way. In this case - yes, we most definitely should

My monkey brain keeps hearing of non-linear progress, and things keep staying here:
Besides that, since you insist on being fearful: why AI of all things and not a handful of rich assholes who actually make our lives hard every damn day?
-
I once heard an arrogant fuck go on super confidently for like 2 hours about how AI will never master natural speaking voices
So yeah, be blase about the biggest existential threat to your careers that has ever existed.
The real tragic part is that all of you laughing are going to be unemployable within a decade
Living up to the username I see

Everyone complains about water consumption, energy use, and pollution of the ai yet fail to compare the use to its human counterparts
You can turn off AI/datacenters. If you try to turn off humans on a large scale, it's called genocide.
-
Listen to yourself, Thinking I'd start the reduction with unemployed people as if there isn't another class of people who do less for society. Try to think outside of the boomer education you received and those indoctrination Sundays
Ok, so you are advocating for mass murder, is that right?

No it's called being ugly.

No I just want less people and less a.i. lol
Less capitalism and bullshit projects like water intensive crops in deserts.

I don't think you understand how dangerous a system is that can correlate every factor of every humans post activity and use it to create manipulative profiles for ever human who has ever logged in to anything

Up until last week I worked for a stupidly big consumer data company and our in-house AI tools were not LLMs, they used an LLM as its secondary interface and let me tell you none of you are ready for this.
The problem with current LLMs is confabulation and it is not solvable. It's inherent in what a LLM is. the returns I was generating were not from publicly available LLMs or LLM services, but from expert systems trained only on the pertinent datasets. These do not confabulate as they are not word guessing algorithms.
Think of it like wolfram alpha for human behavior
People look at LLMs as the public face of AI but they aren't even close to the most important.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Ooh, scary once again. First, let me give you some credit and take the description for face value:
How is this omnipotent system going to be created? By humans who err? By current LLMs which dream up names of libraries and functions? And most importantly, how is it going to become capable of manipulating "anyone to do anything" when even "I" do not always know what it is going to take for me to do some arbitrary X, and this is true for almost all humans, save sages/buddhas etc (can't deny they are possible, so count them as existing)?Your proposed threat looks like a conspiracy theory. Some of them have proven to be actually true, and this is no reason to believe anything

Less people is less data less data is less centers. You're just treating the symptoms. Restricted breeding solves it.

I wouldn't call it murder.
