@carnage4life I'm wondering if this is why Twitter was always bad at coming with useful features themselves. Their overall concept of reality was off.

@carnage4life Must be great to be totally insulated from the tiniest consequences of all of your decisions. Utterly incapable of reflection and learning. Completely surrounded by people who give you endless respect, praise, and never criticism. Absolutely not a recipe for uncaring idealogues, convinced they're right in all respects.

@carnage4life
Bye 👋

@carnage4life
The companies could save a lot of money by exorcising Musk

@carnage4life heck, just treating them like people

@carnage4life you guys are getting snacks?

@carnage4life so workers prefer quality time with his family / children / friends instead of free juice at the office... No shit Sherlock.

@carnage4life This is what I’ve been trying to explain to many friends. I think it's just the job market downturn and the anxiety fueling sentiments like these.

@carnage4life If Programmers are replaced by AI I will simply rebrand as a Debugger and quadruple my rate.

@carnage4life There's a difference between a coder and a developer. I agree with you that developers aren't threatened, but I do worry about people who are just coders. Folks that don't bring business insights and other non-technical skills to bear.

@carnage4life
Save two hours writing boilerplate, spend ten hours debugging incredibly subtle bugs in production, sounds like a win!

Yea, the fact that LLMs just inherently produce "plausible" results rather than "correct" results means producing bugs that are just that much harder to spot.

@carnage4life I would not be surprised if these conclusions are true, but this "study" is very flimsy. They compare total metrics across all measured codebases between 2023 and the prior years, assume that all differences are due to Copilot use, and then extrapolate conclusions. I am definitely an AI skeptic, but this is a marketing piece, not a research paper.

@carnage4life LLMs for coding: the new cargo cult.

@carnage4life Longer than I think anyone, including the people doing this, would like

@carnage4life this is not that different from exposing DB interfaces on the Internet. Folks need to start thinking about security frameworks like NVIDIA’s NeMo Guardrails from the get go.

@carnage4life If they can’t, they’ll create a new one.

@carnage4life
> Crypto allowed them to create a new financial system with no regulations.

as it should be.

@carnage4life I can only begin to imagine how many wars and deaths have been funded through shitcoin markets. Iran, Russia, …

@carnage4life

You've been an outspoken critic of Crypto as well.

Are you still against #cryptocurrency as an investment?

@carnage4life dumber than NFTs? Ouch. Also true but still ouch.

@carnage4life@mas.to we do have real action to manage the risk of biological weapons and pandemics. Maybe we should have more, but we have a lot of public health infrastructure for that.

@carnage4life Impossible! Nothing is dumber than NFTs!

@carnage4life
I mean, sure it is, we just failed to understand what merit's being assessed: It's #bullshit. Neumann is clearly extremely good at bullshit.

@carnage4life It all depends on what said meritocracy is based on. Neumann is clearly gifted at fraud and lying

@carnage4life I (being totally unqualified to comment on such things) think he’s right for this iteration.

REAL AGI though? Idk.

@carnage4life I think it’s a both/and situation. It’s true that big tech wants regulatory capture AND it’s true that AI poses existential threats.

@carnage4life it only makes sense if you are willing to realize that all existing human systems are designed to generate maximum misery.

@carnage4life If by strange you mean....that just means the vast majority of americans who let that happen deep down WANT their own kids dead. Then sure.

Also to add. America is majority white.

@carnage4life This is part of Steve Bannon's "flood the zone with shit" strategy... Not necessarily to make people believe the lie (though that's a bonus), but to make people distrust the truth and give up caring.

@carnage4life another reason to dispel the efficacy of "AI detectors".

@carnage4life ten 90% accurate fake detectors and a motivated reasoner...

edit: also it's a black box. The machine learning could be investigated, probably,(tho difficult..) but not if it's running on someone-elses server..

@carnage4life nobody could’ve seen this coming /s

@carnage4life sad to see that the idea of Americans have given up the fight for a sane public healthcare policy so the assumption is their grandkids will suffer from this.

@carnage4life Healthy insurance is immoral and unethical imho.

@carnage4life Too real.

@carnage4life where can I buy this? 🤩

@carnage4life is this what the singularity looks like?

@carnage4life they automated the Citogenesis XKCD comic

@carnage4life
Ars Technica > Quora - apparently also in SEO juice.

@carnage4life
Welcome #blackhat #blackhat2023

@carnage4life I think you already know the answer.

@carnage4life I wish the future The-Line-Inhabitants a lot of fun in their "paradise" 😤
