I was talking more generally about LLMs here

I’ve found they’re great as a learning tool where decent docs are available. Or as an interactive docs you can ask follow up questions to.

We mostly use c# and it’s amazing at digging into the MS docs to pull out useful things from the bcl or common patterns.

Our new juniors got up to speed so fast by asking it to explain stuff in the existing codebases. Which in turn takes pressure off more senior staff.

I got productive in vuejs in a large codebase in a couple days that way.

Using to generate actual code is insanely shit haha It is very similar to just copy pasting code and hacking it in without understanding it.

It’s not a thing in other countries

At the end of the day if they can afford it and don’t want to change you’ve got to ask yourself if it really matters?

I know it’s silly to pay over the odds for something but it’s up to them really.

There’s loads of options.

Plenty of science that could potentially save us if invested properly.

Lab grown meat. Carbon capture. Using said carbon capture for building materials. Nuclear fusion. Outer atmosphere energy generation. Etc.

There’s also cutting back on our consumerism.

Once it gets bad enough that it affects the super rich the world’s governments will miraculously and quickly act as one.

I would say being more inclusive is bringing value.

There’s a massive issue with women being under-represented in STEM and little things like this only further cement that.

It’s casual sexism. I’m not suggesting they are intentionally hating on women.

Assuming it’s a man because it’s programming is fundamentally sexist.

What downsides would they be?

I didn’t label him a sexist. But that is a sexist act. Assuming a man because programming fundamentally is sexist.

I mean that is sexist tbf

It’s a lack of a feature really. Case insensitivity takes way more work.

I find it really fucking irritating on Linux tbh. It knew what file I meant.

“I can easily do it on my phone” is also good.

If a Zoox robot taxi encounters a construction zone it has not seen before, for instance, a technician in the command center will receive an alert

Seems perfectly sensible

I think it’s as much, if not more, the private company’s fault.

The cladding and insulation used seemed to be very flammable. Apparently the insulation had its safety tests forged or something.

I would argue 911 is for emergencies that 100% need to be dealt with immediately.

This feels like calling it in and letting them decide priority is better. It could be anything.

At no point does OP imply it can actually think and as far as I can see they only use the term once and use it correctly.

If you are talking about the use of “lie” that’s just a simplification of explaining it creates false information.

From the context there is nothing that implies OP thinks it has a real mind.

You’re essentially arguing semantics even though it’s perfectly clear what they mean.

Hallucinating is the term for when ai generate incorrect information.

Because English is stupid

I don’t think they’re pushing trump. More saying Gaza is fucked regardless.

There’s a difference between “we don’t know” and “they are definitely not there”

No I don’t. It’s all contactless here.
