  • Because you start with one to set the example then spin out from there.

    It’s very rare and very hard to just blanket regulate something up front before you have examples of failure modes into the problems.

    It kind of ties into the whole concept of innocent until proven guilty.

    Nothing is allowed to ever create a problem. Then you stifle innovation change and improvement way too hard.

    The problem is the lag time from the new thing to the regulation being put into place and all the damage that can be done in that lag time.

    It’s why the saying the law lags behind new technologies is a thing.

    It’s one of the few things we have to just accept if we want to have progression. We are totally allowed to though b**** moan wine and cry that it takes way too long for the reaction to happen cuz it does.

    It’s an excusable for how long that lag time is. Some lag time is unavoidable, but it does not need to be as bad as it is.


















  • Any series of events where something makes an error and then though a process of trial and error or reasoning from facts to arrive at a correct destination. Then accurately state the error, the reason why it was made then the steps to correct it. Is “owning up”.

    Your giving moral weight and ethics to a phrase used in a way that was not intended to carry any in context.

    At best your being stubborn, at worse your trolling.

    We can all agree the dumb slop machines aren’t people and anthropomorphicizing them is dumb. But take the statement in the way he clearly intended and he’s not wrong.

    Models are at the point they will noticed they are wrong and self correct 9 times out of 10. If given the resources, tools, knowledge to know it’s a error and see it.

    The bigger problem is bad user input. Ask a stupid question get a stupid result. Even if the best case is a mediocre result. Thats still good enough .



  • It sounds like you enjoy coding more then managing.

    Not enjoying something is going to lead to no attention span related to that thing after all.

    Which is a pet theory why I think so many software guys and long time Linux users say this.

    Fundamentally it’s just not fun. It’s not interesting. Even if the AI can produce perfectly fine and working code. It’s not great cose, but it’s also not buggy in a way that gives you challenges to solves problems to understand.

    Ai is just mundane. It removes the enjoyment form computers in exchange for mediocrity and functionality. It works “well enough”. And that is more of a sin then anything else when it comes to long term engagement.

    Personally I can stare at a prompt for 8 hours straight and debug and improve the harness, the system, the thing it makes, manage it, fiddle with its memory set up, make entire new workflows or systems for it.

    The actual product it makes tho? Boring and I tend to forget about them a week later.

    The process is boring as fuck to most people AND what it makes is boring.

    So either you need to find the process fun, or make something with it you actually personally use day to day.

    I had the same problem with 3d printers. They are cool as fuck. But the stuff I made was… Meh cause it wasn’t useful I just made it cause I could.
