@clarfonthey I genuinely hope you have a nice day and go do something you enjoy for a while today and forget about jackasses on the Internet for a bit.
Jyn suggested emailing her with thoughts on the issue, as an alternative route to having a say. As you note: probably more effective than on a public issue if you have a concrete proposal anyway!
@Athena oh, rest assured that my day was already ruined before you showed up, I'm just trying to help people understand how actually one-sided this discussion is on the inside despite it being completely stonewalled on the outside
I would apologise but it feels extremely clear this conversation hasn't upset you at all, so, just continue enjoying your day I guess

@clarfonthey thank you, I will
you do the same!! -
cited as reason to allow LLM contributions experimentally:
Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy, we should justify policy on the basis of how something is impacting our ability as a project to deliver a really great programming language.
if the orphan grinder lets us make a better programming language then FIRE THOSE BABIES UP
@Athena oh my god it's the canned libertarian "what if nothing mattered but the thign i want" take

gettin’ myself banned from the rust github https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-forge/pull/1040#issuecomment-4460618392
@Athena wow youre good at this. arguing with centrofascists on their own turf in good faith, i mean. hard not to snap immediately when faced with such bullshit

@Athena am hella glad I've been moving towards zig lately!!! They have a strict no-llm policy there!
@gimmechocolate @Athena
Jep, i was never good at Rust, this takes the cake thoZig ftw

@Athena That reasoning from the Rust devs... I'm sorry but how is it different from eugenics? Proponents of eugenics also had the betterment of the species as a stated goal. Both of them are putting aside ethical concerns in the name of apparent progress.
Also, any statement that starts out with "Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy" should have everything following discarded because it doesn't say anything important. You started out with stating you don't give a shit about ethics so quite frankly anything else you're saying is null and void -

Why am I suddenly thinking of Joseph Mengeles contributions to health care? -

@hsza thank you! I credit spending my entire teenage years disassociating into internet arguments (and programming, but that’s less relevant here)

@Athena if there's one thing i'm pretty sure they said at the business ethics course i didn't take in university, it's that externalities don't exist
-
@Athena fwiw I agree with you, just, damage control atm
a large portion of the team is anti-LLM but a few key folks in charge are stonewalling discussion

in continuing fairness, the additional paragraphs do not help one iota

@Athena LLM people saw the scene in Snowerpiercer where the kid is part of the engine and were like "yeah, let's do that".

@leeloo mengele made contributions to health care?
@Athena
I believe I have previously read so, but I don't recall a source.He did a lot of hunan experimenting, and even if was done entirely for his own sadistic pleasures, he must have learned something along the way.
-
@Athena oh yes, it has, but you underestimate how many people on the team are pissed about that and want it to change but need to be diplomatic about it so they don't lose their jobs or positions
like, the tech industry is extremely unfavorable to people who dissent to LLMs and just showing up and complaining that people aren't doing enough is putting these people in impossible positions where they agree with you but are forced to say nothing and let the fascists dunk on you because they can't be so overt about it
I've been especially frustrated lately because this has been happening to me too, but like, at least I know what the situation is and am working on changing it. again, I'm just pointing out that even though you were extremely tame in the discussion relative to what you're saying here, all you did is invite more folks to throw shit and get the discussion locked so now not even I can comment on it
@clarfonthey @Athena “you underestimate how many people on the team are pissed about that and want it to change but need to be diplomatic about it so they don't lose their jobs or positions”
historically this is a great way to not change anything

@leeloo I am extremely hesitant to jump to the conclusion that some useful learning must have come out of it. One can do all kinds of experiments without producing usable scientific knowledge. It’s possible to just be evil and fucked up and call it something with an ounce of virtue like “experiments” without any actual virtue
And I believe this is what I recall from what I read of the man
