@jaredwhite Fuck yeeah, count me in. I still code by hand A LOT (sadly, at work is not possible anymore, but in my free time? Yes)

@johncarlosbaez It's a very elegant way to say “weakness and incompetence are the source of all evil”.

@brib @glyph @davidgerard Uh, oh, excusing people because they're weak-minded or surrender to “convenience” is not the way to go, I believe.

@glyph I understand, it's just that I despise this technology so much that I become overly aggressive and reactive to everyone that holds a position that isn't "I hate it" or, at very least, "I hate it under its current form".

@glyph My bad, I misunderstood that paragraph’s idea by reading diagonally and fast.

But I disagree, the only viable use of LLMs is multiline (5-10 max) autocomplete after extensive training with a specific repo tbh.

They’re just glorified autocomplete, any other use out of this is pure brain rot that isn’t far from Markov chains garbage.

@glyph read the quoted paragraph, I will quote it again, with emphasis: “back to them in the future (…) doing them the right way”.

She suggests there’s a “right way” of doing LLMs.

This kind of person doesn’t learn anything, they still think it’s “a tool”. They still jerk off to the false and despicable idea of compressing days of work in seconds regarding creative endeavors.

@glyph “I poisoned my own mind. Maybe I can go back to them in future, starting from scratch and doing them the right way, but for now, they’re shelved.”

The door is still open, not a great ending for the post. I don’t get why people are so tempted by laziness and cognitive decay.
