@theatredesvarietes @skavish to clarify, my critique is on the point @skavish is trying to make. We are stuck living in the real world. In the real world, the incentives produced by LLMs encourage bad outcomes. It’s possible to work in spite of those incentives at the individual level, but the broader reality is the nature of the system, and that reality is a firehose of slop.

@skavish I find takes like this increasingly hilarious. There’s the magical mythical engineers “doing it right” while the vast majority of users - by my own observation - are pumping out absolute trash. The incentive for quality just does not exist. Some people can build quality systems in spite of that but it is not the norm.
