    @pgcd

    That is a great way to describe the motivation someone would have to get AI to rewrite or write a post for them.

    @kepeken unfortunately I think you're right. Having an LLM (re-) write something for me is something I find as appealing as having somebody drink my beer for me, though, so my opinions on the motivation of somebody who does that, are necessarily flawed.

      @pgcd some people are looking for self-expression (truth as you understand it, questions, unique views, ideas that someone else won't understand unless they are open to you), others for a successful post in terms of attention (AI, dog-piling, takes they know are false but will get approval from the crowd, false accusations, etc.)

        @jpteti @beyondmachines1 Don't trust Pangram so easily. I've seen it get stuff dead wrong (with "high confidence", no less).

        But yes, this looks slop-ish.

          @toriver @fightscore @beyondmachines1 sounds like you never experienced an LLM finding the source of a production bug based on log files, code and given context, in less than 10min where you would have needed at least half a day

          In my experience at work, that happens sometimes! But it's outnumbered easily 3:1 by cases where it goes down rabbit holes based on fundamentally wrong starting assumptions.

          If the LLM bug-triage bot at work says one more time "oh yeah this kernel panic issue is clearly due to a problem in this testing shell script" I STG I will scream.

                        @beyondmachines1 i find it so fuckin weird that all the anti-ai posting is usually (at the very least) put through the ai copyeditor with the punchiness dialled up to 11.

                              @beyondmachines1 The worst part of it all is the access to your work and patents, basically you risk finding someone making the exact same things, because you've already fed in, tweaked, and fixed every mistake by training an AI, and you even paid to do it. At least with an employee you could drag him to court if he spilled your confidential info and patents, on top of putting him on bread and water if he screwed up the job, and whipping him when he wasn't working. 😂

                                @beyondmachines1 @_elena AI is just a tool! For my company I use codex one-time to write python automation scripts on the dev database, then scripts can run by themselves in prod and ai doesn’t access data. A small local agent with Hermes Agent tracks errors and problems. The cost is minimum (20usd/month), maintenance is straightforward, local ai runs from a base Mac mini (lol). We save lots of time that can be reemployed elsewhere.

                                  @pafurijaz @beyondmachines1 The way AI works, if you have a trade secret it has processed and somebody asks that AI a question related to your secret, it's going to barf up your secret - and the person questioning won't even know they're in violation.

                                  Even worse, if the AI firm goes belly-up, all their scraped data will be part of the assets up for bid.

                                  So, two different ways of near-guaranteed exposure.
