    Lol, yeah. I run one in the wild trained on Sun Tzu, but LLMs did take a lot of the fun out. It does still feel like an accomplishment when the Art of War bot does something coherent, at least.

      I also made one trained on the New Testament, but Digital Jesus is no fun at all any more so I never launched it.

        Anyway, according to Gemini, I am the executive director for the Frontenac Arch Biosphere. So that's going awesome.

        Claude appears on first blush to suck less than Google, it has my work history more or less correct.

        The externalities remain horrible, of course, and I continue looking for a better job.

          @silvermoon82 the little I've used them - claude is kind of ok - I've mostly used to get me unstuck from "I can't make myself write this code"! - I've ALSO rewritten most of it.
          It's definitely "junior developer that is incapable of learning" level

              I'm tempted.

              Someone today proposed that we "just" need to write some "good coding skills". Feeding slop into slop is much more practical, and if I burn all my tokens and ask for more I think I'll get a raise.

              Ever read Fred Pohl's story "Midas Plague"?

              TL;DR: in a culture where you earn the right to consume less, a young professional programs his robots to consume for him.

              When he gets caught, he's turned into a hero.

                Yeah, it looked better before leadership got into the slopfondling kool-aid.

                  @silvermoon82 Why such a diktat? Are they expecting you to train it or something? Or who is made to look better to whom by this number of hours rising?

                    @silvermoon82 I don't know what I'd even say to that. Probably activate my malicious compliance brain so bad (this is not career advice)

                        I suspect that company leadership invested heavily, probably early on, and now they think they have an interest in it being used.

                        Of course, what they made was a donation and they'll never see a return, but they're so deep in silicon valley ceo-bro culture they'd never listen to bad news like that.

                            I am torn between using it the minimum to keep my job, and finding a way to pipe one LLM into the other one so I burn my whole token budget and look super productive.
