Here's Our First Gemini Deep Think LLM-Assisted Hardware Design
We've been using LLMs for software and firmware for years... now we're trying hardware. Threw a MAX44009 datasheet at Gemini Deep Think, asked for an EagleCAD library file, and about 10 minutes later it popped out working XML. Loaded it in Eagle, checked the pins and dimensions, rolled with it.
@adafruit
Oh, this ain't it. Neeeext.

@adafruit So what you're saying is you had a software tool assist you in stealing from designs made by other people, which you're now selling for a profit. Got it.

@adafruit Onto my blacklist you go ...

@adafruit so, the big deal is not the thing it does, but the fact that it's slop generated? That's what you're proud of?

@adafruit Maybe LLMs can generate you some customers, too.

@orangutanlibrarian @malachai @adafruit not really, managing the library and footprints is about 1/10 of thr work load of electrical design. Hardly ever you need to make your own footprint since most components use standard footprints. Realistically most vendors already offer kicad library files if not the footprint files. I would wager it takes me more work checking if the shitbox machine generated correct files then I am making my own files.
@tretron @orangutanlibrarian @malachai @adafruit and let's not forget that this technology currently burned through 840 billion $ of aggregated funding. With a microscopic fraction of that budget we could probably automate the issue away with a suitable and reliable tool. For that kind of money every problem you can think of has a better solution than an LLM.

@adafruit how tremendously disappointing. That’s a hard red line for me, I’m afraid. I hope you can change course, but I won’t knowingly support LLM’s in any way, shape or form.

@adafruit rip adafruit
Understanding of the customer base was apparently not part of the deal

@adafruit Note to self: do not buy Adafruit anymore

@orangutanlibrarian @adafruit because genAI companies are anti-social parasites who only thrive by stealing everyone's creations without asking for permission or giving even a thought to compensation. From music to art, from books to shitposts. Everything stolen and the result sold for money.
They destroy lives of people from artists to engineers.
They eat energy and capital at an insane rate, and the crash will be a desaster.
Use genAI and accept all of the above as inevitable, or fight it.@mavu @orangutanlibrarian @adafruit That's our capitalist economy. None of this is new or specific to genAI companies. The stuff the exact same system does in african countries is even worse. It's important to recognize this to better navigate how to make the world better. Exploitation, disregard of ownership and rights, erosion of freedoms, propping up corrupt governments, leveraging the power advantage the system provides for ill; all that you listed are subset to this, and are a property of a deeper older misanthropic engine that in an ideal world would not exist.

@neptune22222 @adafruit Have a peek at Oxide Computer, if you haven't already. For example,

Thank you for the information. I will no longer use something from your stuff. -
