Do you have to print it out and scan it first?

Only if you don’t have a fax.

It will definitely not report back to Musk on your proprietary code...

Because Musk wouldn't understand shit, it'll report back to some Indian guy instead.

I find that without being able to see the rest of my IDE it makes no sense to just paste a single class worth of code at a time in there, it has no context for the rest of the application

You've heard of monorepos, but have you tried monofile development?

He probably thinks that the entire application is only one source file

He also thinks that the number of lines of code produced is a relevant measure of productivity, so him not understanding this isn't super surprising.

I do work for an AI centric company and we've used almost every major model in some way, shape, or form.

Grok was so bad on all fronts that we ceased using it completely.

So I don't believe this for one second. I don't even find ChatGPT to be useful for code. I'd probably put Claude first and versions of Gemini second, with no current third.

Wait, so if everyone at xAI does that, does that mean that Grok's own source code was the result of Grok's output?

And then they once again feed that source into Grok?

Dude is destroying his own product. Again.

Hey Grok, take this one file out of the context of my 250,000 line project and give me that delicious AI slop!

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 26 points 4 days ago

Just really fuck up this shit. I want it unrecognizable!

Wait so are they using grok to code grok? No wonder it keeps getting shittier

how does the AI know what the rest of the project is like? Or what the purpouse of the file is?

Using Grok to develop Grok... This sounds like Model Collapse with extra steps.
