I don't get it, how is every one of the most touted people in the AI space among the least credible people in the industry.

Like literally every time its a person whose name I recognize from something else they've done, that something else is something I hate.

Reminds me something F.D. Signifier said on a music podcast.

Progressives are losing the cultural war in a lot of ways, but they'll always need us because we're the ones pushing the boundaries on art, and it turns out, no matter how ghoulish people want to act, everyone has genuine love of fucking awesome art. The true loss condition is being captured by the tools of the master.

Listen, I'm just saying that this never would've happened with hg.

If you're referring to genetic algorithms, those work by giving the computer some type of target to gun for that's easy to measure and then letting the computer go loose with randomly changing bits from the original object. I guess in your mind, that'd be randomly evolving the codebase and then submitting the best version.

There's a lot of problems with the idea of genetic codebase that I'm sure you can figure out on your own, but I'll give you one for free: "better code" is a very hard thing for computers to measure.

This was a year before the stuff with the Zizians happened too.

Hey that's unfair, us North Americans are as normal about bikes as we're normal about cars.

At first I was skeptical of the guy who told me, but they seemed rich and therefore trustworthy.

I don't want to see grummz anywhere near AI ERP discourse.

I'm just glad all my friends are such smart rational independent thinkers that we've all independently come to the same conclusion that the status quo is perfect!

The machine I love can't be dumb, I love the machine and I can't love what is dumb.

https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/50 and of course we already have chatgptfriends on the case of stopping the mean programmer from doing something the Machine doesn't like. This person doesn't even seem to understand what anubis does, but they certainly seem confident chatgpt can tell him.

Posting cringe, even intentionally, has little artistry.
