It’s not, they are correct. There are so many telltale signs of AI code it’s not even funny. The most obvious being the absolutely garbage comments that people invariably leave in. And the god awful naming of things.

But it’s more than that. If you’re in this industry long enough, you get pretty good at reconstructing a real author’s thought process when they wrote the code. Part of understanding code is understanding why it was written the way that it was, which means understanding how the author thought. Sure, there was plenty of garbage code and stupid thinking, but it was still thought and usually had its own kind of internal consistency. AI code has no thought process, no reason. It is pure mimicry, an amalgamation of millions of authors all at once. It has no internal consistency. It produces code no human ever would, because it doesn’t make any fucking sense. It’s like reading an alien language, where the constructs it produces are so aberrant to how any human would ever think that it could be nothing but an LLM.

I definitely can’t tell you everything about a piece of code by reading it, but I sure as hell can smell an LLM in it, because it fucking stinks.

I work remote, so no.

Hmm, every company monitors their web traffic. That’s standard operating procedure.

Slop commenting. The litany of AI slop websites that have popped up, polluting search results. The absolute flood of AI slop pull requests being submitted to open source projects, to the point at which many open source maintainers are buckling under the weight of garbage being thrown their way. Bots everywhere. The list goes on and on and on.

The internet is already a dessicated husk of what it once was.

I’m saying that AI companies have repeatedly shown a flagrant disregard for licenses, contracts, and the law, and have engaged in massive theft. Why should we expect that any contract would actually be honored? The whole thing is a huge fucking grift.

I was not talking about your specific lawsuit, or TLS.

Companies trust other companies all the time, and it’s foundational to most all SLA/SLOs. Any time I’ve voiced concerns around how AI companies are using the data we are giving them (like giving them access to our codebase), it’s brushed off as “we have an agreement with them”. It’s just a load of hogwash. They can and will abuse all data they have access to, just as they have done thus far.

In this particular case, we are talking about a data center, and it is not at all reasonable to assume that the data that flows to said data center is in any way protected, especially one run by Musk.

Still means jack shit. Companies will lie through their teeth and violate any and all they can get away with.

They are not to be trusted.

I do use quite a bit, but I also do a lot of different things. Compiling code, running docker containers, local web servers, an android emulator, slack, browser tabs for Jira/confluence/figma/etc., all adds up pretty quick.

8GB is definitely nowhere near enough, at least for what I need to do.

What the actual fuck, Guardian.

Did the headline change? The current headline is Torvalds: “100% of Their Code is Written by Compilers” Too

The title of this post makes for a dumb headline, at any rate. Linus, in response to claims in the industry that projects are now “99% written by AI”, drew an analogy to compilers by saying that all machine code for projects are written by compilers, yet no one says their project was 100% written by a compiler. It’s just talking about stupid hype, which is valid.

That being said, it’s still quite unfortunate that Linus has fallen into the trap of LLMs.

This is what happens when you don’t take a stand against this shit. He brought it on himself.

Yes. They are con artists with a proven track record of lying and stealing. We shouldn’t take anything they say seriously, especially when the reporting reads much more like marketing rather than an incident report.

How is this a response to a comment about AGI?

LLMs are not currently, nor ever will be, anything remotely resembling AGI. AGI is still entirely within the realm of science fiction, like teleportation or time travel.

It doesn’t need nearly as many. AI inference is orders of magnitude more expensive than a single search query (ignoring the fact that Google does it’s own inference with search queries now). And that doesn’t even include training, which is stupidly expensive to do.

That’s not lying. There’s nothing linguistic about numerical computation.

Parents aren’t doing this. It’s purely a move by the elite to tighten the grip of the surveillance state, using the guise of “protecting the children” to absolve themselves of any scrutiny.

Admittedly I’m not sure if it works for Japanese, but English has online tools you can use to print out a sheet to write out every character and scan to turn into a font file. Would be surprising if it didn’t exist for Japanese.

So ultimately you probably just need someone with neat handwriting.

2012 called, they want their “insult” back. What a joke.
