Is that how you built the app you claim Apple rejected as spam?

of course

You built it from scratch? According to your Twitter, you're not writing any code. You're not even reviewing it.

There's been a noticeable drop in quality. It's often a blend of AI culture war posts and arbitrary Github links.

Merging related models has been a very common practice for years. See the Stable Diffusion community.

Your recollection is incorrect, and besides that, Covid had a serious impact on the world that's still being felt today. We didn't simply "get through it just fine."

> is there a truth requirement anywhere?

Yes, and it's called defamation when you don't follow it.


Population caps by fiat have always been terrible moves. Example: every country that's ever had them.

What counties have had population caps exactly, like the one proposed? I know China and Singapore tried to limit birth rates, otherwise some countries have various quotas/intake control for residencies, but those countries don't seem especially "failed", like Andorra or Singapore, not do they have "population caps".

If a human was hallucinating and polluting a codebase with errors, they would be fired and possibly treated for dementia. Even worse, an LLM is trained to produce plausible-looking results, so it's harder to detect the mistakes.

> 3 years max. Maybe 5 if you are lucky.The models will continue to improve. The exponential gains in compute efficiency that have been ongoing for 70+ years will continue and that will result in even smarter models. There are dramatic hardware changes in the pipeline.

I remember hearing that 10 years ago about self-driving.


60 years ago about flying cars, 40 years ago about cold fusion, the list is long.

We need a lot more basic research into LLMs and also a lot cheaper hardware.

The current batch of LLMs will turn a lot of fields upside down, but not to the tune of $3tn or whatever crazy amounts are being invested right now.


I mean basically you and I are effectively living in parallel universes. Waymo has been running for years, and there are other services including in China and Tesla which is not 100% there but actually very effective.

And the thing he complained about is fixable with a web search, and AI does programming and office work today. So, it's already here. It's just a question of degrees.


Waymo heavily relies on real humans to get their robots unstuck. They also rely on extremely detailed mapping data, which is why they're only in a few cities.

Tesla has been a couple years away from FSD for, what, like ten years now?

If you scrape off the glitter, you'll find a lot more duct tape and wire than you think.


"Just 2 more weeks guys, and AI will be able to do everything!"

> most code changes are AI generated

That's a huge claim.
