      I would say it goes down. After all the slop users are not going to suddenly discover critical thinking.

      Net negative, I’d say, especially in the long run.

      By training LLMs, you’re neglecting to train the entry level workers who grow to be seniors. If we keep going down this rabbit hole, there will be no one who knows ‘the old ways’ and understand why we do things a certain way.

      Additionally, the energy consumption and land occupation is massive and far outweighs the benefits, making things more scarce, especially since more people will lose their jobs.

      For the tiny % of people who actually put it to good use, there’s 100x more abusing or mishandling it.

        It’s going to take a while, but hopefully that percentage improves over time. PCs in the 1990s were “Solitaire Stations” for an awful lot of people who didn’t know how to make them do anything else.

      depends what you mean by productivity. cost based efficiencty has risen but at the expense of future capacity. We are kinda taking long term into account sometimes but very often even that is thrown off in the short term. Like organic and regenerative farming have been increasing as well as this thing called precision but im not sure that leaves the soil as good or better than it started it just sorta tech farming. Its a small minority that does any of that and if they seel the land the next owner may do the common farm technique that erodes the land so there is no way to know how long term it will be. granted everything im talking about does not even necessarily use ai.

    Surely the world’s leading advocate for vibe coding wouldn’t have issues with code stability. This is only their second colossal issue this week!

      It would have issues with code stability, and don’t call me Shirley.

    Some AI company recently developed some new software so powerful they had to warn and prepare all other major tech companies with special training so their software wouldn’t be vulnerable to attacks from the new program. Maybe Anthropic didn’t attend this training??

    Clearly SaaS isn’t working out, so just open source all the frontier models and stop building data centers so we can all buy our own GPUs.

    As long as stackoverflow doesn’t go down too. I’ll have to start banging my head against the keyboard if they both go down…

        No idea, I haven’t in a long time. But there’s a huge amount of stackoverflow answers the current generation if AI was trained on.

            Could be, I haven’t asked or answered a question there in a long time. Most of my questions got down voted anyway, so it was hard to get answers to stuff.

            They were always notorious for expecting every question to be applicable to everyone else, so if it was even sort of specific, the question got dowvoted.

      yeah this has been normal for them since they’ve become extremely popular after chatgpt got with the US military

      They’ve been up and down near daily for like the last 2 weeks, unfortunately they just don’t seem to be able to get enough compute to handle how popular they are

        I’ve been hitting a few errors processing requests, usually just repeating the request a few seconds later will get a normal response.
