This almost reads like tptacek doesn’t understand why lucidity’s piece a year ago was so effective and tried to write it from the opposite angle by punching down instead of punching up.

I’d have thought that a guy who writes on the internet like it’s a competition sport could recognize the obvious problems of this, but maybe I’m just a vibe coding Youtuber.

Being the worst and the biggest studios aren’t unrelated concepts, they’re the biggest because they’re the worst.

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.

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!
