@ariadne publically posting about LLMs recently comes back to bite you on the ass

@dysfun shrug, i maintain one has to know the enemy

@dysfun and, frankly, so far, i am unimpressed with the enemy

@ariadne i am incredibly unimpressed with its ability to generate code.

what it does better on is rubber ducking. but only when you know the material inside out because it will bullshit you and send you down wild goose chases.

on the other hand even there it will still try to pull shit like 'insert in a hashmap need not insert' (like you had one fucking job...)

@ariadne (i have designed a novel concurrent hashmap with it this week. it's been an interesting experience....)

@pj @dysfun shrug, i think people who think like that are intellectually disinteresting

@ariadne hang on, when you say "MY" do you mean yours or mine??

@dysfun yes, my attempts to use the technology has led to similar frustration

@morst mine (as in ariadne's), obviously.

@ariadne apparently yesterday's OAI sol will keep going better than anything else yet.

unfortunately it seems the results aren't going to keep up with the dedication.

@dysfun yeah, i've been testing that

@ariadne smh, how is that possible when you just said you were unimpressed?

@dysfun the testing ain't going so great

@ariadne oh I didn’t realize it was obvious

@dysfun look at this pure, unadulterated slop https://github.com/kaniini/bunix/blob/main/user/net/main.c

@ariadne i'm about 1k lines in and bored out of my skull. no way i could review this

@dysfun that's why u get another instance to review it, obvs

@ariadne well you'd have to, clearly.

@dysfun agentic!!!!!! woooooooo!!!!!!!!

@ariadne keep an eye on the token count and notice how it goes up much quicker when you let it off the leash.

@dysfun yeah i aint buying any tokens over what is included in the subscription, fuck that

@ariadne they can't read and thought you are asking about *their* aesthetic

@ariadne I'm happy 'feral' is finally taking off / coming ahead.

@dysfun @ariadne the middle management and consulting class are wringing their hands at the prospect of monitoring token usage and making everyone's life further hell. (and whatever buzzwords they can shove into this)

@dysfun well my filter came back to bite me in the ass

@xyhhx LOL, i was expecting it to be about AI (which like fair enough, i realise i'm a bore whenever i talk about it), but i wasn't expecting that.
