*tech news feed. Replacing HN to be more specific.

I've replaced most of my news feed with lobsters and I think it's alright. You've publicly attached yourself to two politically controversial projects, maybe that's why your experience has been negative?

Keep dreaming!

yes but what if 99% of code doesn't have to be read by humans? what does that say to you?

I've seen this once before on that sub. An exciting project claiming to solve an exciting problem with a slick website and everything except the whole codebase and the website are prompted and what's worse, a chatbot was using the account in the comments to defend it. Bots let loose?

Nope, Mastodon is pretty homely. If you count Discord and Telegram as social networks, they're still good.

"I'm just a little guy trying to be objective and explore the upsides to the fundamentally exploitive and destructive political project and how it might benefit me personally : )"

I suppose their position and work so far doesn't give them much space to antagonize anyone.

Thanks for sharing this. As a far away observer of all that's going on, this is very encouraging and good reads to boot. Good point about Anthropic which relates to a strange lack on discussion about possible "bad actors" on these documents.

Sign me up for this but my layman understanding is that it'd be more economic with regards to silicon and supporting infra to have centralized batch inference on larger machines. Might as well get the best models ar that point? Happy to be wrong on this.

And also, human curation can actually work online. You just need a culture and system in place to enable it. A modern example is Telegram, which used to be my primary haunt for a few years there. Not perfect
and I have so many words on this but its given me some strong opinions on what's optimal.

Human curation always beats algorithms on most metrics. Cost and ad incentives had eradicated it from most places that folks use that they don't appreciate it anymore.

I don't really know how to resolve all this. And I mean *all* this and not just the mania. This conflict predates AI as you put it, we were feeding ourselves to the grinder and writing slop for questionable ventures way before that.

"I know everything now (delegated), I can do everything now (delegated) so why am I not doing everything now (delegated)?" "I just have to pay for more tokens, this project will be done in a month."
