And here I've tried generative LLMs about once a year and every time I go "what the fuck are people smoking to think this is good".

I think everyone insisting all this stuff is providing value are legitimately idiots who haven't spent even a half second thinking for themselves or about the future or the quality of their work.

I wish I was more dumb and saw these products working like you insist and didn't have to spend half my time rejecting AI slop PRs that genuinely don't address anything.

Except with stack overflow you can use your experience and pick the best code and onboard the comments discussing various aspects of the different answers. The LLMs don't do that.

They can just spit out whatever the fuck they want and there's no guidance or votes or comments. Just an averaging of everything.

Peter Cullen was the third I think.

Pretty sure Linux is cheaper...

Except they own those books only because they locked out regular people who want them and used insane amounts of capital they've stolen from said people to buy everything up.

This isn't a guy deciding to toss his copy of a book. This is a company who has destroyed industries and the environment and used basically slave labor forcing people to pee in bottles to meet insane requirements all to hoard wealth that they used to hoard more things.

Condensing it to"book owner does what they want with books they own" ignores so many historic and systemic problems that led to this.

You'd be correct. Recent estimates are that climate change caused issues will reduce global income by about 15% and cost $40 trillion annually by 2050.

They'd make more money by tackling climate change. It's in the math. But that math has to be done over multiple years not just next quarter as you said.

If you just ignore the MCU movies...

They're absolutely being "fixed" with AI too.

It was a whole thing back and forth that Linus finally ruled on. It's supposed to be under the purview of a specific human ultimately but as we've seen with countless other projects people get lazy fast with LLMs and testing and review does slip. I trust Linux overall to be better than many other projects yes, but to state AI is not doing development too when it's very much allowed and discussed is blind to what's been happening in the project.

The same way Windows is "fixing bugs" with AI? Large volumes of dubiously tested code is never a good idea

She clearly hasn't watched "Across the Spiderverse" then
