To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to effectively use AI. The methodology is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical computer science, most of an LLM’s capabilities will go over a typical user’s head. There’s also the model’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into its training data - its internal architecture draws heavily from statistical mechanics, for instance. The true users understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these limitations, to realize that they’re not just bugs—they say something deep about an AI's operational boundaries. As a consequence, people who dislike using AI for coding truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the nuance in an LLM’s inability to debug a program, which itself is a cryptic reference to the halting problem. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as the LLM fails to get an overview of a repository larger than its context window. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, I DO have a favorite transformer architecture. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothing personnel kid 😎

NGL I always wanted to use IceWeasel just to say I did, but now it might be because it's the last bastion!

Not that it should be a regular thing but it is fun to watch this post get swarmed by slopfan reply guys

normally I'd say that's true but he wanted to impart the juggling in particular to his progeny

maybe his endgame is proving the halting problem

thought I checked it, my bad T_T

A couple months ago I lobbied for (and won) my weekly trivia team to use the name "mike's hard lemonparty"

Then I learned exactly how old I was

You're right, Borkfan is too easy to remember, my not-ban fork is now called Frabnok.

Look out, professional Nix crybaby Jon Ringer is back with his fork.

In other news, I have my own as well called Borkfan, absolutely not a ban fork due to my having threatened multiple people, but instead dedicated to the idea that a technology that lacks chud approval must necessarily not be in the true hacker spirit.

 

...except Liam can't decide whether to be a boomer or a piss baby about it.
