but just imagine the brave new world, where a law firm has super-duper-frontier model and you're trying to argue with it in a court with your latest best local oss model (only 6 month behind the bestests ones).

easy: 1. Shit goes into S&P 500 (pump phase)

2. Shit goes to 0. Your 401(k) invested into S&P 500 takes a dive (dump phase)

3. Retail holding bags (full of shit) phase.

Case study: Tesla, with a P/E ratio in the hundreds along with declining sales and TAM, is a part of the S&P 500 and, consequently, of many people's 401(k)s.

I now think AI is a virus, which infects whatever it touches. Not just software, but the books (there're already slopbooks printed, and I'm not talking about fiction books, but rather real textbooks, history, music, art, etc...). In XX years what can you even trust? We will adapt and get around it, but I'm not yet sure how.

Yeah, and totally missed RAI part, billing, model deployment, security patches, rate-limiting, caching, dead GPUs, metrics, multiple regions, gov clouds, gdpr(or data locality issues), monitoring, alerting and god knows what else while at extreme loads.

I'd argue it will be even worse, you still remember how to do it, next gen of SDEs won't even try.

I stopped doing any personal stuff on a work laptop long time ago, like 10+ years ago. There is absolutely nothing on my work laptop which is not work related. Working from home though helps, I always have my laptop next to me. Same with the phone, under no circumstances I will do anything work related on my personal phone (and yes I do have a company provided phone with MDM and etc).

It was a sad day for me when I realized that a glass of orange juice(or any juice in general) isn't much better for your health than a can of soda and probably even worse than diet/zero coke.

I like how people come up with some analogy (and all analogies are wrong by definition) and then attack said analogy and based on that make a declaration on the original statement. But what if we use a different analogy: basically using an LLM is like skipping the whole learning process - not learning how to read, not learning how to write and not learning how to think, then what?
