Splitting a big task (like anything ML-related) into a set of smaller ones and distribute them across the "fleet" of workers. Then reap the results, stitching it back into a single artifact at the end. This could be commercially viable. This could even become a p2p platform/market where some people basically buy computation while the others offer their hardware for temporary rent to earn a few bucks. You become the coordinator that just connects the demand with the supply and become rich from just commissions alone.

Doesn't the problem of quality now being barely distinguishable mean that manufacturers would aim to fool consumers by setting high prices to low quality goods to mimic as high quality goods (which probably can't be cheap by definition)?

If that is so - the rest of your points become invalid.

That's a good advice in general to treat any software as untrusted black box as much as possible. But it raises (slightly, but still does) the cost/effort for the user: the user now has to make extra steps and take extra caution.

These concerns were great valid even before vibecoding becoming a thing, but now the estimated probabilities of malicious code's presence have changed, simply because nowadays the cost/effort of writing software plummeted.

Because the input might be sensitive.

Because the input might be huge.

Because there is a risk of getting hallucinations in the output.

Isn't this obvious?

We, the readers, are still free to shit on your writing. You may or may not cry about it.

Haha, a fanboi got what he deserves. That's for feeding the evil with your money, for caving in to unfair demands. In your face!

Does anyone else get a problem with perplexity where its pages get completely frozen/unresponsive until you close the tab and reopen it? And most of the time the issue comes back in just a few seconds. This seems to happen if one opens more than 1 tab with perplexity in parallel.

Asahi project looks barely alive, almost abandoned. I know that their explanation of low activity is that they are being active elsewhere, supposedly pushing all their work upstream, but this has been happening for months and they don't give any reports about their progress, so I'm worried it will all die soon. And given that the project barely brought some Linux compatibility for m1 and m2 hardware and no prospects for bringing similar compatibility for newer generations - I fear it all will be kinda useless in the end.
