yet another cropped author attribution

inb4 beep runs this through an ai slop machine and removes author attribution

paid via paypal or crypto

yup. thats a scam.

how was the model trained?

proven open source content and data?

or stolen content and data?

oof ouch muh gun rights

FYI This site is satire.

what?

do you mean like recreational drugs?

how is that related to the fuel that … “transport?” runs on?

ezpz. “hello AI. remove all bugs.”

Job done! glhf

sometimes its fun to stress wrong letters, like throwing out “ess-Kwall” or “seh-Kwall”

Youre right in it needing to be rebooted, and thats sort of what im getting at. The technical side (the idea of how models work) is fine. Problem is big companies fed it with stolen content. And instead of optimising its performance they instead decided to burn even more of our environment.

I wholeheartedly agree that is evil.

But assume an entirely “untrained LLM” - its fed with truly proven open source, willingly contributed information, which then runs locally? I think thats ok.

Double checking the output - thats absolutely correct. I work in software development. I have dabbled with ai code tools. I would not let them ever touch my projects directly. Using one as a sounding board was slightly helpful. but knowing the cost and impact of these models currently, its not worth it.

Use gallons of water, and a dozen trees to feed the plagiarism machine to do my job for me? Never ever. fuck that.

Just edited my reply for context. Hopefully it explains at least my personal view.

LLMs provided by billionaire techbros? Burn that shit to the ground.

The scientific idea and application of ai when its helpful and relevant I dont see a problem.

The difference being no vibe coded ai generated bullshit ends up in the kernel. The use of this technology elsewhere can be completely fine, if its treated correctly.

But Im totally on your side with “openai llm vibe coded slop should never ever land in the kernel”. And I trust linus on that. given his history with regular 100% human maintainers, he wouldnt let that garbage slide.

“ai” as a term has become synonymous with openai, anthropic, gemini. theyre just LLM products sold by companies. They should never be near real critical production systems. But the wider scientific/technology side could be applied ethically - without using those LLM products

Im not trying to say one way or the other, or take anyone’s side here.

just putting into context “ai generated code in the linux kernel” isnt whats currently happening.

unless you have evidence otherwise.

edit - KDEs response maybe clarifies “ai” to me in this discussion.

We agree and we agree with many of your objections. AI has become a synonym of tech irresponsibility, greed and exploitation, like crypto was before it. The difference is AI existed before the current craze and pursued legitimate goals. That is still happening in some areas of AI research and ignoring all uses of AI would be throwing the baby out with the bath water.

LLM providers like OpenAI are scum. But the general technology around “ai” isnt as bad as that

Did you read Linus’ response on the mailing list? From that linked article

Given his sole control over what gets merged, thats all that matters.

also note hes discussing ai as a tool for reviewing patches. nothing about ai actually writing code.

make of that what you will

I have not yet seen any evidence of actual ai slop code being merged into the kernel

Where have you seen LLM generated code being merged into the kernel?

aka time is relative

just curious, why move away from tailscale?

carefully guarded trade secrets

AKA stolen content

Thanks! Thats more accurate

clock speed of 4GHz, which is far below AMD and Intel’s 5GHz.

phrasing is odd. 25% lower clock speed isnt “far below”

but also fuck nvidia

im british
