@CedricLevasseur believe it or not: im on your side in this story even if you disliked me because of what i said 🙂 that is all i care

@CedricLevasseur i personally would never hire AI to make software. It’s based on facts and over 20 decades of experience in this business. It would destroy creative distruption and would not bring edge in competition. I also read books only written by humans because im a human. AI is a cost. Person is an investment.

@CedricLevasseur I dont believe it does because most of time is figuring out what not how. It’s over rated

@CedricLevasseur @AuthorJMac @danslerush i use ai so rarely even in the use case i described that i even dont know what IA is. No interest on topic to ”do the research” either. I thought it was a typo

@CedricLevasseur @danslerush @AuthorJMac Dude, you should too.

@guenther lol very true, apologies :-)

@CedricLevasseur @AuthorJMac @danslerush E.g. software engineering: at most 10% is about the source code. Rest is human interaction and expectations, even in something as low-level as drivers and stuff like that.

I've always said that I would be as effective in statistics with Windows Notepad doing Linux drivers as I am on Linux system with vim even tho that will decrease my code productivity by factors. You pick the tools you like, the productivity and creativity are not affected. I personally love slow.

@CedricLevasseur @danslerush @AuthorJMac I have one useful application for AI that is also my main use case:

1. I have a Github issue with 100'ish comments with some relevant, some random nagging or generally irrelevant shit, links and shit.
2. I ask AI to aggregate the data, not add or remove new information but just give me report what is there so that I don't have to bother scrolling all the comments.

I don't get much of AI creating anything "new" for me because I do actually new stuff. It costs me time because even if AI generates me something I would need to go it through and I end up dissapointing result that I need to rewrite myself.

I've also empirically tested these theories because I don't believe in belief systems.

E.g. a platform bug makes it propose solutions that don't work because there's too many parameters that are not the source code per se like the environment it runs, and how people might want it to fly. If I give more feedback to the AI, it always ends up eventually proposing the same dysfunctional solution I started with.

But my first example: it s actually useful. I also know a startup that did a system for customer service, which does not replace it but instead quickly provides context information for the call service person, which makes the work less stressful and customers get highest possible result. Nobody likes to talk AI on phone.

Whenever there is a new tech it will take all our jobs but eventually it settles and integrates. E.g. if AI really did that it would start feeding back itself with its own data because everything would be generated by AI. Even some studies have started to shown evidence that this can cause a feedback alzheimer kind of condition for the LLM.

I did my homework on this. Thus, not worried.

Got some books. The bottom one: I'm familiar with it just did not have my personal copy. Made sense to order it now as I pre-ordered Randal Hyde's (aka a living legend) new ARM edition: https://nostarch.com/art-arm-assembly-volume-1

@cos oh thanks!

C64 made me trip at BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/jarkk0.bsky.social/post/3lhdx7nepoc25

@Turre yep and if you are not using some social media you mostly hear about bad things going on. grabbed your point fully :-)

BTW, randomly bumped into old C64 marketing material from PCI-Data Oy:

@Turre and also Surge VST is there apparently. And wasn't Skrolli too?

Also: what I said probably applies to all social media :D

@Turre OK, that sounds nice :-)

Why I every time I hear something about Discord it is next level fucked up nuclear waste?

False compromising claims (sexual abuse etc.), death threats, hate campaigns and other aligning stuff that is better to keep distance off.

Never been there so might be wrong.

@dec_hl @eLearningTechie

I just live by these rules in all scenarios:

1. There is a situation.
2. I figure out the AR's.
3. I do my best with varying success rate (I'm pretty good at fucking things up too sometimes).

That is not same as being ignorant. If there is something that I can prepare based on actual evidence, I will.

Future is fucking hard to predict anyhow. All I can say: don't panic.

Speculaversum is just not my cup of tea. Neither judging nor saying that my thoughts are better than anyone else's but this just works for me, and keeps me going.

If the shit blows up, then the shit blows up.

Don't panic.

@eLearningTechie Good! I salute to that :-)
