I think for developers the distinction is that ChatGPT is this commercial all in one solution for normies and Claude is specific for developers, in reality as you say the results for normal developers is indistinguishable.
I'm curious if you could give me an example of something that couldn't be down deterministically. We have fuzzy search/matching too ? Regex is a monster when used correctly.
A model can 'analyze' the intent of a patch, 'understand' it, and then correctly merge it in a derived codebase, going further than merely resolving conflicts.
Pretty much anything for which you'd need intelligence of any kind. Questions such as: Do these two paragraphs have the same semantic meaning? Do they have the same sentiment? Do these two methods have the same contract? etc.
Not all documents our code and even with code deterministic tools gets you only so far.
I sometimes find myself with thousands of log lines from a problematic execution and a known good reference, wondering nonspecifically if "something weird" happened in the first one. I don't think there's any matching-based solution there; you need a scan process that understands variations in execution time, object identifiers, etc. aren't meaningful.
You would need specific domain knowledge and a very clever parser, I've done one for a ridiculously over engineered system but a pain. That's fair but how often would you need it? Certainly not token maxing amounts!
It's a spectrum. Could it be worth it to run that as a first pass on every report of anything going wrong, just in case it produces a useful insight? Depends on how much engineering time it saves!
In practice, I've found the answer seems to be "not much", because human triage is still required to understand whether the insight is correct and useful. But I'm not sure that was obvious in retrospect.
It's this and worse. To use your example, it's like people using AI to write a diff algorithm, incorrectly, then using AI to fix it, because they don't know that diff exists already. Lazyness and starting development with a very low level of understanding. People think lowering the barrier to entry is a good thing, when in reality there are just fundamentals and things you just have to know before you can start using a tool like llms properly.
I was reding about this yesterday and my tinfoil hat started to rustle in the drawer.
It sounded like it really could have been a backdoor, that was complicated enough to not be an easy replacement to roll out without being detected, so Microslop tried to shut down the discovery as soon as possible, annoyed the wrong researcher and now they're at risk of really having to remove their back door to an administration that is not exactly understanding.
I had a smaller 13 inch laptop before that packed a punch but almost exclusively on the docking station and connected to screens, if I would on the sofa and thought I needed to do something really quick, I would grab it but it was painful. People just get used to things though, there are stories of people writing detailed packages on their phone sure!
Even now on 17 inches, I still use it exlusively on the dock with screens!
I can't read the full article, but the subtitle says :
> The only charge lodged against David Rush is that he inflated his academic credentials and obtained military leave pay worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Is this guys just very good at saving gold for CIA/personal reasons and it's still his or is this gold in related to some crime ?
Almost assuredly they charged him on the crime easiest enough to get a search warrant and arrest warrant and this original indictment will be superseded with one covering the full gambit of his crimes.
Hard disagree, there is just music people make because it's what they want to make, if all you're looking at is the top 10/pop radio music, yes it will be tailored for the largest market but by no means is there a conspiracy to only accomodate the 'young people'.
> I can easily create a 1 hour track in Ableton and have some minor variations every say 48 measures. It's basically just copy paste with some parameter variation which can be scripted.
What's the difference with AI doing it instead of your script ?
Is human-scripted art (e.g. https://nannou.cc/) art? Is music programmed to play on an orchestrion art? Is the music produced using a modular synth setup art?
If your answer to any of these questions is "yes", and your answer to "can AI create art" is no, then there is a difference between AI doing it and a script.
That said the discussion around "human" art and "AI" art often lacks nuance, and I believe there's lots of space to explore art that uses AI. Humans produce a lot of crappy art, this crappy art requires humans to invest time and effort. With AI it is possible for humans to produce lots of crappy art without investing time and effort, so an deluge of crappy AI art follows.
If I use AI to strip backgrounds instead of traditional greenscreen methods, is the end result "crappy AI art"? I'd hope no one sets those standards. I'd hope my videos would be judged as "crappy human art" since I still did the camera work the acting and the editing. If I use AI for visual effects in my video because I don't have visual effect training and don't have money to hire someone with experience (I don't make money from my occasional fun video projects), does that make it "crappy AI art"? I don't believe so. But somewhere between there and the content farm AI slop filling the Youtube servers there is a point where it becomes "crappy AI art" and I can't tell you where that point is because I'm still trying to figure it out.
Yeah, you make some good points, and it's an interesting question. There's far more nuance I guess that I considered, I guess what's a bit disheartening about the amount of generated music in this case is that it does make it harder for those who create and put really a lot of effort into their work to find some traction. Then again they said Spotify would ruin the music industry also, and to some degree it has only benefited a minority of artists.
I guess either way we will see. Art is only appreciated by those who appreciate it so who am I to judge.
I do think sometimes the interview process can be weird as hell, but if one is to name and shame it doesn't help really, they could change their processes and even take feedback but if there's a constant record of the oddities it can turn off potential perfect fits. I've been shocked how many people will base their approach off of Glassdoor reviews from 5 years ago for example.
I think it's fair for a company to improve, plus it makes for funny posts like this!
Also I'm not sure it's such a tabboo as it is a stigma on the applicant!
> Spain - like other European jurisdictions - considers prediction markets a form of gambling when bets are placed on uncertain outcomes.
What is the defense in the US for example that these are not gambling, "bets are placed on uncertain outcomes", it's that close to, if not the definition of gambling ?
The defense is that "Bets are placed on uncertain outcomes" also covers all kinds of insurance, the stock market, commodities markets, all kind of derivatives etc.
So where is the line drawn? In the US there has been a tremendous amount of money spent on lobbying to keep prediction markets on the not gambling side.
No because investment brokers, who you make your calls and puts with have a license.. Not the same thing. Nobody is asking the gamblers to have a licence, just the service provider.
Edit: not sure if you misspelt But for Bet, but a BET is certainly a gamble ?
Right, because it's not gambling, there are different regulations around gambling. All they need to do it GET their gambling license and they can continue, but in this case they will need to follow those regulations.
Such as (Italy in this case):
Offer self-exclusion tools for vulnerable players;
Implement identity and age verification procedures;
Comply with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and GDPR for data protection;
Pay online gaming taxes, which range between 20% and 25% of gross gaming revenue.
Ironically enough, sports players, in the NBA for example are not allowed place bets on their games etc, but they can bet on polymarket I suppose given it's not considered gambling ?
