>productivity gains are when I do no work
That research was on models like a year old, they became useful ~Opus 4.5
>>108739544I know right opus is basically AGI at this point
>>108739548Far from it but i understand why you are terrified
>>108739534Different expectations and also >>108739544Those studies were made with the assumption that LLM based programming was already good enough to be autonomous for complex multi million LOC codebases and then they were surprised people having 5-10 years familiarity with those codebases were better at handling them than an LLM. Truly ground breaking research even back then.

>>108739605I'm gonna stick around, if only over curiosity about what will happen.

>>108739534it stunts your ability to do it yourself
>>108739635It already codes better than 99% of people
>>108739578Title: The Environmental Impact of Indian Pollution: A Systematic AnalysisIntroductionIndia, a country known for its rich cultural heritage and diverse landscapes, is also grappling with significant environmental challenges. This essay aims to explore how Indian pollution is systematically affecting the environment and how certain practices can be seen as parasitic entities.Air PollutionAir pollution is a critical issue in India, with major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata often ranking among the most polluted in the world. The primary sources of air pollution include vehicular emissions, industrial activities, and the burning of crop residues. These activities release harmful pollutants such as particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) into the atmosphere. The systematic nature of this pollution is evident in the seasonal spikes in pollution levels, particularly during winter when crop burning in neighboring states exacerbates the problem.Water PollutionWater pollution is another significant environmental issue in India. Industrial effluents, agricultural runoff, and untreated sewage are major contributors to water pollution. The Ganges River, considered sacred by many Indians, is heavily polluted due to the discharge of untreated sewage and industrial waste. This systematic pollution not only affects the aquatic ecosystem but also poses severe health risks to the millions of people who depend on these water bodies for their daily needs.Soil PollutionSoil pollution is a less discussed but equally critical issue. The excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture leads to soil degradation and loss of fertility. Additionally, the improper disposal of solid waste and industrial by-products contaminates the soil, making it unsuitable for agriculture and posing health risks to humans and animals.T. Dolphin
>>108739658Seems accurate since 99% of people don't code.
>>108739534Because your slop essays and projects have no value, and if you believe they do then make your startup and become rich.
>>108739534Apparently, Claude depends way more on its 500k LOC script than its AI. Anthropic accidentally leaked the script a month ago, and researchers have analyzed it.
>>108739764Same as any human. AI part is like your mind which can go crazy about all types of thoughts. But your education, social boundaries, culture and professional knowledge will filter it to something normal.We are simply making something human like. As we always do.

>>108739613I stick around to witness the inevitable fall of Israel insha'allah
>>108739534Because essays are not productiveAI can replace lots of jobs, but the jobs it replaces are bullshit jobs that never did anything productive in the first place
>>108740202The west is focusing on shitty chatbots and broken slop coding. Meanwhile China is pouring their AI efforts in robotics and medicine, providing real (physical) world benefits.
>>108740218>The west is focusing on shitty chatbots and broken slop coding. Meanwhile China is pouring their AI efforts in robotics and medicine, providing real (physical) world benefits.china has established communistic control so it focuses on development of something useful while american finance is still establishing communistic control, so they generate tools that solidify their control over truth.
>>108739534>Why does research show almost no productivity gains from indians but they can literally write whole ass essay in hours and can code a project within one dayhmm I wonder..
>>108739613 >>108739627I am hoping for Solarpunk.
>>108739534AI only increases productivity (without hurting quality) for a very small fraction of people who gravitate towards guiding the AI and then curating its results.Retards and lazy fucks just use AI to generate slop, and aren't smart enough to actually integrate the AI into their workflows seamlessly. While skilled workers tend to do things by hand. You need someone who is skilled, yet lazy, and with no ego (only a mercenary care for the end result).
>>108739534Easy, researchers find what they're paid to find.Obviously there are powerful financial interests that want to downplay the effectiveness of AI to drive down their cost to use it.

>>108739534#!/bin/shyes 'Look at how productive I am!'behold, infinite productivity
#!/bin/shyes 'Look at how productive I am!'
>>108741380Infinitely more money wants AI to be valuable (it's literally holding up 90% of S&P 500 gains in the past 5 years) and literally zero research has found that lol what
>>108741447S-STOP NOTICING THINGS!!!!1
>>108739989this
>>108741447Venture capital for AI wants AI to be valuable, but venture capital for tech startups wants it to be cheap.It's classic "money vs money" economics, where each side wants better than 1:1 exchange.
>>108739534Probably because real work doesn't consist of "claude, reproduce this open-source project you were trained on, but poorly" and also because the hallucination shit is a severe and crippling issue, every time I actually need AI for some issue I'm not certain about I ALWAYS have to perform extra time-consuming work to ensure that the stupid shit has not pulled something out of its ass instead.Turns out it pulls things out of its ass very frequently, I guess because when I'm not sure about something in my field then it's very likely something quite obscure and as such it's not going to be strongly represented in the training data, so it just makes shit up instead.If I use it to generate code directly the quality it produces is almost always quite low unless it's some super tiny snippet, but then again if it's a tiny snippet why fucking bother typing the prompt into the thing instead of just typing it out myself? Meanwhile if I have it generate a larger chunk, due to aforementioned low quality I have to spend time and effort on doing a proper review to ensure actual correctness.It feels like whatever productivity "boost" you think you might get is actually offset by some caveat so in practice what actually happens is that I just trade one kind of work with another, with no real time gained out of the whole deal. I think AI is only "productive" from the ignorant layman's perspective most of the time, if you have no clue how to do something then having the AI do a poor job is much better than nothing. If you're a layman then you cannot judge quality or correctness either, so you just gawk at it in wonder.I've done this myself. I needed some quick shit done in Powershell, but I don't use Powershell and I don't know Powershell. It was much quicker to ask the AI to pump something out and it worked. Was it robust, well-made and so on? I don't know, probably not, but it's better than nothing and quicker than me actually learning Powershell.
>I can literally write whole ass essays with chatgptGee, I sure wonder why there's no productivity increase. Hmmmm, it's almost as if outsourcing even the most basic of writing tasks to AI may be a factor...
>>108741404>Illegal number: yes
>>108739534more like ZeroSex
>>108739534Writing essays isn't productivity; it's you passing class. And writing software that already exists isn't productive in the least.You aren't old enough to post here.
>>108739534say you have an average programmer, and you give him a tool that puts him on par with an average programmer, what kind of gains do you imagine you'll see?
>>108743976the gains are from the tool being 100x faster than the average programmer at outputting average code
>>1087439760% lmao what the fuck is this post?
