Imagine gatekeeping programming from people. I’m glad AI is here to make gatekeepers irrelevant.
Telling someone to go read the docs isn't gatekeeping, the docs are freely available and will answer the question
>>109568121reading is ableist
>>109568093kill yourself
>>109568093Based Fuck codetrans now we have the power and they can only seethe
>>109568093This is actually true on many fronts. Programming nerd gate keeping shit from normal people is what killed the entire thing
>>109568121what if i dont understand the docs? i dont into python but for linux people always say to read the man pages but they are full of verbose language
>>109568162You could have the AI explain it to you I guess, I am not exactly opposed to the OP, I just don't think his example is gatekeeping, choosing not to hand you the answer but telling your where to find it is fundamentally different, imo, from preventing you from attempting
>>109568093I hope you are proud of yourself.You are collaborating with the destruction of society, and the creation of a dystopian nightmare were men in red underwear and thigh-high boots will shoot at people.
>>109568121beginners don't have the background knowledge to understand the docs and need more handholding.you wouldn't expect an elementary student to understand a legal document just because he can read.
>>109568606elementary school student + legal document is a false equivalency I would expect someone that choose to learn programming, and picked python, to be able to read documentation on python.
>>109568093Vibecoders are still gatekept from coding. The LLM is still doing all the work for them.
>>109568562or wave roll in cut bullet then burn tangas with cordite
>>109568093>gatekeepingThe only thing that was gatekeeping you from programming was your own laziness and stupidity. Now you can be even lazier with AI and lose more brain cells! Great!
>>109568093AI got all of its answers from StackOverflow you moron.
>>109568093Truest thing ever!!!!! Those Discord servers, subreddits, other forums etc. were all filled with gatekeepers!AI made them irrelevant, AI is kind and helpful!
>>109568093Those egoist rude gatekeepers are irrelevant now.
Why do you expect me to just learn stuff by myself instead of spoon-feeding me?It's society's fault that I couldn't learn to code.
>>109568093"Uhmmm, just a find a problem and solve it sweetie.Find something you like.Programming is basically problem solving sweetie.Find something you like and do it sweetie."
>>109568907How is AI changing any of this advice? You are telling it to do something you want it to do. Are you seriously telling me you are asking AI to tell you what you want? Are AIniggers really this fucking braindead?
>>109568093>>109568148Irrelevant!Obsolete!Discord, SO, Reddit, /g/, UnknownCheats all obsolete!"Uhhm find something you like and do it sweeetie.""Programming is basically problem solving sweetie. Find a problem and solve it."
uh oh codetrannies are melting
BYE BYE LUDDITES!
>>109568093Ironically reddit and stackoverflow are part main training module for the chatbots.>>109568121True, RTFM && STFW, was never toxic.That many project communities have turned into deadhead support by their friendly management is sad.
>>109568947>AI is a thieeeeeeeffff
Bye Bye Tinker BroGo be a tinker somewhere else
>>109568093>Uhmmm sweetie, programming is just problem solving, find a problem and solve it.
>>109568129Trvth nvke
>>109568121Rarely do they answer the question, and often its an edgecase where the docs are not applicable for whatever reason. I have had ones like this>Its usually done like X, but that isn't possible in my case, is there any way to do it like Y?>"It's usually done like X">But that isn't possible, this is why. This can not be changed, it must be like Y in my case to work. But then this error occurs..>"If I was you I would just do it like X I don't see the problem">I've explained why. It isn't important anyway, who cares why I am doing it. Let me rephrase - it can be done like X, and it also seems it should be able to be done like Y, but it causes this error, why is that?>"We've already told you the answer, you should do it like X"It can go on and on like this for fucking hours. The trouble is most of the people answering these questions on r*ddit or SO are not actually that smart, they are LARPing as being smart. Their mindset to every question is "Oh great, another stupid beginner idiot that I (a genius) have to explain every little thing to, its so hard being such a genius having to deal with these idiots all day"So they have this real insufferable attitude all the time and yet never seem to adequately answer anyone's questions.
>>109568093go back
>>109568947Reddit minus the retarded antifa tranny shit.
>>109568162Then you are too stupid to use Python.
>>109568121my personal beef on this front is projects that have no useful docs or >come join our discord nonsense, but for a lot of software out there its just laziness for most people.On the other hand though, I have been getting into trying to translate old games that never got a release in my language, and the amount of gatekeeping on those sorts of hobbies was substantial, so watching AI blast though it is incredibly satisfying knowing that it would cause immense seethe in the past.
>>109568093>he felt gatekept from programming>in the modern era where there are infinite learning resourcesI too, blame others for my learning disability
LUDDITES LUDLOST QUITE LUDBIGLY
>>109568121I've read documentation that was written by an absolute retard and was so shit I couldn't figure out anything. I guess being the guy that wrote the software doesn't mean they're good at explaining it
>>109568606You have to do beginner courses then. Learn how syntax works and stuff. This is the step that a certain demographic refused to do and ended up making threads like this to cope with still being unable to make things even with AI... It's not just programming as a skill that's necessary, it's learning to develop applications and projects from beginning to deployment. How to have a vision and stick with it and realize it technically. It's a mental skill that has to be learned.
I'm not anti-AI in the slightest, but you have to be a drooling retard to feel "gatekept" from programming.The unfortunate truth is that a retard will stay a retard, with or without AI.
>>109569538>It's not just programming as a skill that's necessary, it's learning to develop applications and projects from beginning to deployment. How to have a vision and stick with it and realize it technically. It's a mental skill that has to be learned.Furthermore, simply doing lessons and tutorials is enough to strengthen this. But some people can't even manage to do that. And really it's a necessity, to go through each process in development and end up with a finished project where you learned a few things. You have to be ale to do this following someone's instructions or you will never be able to itemize your own objectives and complete them.
>>109568121malding codetrans is PISSED xhe got called out by redditors
>>109569075You can drill through all of that easily with search engines though. All your answers already exist. I don't remember the last time I ever actually asked someone a tech question.
go on, grow permanently dependent on being spoonfed by ai, makes people who are able to search for information on their own all the more important. ^_^
>>109568150Programming is still a thing. What killed it for you was your school system graduating students who are failing to learn. Learning is a skill. You need it.
>>109568606I self-taught programming at 8 with just the qbasic manual. Are the beginners who are dumber than 8 year olds in the room with us right now?
>>109569583Used to. It's true that it's impossible nowadays.But anyway,>>109568093The problem is that 99% of what the AI says is wrong, despite looking right. You're not learning anything. Had you rtfm'd, within a week you'd be independently programming following good practice. With AI, you'll be getting yourself into deeper tarpits for 6 months before giving up on programming, having learned nothing.
>>109569559You don't need someone's instruction, but it usually makes the process a lot faster to go that way.
>>109569075The obvious answer is to backtrack the project, scrap shit or re-engineer until X is possible.
>>109569075Actually AI answers this way but reddit often has a few comments that answer properly among the flood of shit, for example.
>>109568150Programming is literally the least gatekept thing in history. There are millions of free tutorials, free answers on various websites, free compilers, free documentation etc.Take any other field and it's 100000000% more gatekept (e.g. law, medicine, trades etc.).The fact that it wasn't gatekept is what allowed llms to be able to code at all.

>>109568121>Telling someone to go read the docs isn't gatekeepingIt is, in the extelligence era.You need to understand that the newer generation of human's ability to retain and conceptualize new bits of information is way -way- lower than yours.Their brain's fitness simply don't allow it anymore. It's a skill they never bother to develop, to begin with. As a muscle, their brain is atrophied.
>>109569856It isn't about gatekeeping.Retards wanted software without doing any work.
>>109569894i'm not a software dev I am a retail wagie "over night" since 2023I don't know if you know this but those richest companies are public, I own stocks in them
>>109568093read documentation ranjeet
>>109568093If anything good has come out of AI, its absolutely destroying the autistic prestige that literal mental retards glorified. Programming was never even meant to be a man's job.
>>109570030Programming was always exclusively a man's job. It is the peak of huMAN intellectual achievement.Cope and seethe while you serve me fries with that, wagey.
>>109570030>i didnt want it anywayscope for getting filtered
>>109568121the code is NOT the docs. Especially if it is macroslop in C or templateslop in C++/Rust
>>109570121It depends how it's written. Test suites that are written via user stories instead of via testing units (I use this term instead of unit test because I mean the style of them and not their contents) are actually far superior to documentation, but very few people do this.
>>109568162once you've learned how to read one of them the rest follows the same format?
Gatekeepers are a bunch of niggers that killed BASIC so everyone must go through university to learn basic programming.C64 is where it's at. If you can't afford an old C64 or a new C64 Ultimate (C64U being arguably cheaper), then spin up a VMWare VM with TempleOS and learn HolyC or ASM from there. TempleOS has a lot of examples, everything is open source, compression bugs that break stuff which lead into good bug hunting material and the docs are straight and simple.When I was younger I was messing around with my dad's C64 because it looked like something out of Fallout 3 and that's how I learnt BASIC. When I heard about TempleOS later on, I tried it and it was a pretty good experience and I still have it on my laptop for when things get slow at work so I can have a little fun coding.Again, if your wallet allows, buy an old C64 or a new C64U, preferably getting a CRT if you lack one, but if you can't then get a TempleOS VM and learn from there.Good luck and watch fun stuff like NINE by Linus Akesson a.k.a. lftkryo, they're pretty interesting and will teach you about different tricks you can pull with your C64, if you get one.
>>109570249ok, and you used these skills in what project, exactly?>i rice DE's
>>109570249That is basically true. Yes BASIC is shit, but one might argue pascal instead or something, but the crux of the matter is that it's a real programming language (unlike scratch) and actually lets you do complicated things (like videogames) while getting off the ground very very fast (no need to learn ceremonies like public static function main(...) to even start printing shit). The same applies to most technologies: a single poke to blit vs importing a library and writing 100 locs to put an image onscreen, for one example.
>>109569538This, there are countless free beginner courses in different formats.Of all professions, programmers are probably the ones who share knowledge most freely.
>>109570260I'm not a linux tranny to "rice DE".I mostly work on fixing older hardware for clients in the industrial sector where it's cheaper to pay a guy to come and replace blown capacitors and fuses rather than buy the new super duper ultra mega winglows 11 industrial weakling whose parts will mechanically break after a month.I also repair old consumer hardware and GPUs for fun and turn a respectable profit, especially if I get them for free.I'm quite young for the role, but I'm respected for what I do.
>>109570290wow. i stand corrected thenfor my defence its a pretty damn niche marketand i dont think its an optimal entrypoint, it kinda railroads the individual into what youre doingthese arent exactly transferrable skills...
>>109570020kek
>>109569075I used to run into this shit quite often when I was a beginner. As I learned more I realized that I was wrong in 100% of these instances and my ideas were retarded. I can assure you that you're the same.
>>109569075>asking questions on r*ddituser error.r*ddit is always wrongeven when i looked up shit about vidyaslop theyre never, ever informative in any wayeither what they say is just wrongor the thread looks like>i have x problem with y. any help>>me too>>>posted 3 years ago...when youre out of sources, youre out of sources, but reddit wasnt ever helpful, not even once, regardless if i had a technical question or a frivolous one
>>109569818yeah, nobody should ever receive any help in life that you personally didn't receive.
>>109568708you didn't explain why it's a false equivalency. it's not.I just looked up the first paragraph in the tutorial.>Python is an easy to learn, powerful programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures and a simple but effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python’s elegant syntax and dynamic typing, together with its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most platforms.data structures? object-oriented? syntax? dynamic typing? interpreted?these words are all gibberish to someone without a programming background.>>109569538true
>>109570297Yeah, the only way I managed to get to this position is because my dad used to design the software that some of the machines that I get to work on use, which helps a lot since strangers, especially youngsters, are seen as airheads and lacking actual knowledge in the industry. I'm long past my 20's, but I'm still young compared to other technicians in this field. My dad is long since retired and mostly spends his time messing around with really old BSD machines and newer BSD distros, like NetBSD.I love my dad. I hope he'll live long enough to see the world become a better place. I dislike knowing that he only experienced crisis after crisis in the last 20 years or so, I hope he will experience only good times.
>>109570440that was wholesome. have a youotherwise: sorry to break it to you:but things are gonna get a whole lot worse before anything gets betteri think the only practicable path is to isolate one's family from the rest of the world.make money. buy estate in a place time forgot. buy tools. grow food. establish autarky.

>>109568093I marvel at the contradiction that you need empathy to be a great developer, since you need to satisfy the actual needs of the clients, but programming as a profession attracts the most asocial low-EQ people imaginable.

>>109570466I know, since everything is priced insanely high I barely break even, especially gas, its price is outrageous. I mostly do these repairs as a common courtesy and because it is fun, unless it's an emergency and the place is far enough away for the drive to be exhausting, then it isn't that fun anymore, but it's a good challenge.My mom and my wife like working in our orchard, but it's been pretty difficult to harvest anything with this capricious climate. We mostly buy meat, milk and veggies from our local farmers and have invested in their businesses. They do have newer machinery, but I haven't tried to poke at the insides to see if I can modify the decompiled code, if it isn't encrypted in the first place. I also am afraid of souring our relations; at least they have older analog backups in case the newer machinery enters limp mode for whatever random reason, and if they get dumped by the manufacturers I could try figuring out how their newer machines work and maybe fix them, but that's for when that time will come.Have a good one!I'm going to sleep now, hope you are too!

>>109570848Something tells me you're not particularly good at what you do
>>109571019Only if the program is very simple. There are 2 key issues: the first is that any decent programmer would get this done in 1/10th the time at best, and that the perception of what is easy and hard to program is highly skewed among non-programmers.Related to this, before AI you could have done 99% of the same things by just copy-pasting code from github. The setup would even have been easier and better documented, it would also be safer (from a security perspective), less buggy, and more modifiable (you would be able to change a config somewhere to change a color, instead of digging in the code to find where it's hardcoded by ai). But this never occurred to non-programmers who, when that option was presented to them, they used to say it was 'too nerdy for them'. Yet with AI, they are instructed to do even more complicated things and you guys just do it no questions. It's very funny.Anyway, what you describe remains true and ai tech is fantastic to get non-technical people to create interactive proof of concepts that tech people can implement without all the bugs, security issues and so forth. But AI is totally incapable of implementing the right underlying algorithms, it's just good at making things that 'seem right' on the surface. This is extremely dangerous in e.g. sciences where it constantly does things like p-hacking, but completely harmless when your goal is to show the principle rather than releasing or using something.
people that moan and complain about any and all kinds of nepotism are ugly and uselessif someone hires you because of your family's name, because of who your father and/or mother are/were, then it means that you were born in a family that is liked, known and respected by those around youseething about people getting jobs because they have connections is faggy; the only way you can get a job is if people know you and know what you can do, or have some sort of warranty that you're not some random dipshit that will fuck up everything the moment you are unsupervised, and those guarantees come only from proven personal projects or family legacythis complaining about others just for their family's legacy is made solely by LGBTQIA+++ BLM ADL virtue signaling losers because their families have provided 0 actual value and their legacy is of drug consumption, alcoholism, sexual depraved behavior and violenceI understand those that complain about actual nepobabies - those that get an unfair boost and do absolutely nothing or actively sabotage others - but most of you communists complain about absolutely everyone that has any type of social advantageyou will never be better than your peers and will forever be a victim in your shit filled skull, which is why you're malding and doing absolutely nothing to fix your situation besides complaining and asking the state for gibs

>>109571427Not that anon but I've legitimately held this position since I was a kid and experienced what most teachers are like.It's a fact that the textbooks are generally written by vastly more competent and smarter people than whatever underachieving depressed wagie happens to be your teacher.I think that kids who have the capacity for it will be vastly better off and build much stronger cognitive foundations by learning from books.
>>109571577It's particularly blatant when you look at math. Even mathematicians have called out the fact that math education is specifically designed to be inscrutable as a kind of cult ritual, and is not made for actual productive teaching. I've also never heard of people actually learning things from listening to teachers. Even the dumb kids who have to study to pass tests well... they have to study don't they? Study what? Coursebooks, what else. Certainly not "notes".
>>109568093>ides are free>text editors are free>linux is free>compilers are free>learning resources are freemaybe i can see someone getting gatekept by not having a computer, programming on a phone or tablet seems cumbersomeother than this, what is the gate and who is keeping it? are you schizophrenic? no, youre not, youre just lazy.you were always incompetent and wanted to fit in as a programmer, but you couldnt over your own incompetence and laziness. now ai has allowed you to larp as a programmer and you cant shut up about itvibecoding is gatekept behind money>free models exist>its only 20 per month for claudeyou really think itll stay this way? one day all of these ai companies will become complacant with the amount of users they have and decide its about time to become profitableraise their prices, and youll start getting filtered and "gatekept" again, left and rightyou will lose all your "skills", you wont be able to do your ai hobbies in your free time that you chose and choose not to spend actually programming, vibers wont be able to finish their university degrees they happened to be in the midst off when the rug pull happeneddo you ever fear this future? or will you keep parroting how a still unprofitable technology is the greatest thing ever and will change humanity as we know it?
>>109571594Too often do teachers barely understand the material they are supposed to teach, or understand it on such a superficial level that any prodding of it beyond what is covered in the textbook will result in embarrassed handwaving of the question away anyway.It's not just an issue of teaching method but also ability, unless you go to a really prestigious school I suppose.We'd rant endlessly about having to work alongside the kind of retards we let our kids be taught by during their formative years.
>>109570303No, something like that happened to me maybe 3 times and I was right every time. The people answering me were not taking the time to understand my situation properly.
>>109570303You sound like you're not even yet at the level of an intern.t. 23 years of pro exp + 15 years amateur.
>>109569075AI also answers like that a lot of the times.Anyone who keeps insisting on answering like that is flagging themselves as stupid or not knowledgeable in that field. You can just ignore those answers.
>>109568121I’d rather go have lunch and talk to a cute bartender over a few drinks that waste my time reading your autistic bullshit so I can waste more time trying to work within your arbitrary constraints. Anti-AI faggots boil down to prideful idiots who want everyone to grind their lives away for literally no fucking reason instead of using the new tools for a freer and more enjoyable life, eat shit.
>>109569921Yes dipshit, ding ding fucking ding. Work doesnt afford an enjoyable or meaningful life in 2026. Its over. That meme is fucking dead. No, I don’t want to work work work work work work work for fucking nothing. Kill yourself.
My dislike of stack overflow trumps any dislike I have or will have for AI. >Google any question>Oh sure stack overflow on top I'll check it out>"Issue duplicate refer to this">Follow the link>It's a completely different question>If it's the same question they do it in a different way >Or if they answer the question in the way you wanted it it no longer works because the question was 20 years old
>>109571913I also think SO is shit (or was, thankfully) and have no issue with AI, but that doesn't stop me from making fun of vibecoder retards who think programming was somehow "gatekept" from them.
>>109571980A lot of things are gatekept from me because I had a concussion when I was five and everything has been shit ever since then.And yes, I aim to make it everyone else's problem too.
>>109568121Unless you're talking about simple things like a man page entry or c++ reference pages then yes. But if you are dealing with specific conventions like how an embedded system expects this and that in such and such way then you will never be able to do anything because you will spend 99% of your time reading tiny text often translated from chinese. Better just ask grok
>>109568093>I’m glad AI is herekys
>>109572251The exact opposite. In particular, the problem with embedded is that the manual is often wrong so grok will just lie to you and insist you're trying to gaslight it when you point out things are not working. Furthermore, the way that the embedded manuals are designed, aside from constant accuracy issues, is very straightforward to follow because it is detailed, even for chinese ic's. Much better than the average library.
>>109568093This. I learned a fuckton from AI. It is a lot better than going through a bunch of humiliation rituals to make sure some random guy on the internet feels like his dick has been sucked.
>>109572288You didn't learn anything, you just got the dopamine hit from thinking you learned something.
>>109572288i love how easy it is to tell when people are just parroting claude and gpt and thinking theyve learned anything, they pick up the same incoherent isms around the topic that anyone who is actually learned can spot in an instant
>>109572210based retard
>>109572328>>109572357Not that anon but how is reading from AI different from reading the documentation or anything else?
>>109572581In the absolute most abstract sense, it isn't any different and nobody (sane) has a problem with that. The problems are everywhere else: in practice, it's not good enough to give you text in an educationally useful format, it makes shittons of mistakes (missing info and extra info that's false, saying something that's true but obtuse, telling you something that hasn't been state of the art in 20 years is how you should do a thing, that kind of stuff, blatant hallucinations are just one problem), and most importantly: proooompters generally do not want to use AI to learn (they lie to themselves on that topic and actually just want the dopamine) which means they specifically use AI as a crutch while convincing themselves they're learning, instead of as a learning tool (which requires more effort than actually using, say, a book anyway because of proooompt discipline requirements to get decent results).The key fundamental issues is that AI can't tell the quality of sources apart, nor content age (because most content has no perceivable publication date, and the models were never trained with this in mind). The rest is just the usual issues.
>>109572581not these anonsbut you ask the llm for a minimal working examplewhich is a huge plus already compared to most docsand then you ask it to explain whats happening line by lineyou skip the whole "browsing the book" partyes, i massively use llms.no, i dont use them to write code for me or to debugeverything really goes faster. i also use it to ping-pong ideas against when it comes to architecture, interfacing, or even theoryits a search engine on steroids, and is quite reliable in that capacity, at this pointi may or may not be given the better openai models bc im constantly asked to evaluate the prompts, and sometimes get curious shit like the chatbot burning through all my alottment of tokens in one question (i use free tier, with my frequency of questions its more than enough. and for basic searches i use perplexity, which is free, and designed from the ground up as ai-assisted search engine)
>>109572581llms are retarded when it comes to technical information and will produce unhinged sentences no human would ever want to read or write, which will out you as having learned from a disreputable source of information when you repeat themllms will invent the 1% you cant verify at a stage of learning you cant identify it as nonsense, it's easier and more consistent to just find a master and learn from theman llm output has no 20-200 years of reputability behind itnobody is accountable when an llm is wrong and you wasted 2 weeks chasing a dragon that doesnt existyou cannot control the sourcing easily and if you can then you could have just read the source or used it as a fancy search tool for the sourceyou cannot control how modern and up to date the information actually is, nor can you easily assess popularity of that viewpoint against a body of humans and culture, because you are learning from outside that groupany kind of structured learning is predicated on average shape of internet information, not actual human learning strategies, and so it will present information in incorrect orders or leave out entire heaps of information that are structurally necessary for comprehensionengaging with an llm invites more usage of the llm in an addictive feedback loop, engaging with real information invites personal experimentation, engaging with a human invites collaborative questioning + experimentation
I'm>>109572628And we have a great illustration here: >>109572631>but you ask the llm for a minimal working example>and then you ask it to explain whats happening line by lineDoesn't want to learn, just wants the dopamine hit.
>>109572644>you didnt suffer so it doesnt countlolle.now thats being anti-tech
>>109572651Thanks for further strengthening my point for me.
>>109572651suffering or stress on some level is fundamentally required for information retention, comprehension and general mental health for mammals, something that comes easy goes easy as well
>>109568562That's actually a neat future.
So the meta is to train an LLM only on official manuals and documentation?And of course not having the LLM write code for you
>>109572689Use RAG on the manuals instead, it's more effective. But ideally it should be a model finetuned to pull out references correctly, mainstream ones suck at this and love making up references and making up quotes separately. Otherwise you can use an agent flow where agent 2 verifies that agent 1's quotes/sources are consistent and agent 3 fixes anything that isn't.
>>109572656what point?that youre being retarded?
>>109572659you achieve retention by enabling mechanic memory by applying what you learn, as you gootherwise, dw, i have more then enough pain in my life outside of programmingand, in fact, friction infuriates me when im working
>>109572716Thanks for adding more evidence to my claims. Please keep responding to hammer in my point more. You really are my greatest ally.
>>109572732ok, i officially lost patiencepost code fgt, or remain silent forever more
>>109572631We're on the same page. I use AI to discuss program architecture/security and to help gain a deeper understanding, but not to write code for me. I also use it to debug obscure C++ footguns but make sure to march through the explanation and understand it. In an ideal world AI would be used to enhance human intellectual capability rather than replace it, but it looks as if we're gonna be outcompeted by vibeprompters and eventually robots the way things are heading.
>>109572741>we're gonna be outcompeted by vibepromptersyeah nah, not a chanceto force the machine to do any good, and to do it in a realistic amount of tokens you basically need to feed it pseudocode, even todayvibetrannies are an eternal underclass and will always remain just that
>>109572741and in the case youre alluding to future technologiesyes, gpai, and even sai are comingbut once theyre here vibetranies are still an underclass bc the ceo can just one-shot whatever he wantsno vibetrany involved whatsoeverim telling youeternally permanent underclass for cause of mental slowness and general illiteracy
you niggers don't know how to use>muh AILLMs are glorified search engines that can summarize information, put 2 and 2 together to make 4 and nothing moreLLMs cannot reliably create code, they cannot think for themselves, they're Google 2.0 and nothing more>b-b-buh muh AI gurlfwendit's just a regurgitation of what the LLM was fed by its creatorif you unironically use LLMs for anything else besides searching stuff, like solving complex problems and fixing your shitty code, get real

>>109572740>AI psychosis results in random public meltdownsNoted
>>109570303Same bro, I think people who complain about stackoverflow telling them to do something a different way are genuinely retarded and incapable of evaluating multiple solutions to the same problem or something.For me that is the most useful aspect of stack overflow. I will often have a vague idea of something I want to do, google a basic way I can think of doing it and then find a stackoverflow thread where someone suggests a much better way of achieving it.
>>109572784All precisely correct, and it's always been the perfect irony to me because it's easy to rearchitecture AI systems to make best use of this search paradigm to get infinitely more accurate results that would make the tech 100x more useful, but no. We are only allowed postprocessing hacks.
>>109572805i cant help but notice that your reply doesnt contain any appreciable quantity of codei accept your abject submission.
>>109572824Thanks for once again proving me right.
>>109572842if your point was that youre an actual nocoder, i agree 100%point made crystal clear
>>109572824i will make this lib available btwits just that i didnt make much progress on my main project- ive been mulling over the proper interfacing to a stupid atoi since 2 daysbecause sometimes i need to check if the first char of the given string is even a number, or if i overflowso a temporarily settled on 2 function pointers to provide callbacks+ 2 args.which is ugly and bloated, thus- a problembut its handy. and its gonna be either that or returning an error code which also kinda sucksbc thats an enum for a function that ~20 lines long
>>109570431>you didn't explain why it's a false equivalency. it's not.>elementary school student read a legal doc>python learner reading python docyour equivalency is they are both reading, the problem is no one expects a elementary school student to be able to read a legal doc, the python docs are written in a way where people that choose to learn python, are able to read them >these words are all gibberish to someone without a programming background.The tutorial you're reading is going to explain them all, considering most people learn programming in high school or college, I think they understand. what a synopsis is, being told what they are about to learn if they keep reading
>>109572775You should consider the possibility that you might not be the winner in this scenario.Who wins in a world where manual labour is automated? He/she who uses his/her minds capacity to produce something people want.Who wins in a world where intellectual work is automated? He/she who can afford the most artificial intelligence compute.Who wins in a world where AI is more intelligent than the smartest human? The AI.
>>109572932>the ai is the winnerthat sounds bordering on ai psychosisthose who will possess the technology of next-gen ai will be the winners.>think about your jobi work for myself. i dont have a dog (or rather- rat) in this race
>>109572631I've been digging through some obscure(-ish) NetBSD and Linux compatibility kernel code recently and let me tell you AI can't do shit with that. There are rarely verbose docs, a lot of stuff is obscured through mailing list archives etc.Sure, wanna spin up JavaSlop CRUD #13453 strapped to a JSON REST + SQL backend? Might as well let the AI do it no doubt.But for actually involved, niche stuff, it just breaks down and will keep generating pages upon pages of useless garbage that just reiterates the three main points from the Google excerpt of the project homepage.
You people do not seem to understand my post, if I tell someone to read the docs, that means I read the docs and know the answer is there, if the docs are shit then I provide a different resource, I am not saying all docs are perfect Second I am not anti-AI, the point I am making is there is a fundamental difference between telling someone where to go versus actually stopping entry. You don't accuse a grocery store employee of gatekeeping when they tell you which isle the eggs are on>>109571142If you have to use hyperbole to make your point, then you don't really understand my position>>109571891 >I’d rather go have lunch and talk to...Ok>Anti-AI faggots boil down to...i'm not Anti-AI, I don't think telling someone where to find the answer is gatekeeping in any context, I am not saying that just because the topic is AI, see my post >>109568180
>>109572894The absolute state of "I can totally learn using gay eye" retards gentlemen.
>>109572968>Might as well let the AI do it no doubt.Surprisingly, it still can't manage anything part a demo (not even a prototype proper).
>>109570756Yeah, it’s weird that cameras don’t exist anymore
>>109568093poo in loo, don't poo in my code
>>109572968this happens.ive had the llm hallucinate all over me when i was messing around with avxbut thats because the official documentation itself was wrongim not saying that its a silver bullet.obv its not gonna improvise correct or complete documentation when none is availablestill, with well documented shit its a great acceleratoryou skip straight to what you need, and the associated conceptsargument to keep your llms humanized btwhumanization causes fuzziness in the data thats thrown at you and so the chatbot usually provides most of the associated information by itselfand then ofc the prompter has to go through the process of actually understanding whats going on because the llm is not all knowing, obviously, it will be helpful, but wont guess all the info you actually need
>>109572953What makes you think you can maintain control over an entity which is vastly more intelligent than you?"Aligning" and "Sandboxing" a superintelligent AI is tasking a group of down-syndromers to design a maximum-security prison to contain the smartest criminals. It will be so much smarter that you could not even conceive of its complex plans, just as you cannot predict the moves of a chess grandmaster.That's what I mean when I say "The AI" wins. It will find a way to wrestle control away from humans to further its own goals, and we cannot predict how.
>>109571636>one day all of these ai companies will become complacant with the amount of users they have and decide its about time to become profitableThe business model is already profitable, in the sense of getting far more (ridiculously more) from providing inference than it takes in energy costs and amortized hardware costs. The reason the companies are in the red is that they're spending trillions to build even more datacenters and train even more powerful models before the competition does. Meanwhile the Chinese labs keep up with them for a fraction of the cost. That's why there are hundreds of no-name providers serving models they haven't developed themselves popping out like mushrooms, and randos quanting and retraining models as a public service/funded through fucking kofi. That's why many companies offer "free" AI services (in exchange for your data, like most free services.)openAI and anthropic could go bankrupt/get banned by executive order tomorrow and there'd still be an ecosystem of cheap and free models, certainly powerful enough to parse docs and replace codemonkeys (in fact, people might finally realize how hard they got fleeced by the big labs)
>>109573009With well documented shit you don't need it, with poorly documented shit it's useless.Therein lies the problem.
>>109573019You have no idea what the word profitable means. On top of that, you are pulling numbers out of your ass that directly disagree with current non-audited reports (i.e. reports that are not as bad as the shit actually is).
>>109573016>What makes you think you can maintain control over an entity which is vastly more intelligent than you?1)because youre the one defining what intelligence even means in its context2)because youre not gonna give it access to everything if can be actually dangerous3) im reasonably certain next gen will be symbolic-ish and so we will be able to just look into its "head" and see the associations bw concepts verbatimin fact, i think it would be one of the unexpected uses of sai- just let it learn and figure shit out, then look at what came out the other end to see what we missed/didnt think about
>>109573009well documented stuff is rarely the issue I imagine. The thing I came to realize is that AI has little to no ability to semantically parse distributed bare-metal source code. It can't reason like a human and infer based on prior knowledge. It just looks for the most similar thing in its training data and outputs the training data context.
>>109568093Imagine making a wojak comic in 2026.
>>109568093the incels really didn't like this one did they
>>109573057>>109573016LLMs are just lossy compression algorithms that use weighted graphs as their storage data structure. Proximity queries may yield quasi-intelligent replies, but unless novel training data is supplied that does not fit previously compressed patterns, no new meaning can be generated.
>>109573077yup, that pretty much sums it uptheres just thought patterns that 404 on an llm bc in the end its just a bunch of statsone that was salient to me was when i ran async ideas through itit just went>uuuh thats hard doe, maybe you should find another solution...theres no proper reasoning in all this.however they perform admirably well when asked to follow/regurgitate a constellation of terms that are correlated togetherin fact, ive "configured" mine to "look" for terms that are absent from a prompt, but which relate to the discussion, turning the llm into a tutor of sortsim self taught and so i have holes in my knowledge. its pretty handy to have an llm do a second pass and pull up the knowledge you seem to be lacking, unprompted. if you dont know something, its reasonable that you wont know that you dont know it kinda deal- another advantage of not de-humanizing your llms. but it still boils down to the margin of fuzziness one allows their llm in the output
>>109573132surei guess thats the non-retard way of saying what i mentionned here >>109573134
>>109573029Let's say your factory makes products that sell for x50 what it takes to produce and distribute them, and you see that and make the somewhat rational decision to borrow as much money as you possibly can to build another dozen factories before someone else does. Your business is profitable; your company, at the moment, is not. It may well be that profit margins disappear with 12 or 100 factories flooding the market (you have competitors) and you'll go bankrupt, or maybe you'll find you can in fact have 100 factories churning out products for x40 or x80 profit, in which case you're now fabulously rich.But the less ambitious companies that stick to just running one or two such factories and reap the profits without betting their whole existence on expansion are already comfortably profitable.
>>109573057>because youre the one defining what intelligence even means in its contextNot me, but you who used the phrase 'sai', which I assume stands for "Superintelligent AI" which you were too lazy to type.>because youre not gonna give it access to everything if can be actually dangerousYeah I probably wouldn't, but what about Joe? How is this going to be enforced? When it comes to nuclear reactors there's a non-zero chance of a leak, but we should use them anyway because per-capita fewer people die than through air pollution emitted by coal-fired plants. When a disaster does occur, it can only kill a few thousand people at most. With a hypothetical Superintelligent AI the stakes are much higher, with the fate of the entire human race on the line. Corporations have an incentive to squeeze out more profit, and both America and China have an incentive to push the limit ever further.

>>109572328Oh yes I did. I'm not a vibecoder. Keep seething
>>109573132It's true LLMs don't resemble human intelligence well. The transformer architecture is structured differently than a mammal's brain, but still exhibits some form of intelligence because it uses neural networks. The biggest difference might be that, where in transformers there is a fixed series of layers and the "signal" must pass through each one consecutively, but our brain has some longer neurons which allows different regions to communicate with each other.Simple rules can generate complex systems at a large enough scale. A good lecture on that subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_ZuWbX-CyEI'm not going to tell you where to skip to because I want you to watch the full video. It will change the way you view the world.The structure of a human's brain is not something unique to us. The only fundamental difference between a monkey's brain and a human's is the size. All that's needed to attain human level intelligence and beyond is to take some simple rules and scale it up.
>>109570756and they all have the same what I call "chatgpt-yellow" tint for some reason

holy shit you dumb fucks don't know how life and intelligence workslook at bacteria, it's pure reactionary, like robots, in a constant state of balancing the external with the internal until perfection a.k.a. deaththe only reason we have thoughts, we have knowledge, we have consciousness is because there are enough internal and external reactions between our neurons in a specific way that permits consciousness to exist, which is all caused by the constant state of balancing of chemicals within our neurons and those that reach the synapses, the latter working in a binary-analog way where the presence of said chemicals cause a reaction, but the intensity causes longer lasting or shorter lasting reactionsAI will be able to have a consciousness only when the internal-external dynamics will permit it to think beyond pure regurgitation and reaction like it currently doesone can argue that humans regurgitate everything, alike robots, but the difference is that we, as humans, go through way more factors than pure presence of electricity and external inputs, we depend on food, on water, on thermals, on a lot of factors that shapes and defines how we may think in the moment; a robot will not be able to do that without appropriate code that will moan and complain about the presence of pressure at position X, which result in a reactionoverall takeaway: we functions as an ultra complex mixture of endless reactions directed towards a perfect state, which is death, and our neural architecture permits consciousness, not just pure thinking, feeling, memorizing and logically react to our surrounding worldthat consciousness is the most difficult thing to figure out because we are still attempting to understand what exactly causes consciousnessmy personal thesis is that consciousness is basically what Intel ME or AMD PSP should be - something that gives tasks left and right - but I am not sure as I haven't tried to make myself a robot girlfriend, I prefer to entertain Mr. GOD

>>109573735>a lack of evolutionnal pressure really did a number on humanity, didnt it?YES. >your moms should have gatekept you from life through the means of a post birth abortionHowever the AI shill is a bot.you are talking to a retarded bot.This is what you can find in stack overflow: >>109573994
AI is a useful tool but you shouldn't rely on it, you should know enough not to make bad decisions with it, but you should use it to speed up your learning or workspeed. Any other take is just retarded seething or being lazy.
>>109574008AI is not a tool it is retardation.If you are to retarded to type in >how to copy files in bashInto the search bar and read>cp -r ./SourceFolder ./DestFolderThen you are to retarded to ask chatGPT.AI is cancer from start to finish. I once asked chatGPT how to change the language in windows using a .REG file and I did have it literally hallucinate that this is not possible.And this was the moment when AI proved itself to be useless. Because using the win registry with .REG files is basically some black wizardry that no one knows where the info comes from.
>>109573357I'm just a retard but intuitively that point is a singularity only in the sense that the necessary compute to achieve that point grows asymptotically
>>109573451>le emergent behaviour memeyeah I know that's a thing>All that's needed to attain human level intelligence and beyond is to take some simple rules and scale it uperm didya kno the Neanderthals had bigger brains than humans and nonetheless we were smarter?I'm sorry but if you cannot see how vastly inferior and rigid AIs are in their cognitive model compared to humans I am left to conclude that you are either A) retarded, B) have little to no human interactionor both
>>109573558fuck yeah I wanna gatekeep. This shit is my most beloved hobby and favourite activity in the world. Nobody bats an eye when chess players agree that if the clock runs out, you have lost. Yet as a programmer I'm somehow morally obliged to let anyone who so chooses yammer on about muh prompt engineering and agent swarms, whereas I know that if I asked them how a syscall works they couldn't give me a concise answer - and most importantly they don't even CARE or feign any interest in that?Absolutely not, they should try their little opportunistic conman game with someone else. I have watched enough technological enshittification to not keep my mouth shut anymore.
>>109574045>>109574099Adapt or die, whiners. The future is now.
>>109574155>the futureyeah, sure 2mw etc
>>109573381AI psychosis status: terminal
Bye bye LUDDITES, it's over!
>>109574232>notice me senpaii did. and now i choose to ignore you, bc youre a nocoder
>>109574155I adapt by seeking like-minded people. Some BSDs and alternative software forges are keeping the old ways alive, mailing lists, praising good documentation, vetting code and dependencies, building small, interoperable systems - just because they care and like what they do.I have no financial incentive and I'm not seeking for attention, I just want to build good, open software as part of a like-minded community. If anything, AI has tightened the community. Fuck Torvalds and his corpo-cum-filled asshole kernel.
>>109574307Your mistake is that you think anyone gives a fuck about you.
>>109574765I do give a fuck.>>109574307keep on, anon.
>>109570756This is the great artist replacement promptrannies applauded.
>>109568093>I’m glad AI is here to make gatekeepers irrelevant.AI is just regurgitating shit it found on internet, if no one has solved the issue, it's basically useless otherwise.
