RMS has laughed off claims that AI will ever replace SWE. He says that language models like don’t “know” anything and just generate text, so he argues that calling it intelligence (or “AI”) is misleading. RMS says it is retarded if anyone seriously thinks AI will replace SWE. https://m.slashdot.org/story/451772
>>542482946You're telling me an irrelevant end hopelessly out of touch tech personality has a hopelessly out touch take on AI?
>>542482946Shouldn't he be busy eating his toe fungus?
>>542482946Doing 80% of the work replaces 80% of the programmers.
>>542485652Nope, doing 80% of the work replaces 20% of programmers because of the Pareto principle
>>542482946As an obvious long-committed commie, he's probably a believer in Bender's "stochastic parrot" when LLMs, just like humans, *can* be stochastic parrots but can be more than that. He also probably consumes anti-AI Zitron videos every day
>>542482946AI is just a marketing term used to part retards from their money. AGI will soon replace it as a term for software being brute forced to fool people into thinking it is anything more than standard computing. We are going to need a term to describe actual AI though, after AI and AGI have been whored out.
im not gonna disagree with the guy but just sayin you know that fucker smells like shit
>>54248565280% of what, volume ?It's like any other job. if the foundation is built wrong you'll have to redo it.whatever... im argueing with a retard.
>>542488415It's a teleological problem. While philosophy is still out to lunch on the nature of meaning, it's fairly obvious what meaning isn't: the output of matrix multiplications over a very large body of weights.
>>542482946AI can only try to replicate code that a human has already written. Very stupid engineers are currently training their replacements. There will always be a place for extraordinary programmers like RMS but all those web devs that comprise the bulk of professional coders will be made redundant. My concern is that most of the software we rely on will be completely unmaintainable by humans and essentially nobody will know how it works. That's good news for AI jews and bad news for the rest of us. Enjoy your relatively cheap agents while you can because the benefit of you using it, the fact that it's learning how to program by you using it, will sunset pretty soon and then they are getting locked away behind massively expensive licenses accessible only to wealthy corporations. You will get a toy to play with, the tools will be for the professionals.
>>542482946He's past his prime. Thanks for all though.
>>542490005The new term after that is ASI artificial super intelligence but once that is created you will see such sights that you will no longer need eyes to see
