a terrible place for both information and security

And in fact barring the inevitable fuckups AI probably can eventual handle a lot of interpretation currently carried out by human civil servants.

But honestly I would have thought that all of this is obvious, and that I shouldn’t really have to articulate it.

you keep making claims about what LLMs are capable of that don’t match with any known reality outside of OpenAI and friends’ marketing, dodging anyone who asks you to explain, and acting like a bit of a shit about it. I don’t think we need your posts.

good, use your excel spreadsheet and not a tool that fucking sucks at it

why do you think hallucinating autocomplete can make rules-based decisions reliably

AI analyses it, decides if applicant is entitled to benefits.

why do you think this is simple

and of course, not a single citation for the intro paragraph, which has some real bangers like:

This process involves self-assessment and internal deliberation, aiming to enhance reasoning accuracy, minimize errors (like hallucinations), and increase interpretability. Reflection is a form of "test-time compute," where additional computational resources are used during inference.

because LLMs don’t do self-assessment or internal deliberation, nothing can stop these fucking things from hallucinating, and the only articles I can find for “test-time compute” are blog posts from all the usual suspects that read like ads and some arXiv post apparently too shitty to use as a citation

oh yeah, I’m waiting for David to wake up so he can read the words

the trivial ‘homework’ of starting the rule violation procedure

and promptly explode, cause fielding deletion requests from people like our guests who don’t understand wikipedia’s rules but assume they’re, ah, trivial, is probably a fair-sized chunk of his workload

this would explain so much about the self-declared 10x programmers I’ve met

there’s something fucking hilarious about you and your friend coming here to lecture us about how Wikipedia works, but explaining the joke to you is also going to be tedious as shit and I don’t have any vegan nacho fries or junior mints to improve my mood

also lol @

Vibe coding, sometimes spelled vibecoding

cause I love the kayfabe linguistic drift for a term that’s not even a month old that’s probably seen more use in posts making fun of the original tweet than any of the shit the Wikipedia article says

[–] self@awful.systems 15 points 1 month ago (3 children)

did you know: you too can make your dreams come true with Vibe Coding (tm) thanks to this article’s sponsors:

Replit Agent, Cursor Composer, Pythagora, Bolt, Lovable, and Cline

and other shameful assholes with cash to burn trying to astroturf a term from a month old Twitter brainfart into relevance

[–] self@awful.systems 15 points 1 month ago (13 children)

no thx, nobody came here for you to assign them tedious homework

[–] self@awful.systems 7 points 1 month ago

fuck yeah! it’s a very solid start, and I appreciate the (is that clickbaity enough) in the thumbnail
