The Western NATO doctrine has proven ineffective in modern conditions - this is one of the reasons for Ukraine's failure on the battlefield.

  • The "Air Land Battle" concept developed for the Cold War does not work against an enemy that has artillery with a range of 70 km and drones flying deep into the rear.
  • Ukraine tried to act according to NATO regulations - and abandoned them after heavy losses during 2023 offensive
  • During recent exercises in the Baltics, the French military cleared trenches "head-on", with small arms - w/o the use of drones.
  • At the same time, Russia uses drones at all levels - from recon to pinpoint target designation.
  • The Russian army quickly adapts to new conditions and relied on technology.
  • NATO countries are stuck in the past era and are not capable of rapid adaptation.
  • Russia is outplaying them both in the tactical and technologically, which calls into question the combat capability of the entire “alliance of the willing”

Nothing fundamentally new here, just very good range.

I'm sorry, I should not assume that this sort of code does not require a significant cognitive effort to write from some people.

Just read your own comments in this very thread.

When you definitely understand what straw manning is.

Show me an actual constructive argument by the AI bad crowd in this thread that doesn't fit that description.

[–] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 4 weeks ago (6 children)

It's boilerplate because it's just lines of code that are spelling out a repetitive pattern that you end up having to mindlessly write over and over. The fact that you continue to refuse to acknowledge this blows my mind to be honest.

My definition of trolling is you looking at over 40 lines of boilerplate and asking where is the boilerplate.

It's not, that's just a straw man you're building here.

I'm not just referring to you specifically here. I'm pointing out the general tone of people who come into these threads complaining about AI. It's practically never constructive, and it's always the same set of talking points that have been addressed many times here. It's worth noting the tone of your original comment though:

Yogthos is really relentless with all these AI posts. You’re not fighting for the poor defenseless AI technologies against the tyrannical masses with these posts.

You attack me for not editing the original title of the post claiming I was being antagonistic, yet you very clearly made a snide personal attack in your first comment. Then you pretend like you're the paragon of civility and I'm being unreasonable. Maybe get off your high horse, and reflect on the way you engage with people?

I didn't give the headline any thought, and it seems you're projecting an intention to antagonize onto it. My sole aim was to share the piece because of its interesting content.

I agree that it's always best when conversations can proceed constructively and without unintended antagonism. However, it's also true that those who are critical of LLMs have made similar replies to posts with titles that couldn't possibly be considered antagonistic.

To sum it up, let's "be the change we wish to see." If people make polite and constructive comments, we can have civil discussions. If people engage in sealioning or leave snarky comments, that will inevitably set a different tone for the discussion.

At the end of the day, if people aren't interested in a particular topic, they can simply choose not to comment, rather than actively trying to antagonize others and then claiming victimhood.

The title of the post is literally the title of the article. I didn't edit it in any way, and the fact that you're now blaming me for it is frankly incredible.
