Auschwiiiiitz

Sorry I sneezed

This "there is a threat" talk is going too far, unrelated to that i find curious how the electoral processes are being attack recently.

On: xAI joins SpaceX

[motbus3]

call me crazy but if this isn't related to the AI stuff in military stuff nothing is. Anyone who believes spacex not that is naive

On: Sam Altman felt "useless" next to Codex

[motbus3]

I have the impression anything amazes him.

By the way, is the thing about him and his sister a real thing?

[rcbdev → motbus3]

The allegations and lawsuit are real, yes.

On: Anki ownership transferred to AnkiHub

[motbus3]

No one is appreciating cheap working solution from good folks and prefer to accept the free spy-me stuff going around.

I see lots of people also moving stuff with AI that will clearly be biased and force products down your throat. This might be the end of the internet as we know, but the next thing, although sometimes looks exciting, will be controlled by faceless greedy monsters.

I guess the fact that we all didn't prioritise those small businesses is getting somewhere

On: The Codex App

[motbus3]

I will say that doing small modifications or asking a bunch of stuff fills the context the same in my observations. It depends on your codebase and the rest of stuff you use (sub agents, skills, etc)

I was once minimising the changes and trying to take the max of it. I did an uncountable numbers of tests and and variations. Didn't really matter much if I told it to do it all or change one line. I feel Claude code tries to fill the context as fast as possible anyway

I am not sure how worth Claude is right now. I still prefer that rather than codex, but I am starting to feel that's just a bias

I don’t think it’s bias: I have no love for any of these tools, but in every evaluation we’ve done at work, Opus 4.5 continually comes out ahead in real world performance

Codex and Gemini are both good, but slower and less “smart” when it comes to our code base

Needs to be renamed :P

just wait tomorrow's name, or the day after tomorrow's...

On: UK Government’s ‘AI Skills Hub’ was delivered by PwC for £4.1M

[motbus3]

It would be great to see the cost breakdown. 4m might seem a lot or not dependending on what was delivered

On: Will AIs take all our jobs and end human history, or not? (2023)

[motbus3]

Same, and I ain't in any of those locations.

The thing is that there will be less work, but that certainly is not looking like universal income. It is more like rich people will get rid of those who they don't need with some sort of "let's kill parasites" or "cutting weed" because the world is in danger of poor people destroying it. In certain ways, they are already trying to tell that to people so nobody notices that no single person should have a trillion or even a billion of money

[tim333 → motbus3]

If you look at real world examples of machines replacing jobs like in the industrial revolution it didn't really go like that. The rich didn't monopolise everything because competition reduced the profits and the works moved on to other jobs like the ones we do today.

The "let's kill parasites" stuff has arisen more in land grabs to clear the indigenous people, not due to tech.

If he was a middle manager it wasn't him doing the work anyway
