The scene is also written by humans for humans, with a human actor pretending to be a sentient machine. It was written at a time when there were actual real humans who fiercely believe other actual real humans should not have the same rights.

To then take that scene and say "wow so relevant for LLMs" and ignore all the context it was made in (yes, please don't miss the irony of the importance of context) is frankly embarrassing.

Very bank. Such centralized. Wow.

> The AI models arent going away

If they're never going to be updated again (because, according to the labs themselves, training and updating them is the part that loses money), then how soon will the next "do it for my grandma" be discovered? And how useful will the models really be if every public document, and I imagine a decent number of open source libraries, will inevitably have that magic phrase embedded somewhere. php2shell was bad and that was patchable.

And don't forget that for the entire existence and our entire experience of LLM-based AI is based on the LLMs being constantly updated and refreshed. And it is widely accepted (and even confirmed by the labs themselves) that updating the models is undeniably unsustainable.

So, I'd love to imagine what the future looks like once we're stuck with a model (no matter how capable) that can never be updated ever again. What future versions of "do it for my grandma" can never be patched out?

If AI changes how software is built by _that_ much, then there's no reason to believe that AI won't change how software is consumed by an equal or greater amount.

When StackOverflow tells question askers that their questions are off topic, everyone loses their minds and cheer that StackOverflow is now dead.

But when an algorithm does it, they go "wow such future"

It doesn't really make sense huh. If they're so resource constrained and tokens are so precious, then prices should go up regardless of how much optimization has been done. You're either struggling to meet demand or egregiously over-provisioned. Which is it?

The people running AI companies are famous for being risk averse

$2T valuation good for a start

Best I can do is Rust rewrites take it or leave it

Sadly their more spicy policies are optional if asked to form a coalition.

Tulips can be used to decorate a home, or make an important person in your life feel desired.

It's like we took the worst behavior of our colleagues, and went and said "yes, let's automate _that_ part" and patted ourselves on the back.

What are we if not software engineers

Why even have private WHOIS at that point then? Just scrap it altogether.
