This is very interesting. I know that coding string-related stuff with C/C++ can be incredibly tedious and error prone (even hard security-wise). But all the stuff in the web-related stacks/libraries in other languages, is either already somehow being transcompiled to C to execute, or could be relatively easily ported/reused by directing an LLM/agent to do it
Do you think that could work to make C/C++ better at this? What things would you import/copy from elsewhere?
This is amazing, love it! Qwenputer is very cool too
I made a classifier play doom[0]. But you turned the whole network into Doom! Amazing
HN uses automatic classifiers. They seem pretty effective. At the same time, I think it's a loosing battle. I'd rather HN either flag for others to ignore/filter/review if they want to, and/or allow people to self-report (ala TikTok)
Eg. I wouldn't mind if a comment on HN was like:
Hey everyone, I coded this little thing:
<ai-generated> some code </ai-generated>
Then users can choose if they want to see posts with AI-generated stuff or not, or something else...
Of course there are always going to be some people trying to game the system. But what are we optimizing for? (a lot of times the 95% unnecessarily suffers because of the mitigation efforts to prevent the other 5% from abuse)
Or the cli version if preferable: https://nicobrenner.github.io/lossy-git/
Does it already exist?
I'm all up for using the better/simpler task for the job. That's been a thing lately also with the Jev/decision models hype, most of those things can either already be done by a pretrained classifier[0], or you can start with a bigger model and then train your smaller/adhoc one when you have some data (it doesn't even take much for most applications, you can get about 95% accuracy on email classification with 50-100 examples)
