Ah finally, we are here. The diminishing return is here. The trillion dollar bet is finally showing its first cards, and its flopping hard.

We dont even have to wait, LLM bullshittery is dead in less than 10 papers away lol

“god i hate this slop, i wish it could stop!”, said the president of the slop factory

Proprietary projects and clean room implementation is often done without having the source code first though, and a clean room implementation assumes its actually clean. meanwhile, most of llms nowadays cant be verifiably do clean room because the source code is probably there too.

When Linus does clean room to make Linux, does he have access to the source code, or does he need to figure out things by himself and only match the interface later on?

I’m sure both of us aren’t good enough to solve this billion dollar problem, but saying its not a problem to steal someone’s work, disregarding their license (even MIT requires attributions!), and releasing their mangled copy as a new product, is dystopian.

The problem isnt the fact snippets exist in a codebase. The problem is, the entire fucking website is scraped clean of every codebase that has ever existed without paying a dime to their owner, notifying of their usage, and being transparent of their datasets.

How can it be verifiably responsible if their activity is handwaved under the guise of “business secret”? Its literally people using other peoples work without fair compensation, which means stealing, which means someone has to pay.

how about making an effort in the first place? to at least make an effort to list all repository thats being used as training data.

Responsible use of llms can’t be achieved. Can you verify that all of your training data are square with its creators? If not, how is that responsible?

Can they ramp up their distribution for south east asia? There’s just too many slop hardware in Indonesia, too many AI, too little rightly built laptops. Can’t believe I said this, but the only sane buy for new laptops are old gens thinkpads and apple devices.

I don’t even like using macs, but it’s true, their build quality is better than your run of the mill asus/acer (the predominant brand here) laptops.

how about FILTERING if it has AI content in it? Like, I don’t want porn/risque content on my search, means they have the mean to tag videos and filter it.

How about filtering slop too?
