Can you ensure that the llm reviewing the code will not hallucinate and, more importantly, will not fall to some prompt injection that can be within the code?

Well well well, if it isn’t the effect everyone with a working brain predicted would happen by loosening up to AI.

It’s also somewhat ironic that the “solution” to the bazaar is to become more like a cathedral - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cathedral_and_the_Bazaar

There are thousands of professional football teams that are behind the UEFA top 10, why do they even bother?

Huh, TIL. Off the rabbit hole of compiler (non)determinism I go

What even is appropriate use of AI?

Industrial scale misinformation and scamming.

Also, sometimes the responsibility falls onto the tool maker. Remember Crowdstrike? That software update that caused widespread outages in Windows computers used by many organizations, including in airports? It wasn’t any user’s fault, surprisingly it wasn’t even Microslop’s fault, it was Crowdstrike’s fault alone.

Harder for the people who don’t want backdoors or critical security bugs approved, you mean

I know, but even regarding bug catching, there have been a LOT of bogus bug reports “discovered by AI” that could not be replicated in any way, shape or form. Granted, I’ve seen one or two articles saying that AI helped find real software bugs, but what’s the ratio there, 1:500 for useful/useless AI bug reports?

then people can turn to the devs and Linus and say “I told you so.”

I bet his response will be an email with a dozen variations of “fuck you for insinuating that I have any responsibility, I didn’t approve that specific commit, it’s all <approver>'s fault who is a fucking imbecile”

People using AI push a lot more code in a shorter amount of time. That deluge makes it much more likely for bad code, intentional or not, to slip by.

“Just leave it to a few trusted devs”

Some bad actors can play the long game. The XZ Utils backdoor is a very recent example of a contributor trying to abuse a backdoor he put there himself, after 2 years of posing as a helpful person.

“Let AI review it”

If humans are prone to mistakes, why would anyone leave a probabilistic program that is known to make bad decisions at random and that has, on more than one occasion, “cheated” to pass quality tests, deleted files it shouldn’t and is still suceptible to prompt attacks, review it?

I understand the sentiment of “if the AI generated code is good, allow it”, but the “productivity” gains in writing code means that, sooner or later, the person using the AI will care less and less about reading and preemptively catching possible errors because there’ll be so many alterations that he either has to spend a month reading, or just skim over and accept.

Given Torvalds’ attitude towards AI, it’s not surprising.

“They’ve gotten good enough to find bugs because LLMs, AI, are just pattern matchers and code is nothing but patterns in a specific format.”

True, but let’s not forget that 2 + 2 = 4 can be achieved through a million different patterns^[1], so just because AI can find a working pattern doesn’t make it good

Linus comparing AI to text editors and fucking compilers shows how high on his own farts he is. Given the same input, a compiler will always produce the same output, down to the last bit. The same cannot be said about AI - throw the same version of claude code with the same prompt on the same computer file and it will produce different results, maybe with a “similar enough” end result, but not identical.

AI is not a tool, it’s a million monkeys with keyboards that cannot be held accountable for their output.

Good moderation also gets rid of spam bots

I did not ask for a link, I asked for a specific change that happened to justify that 403

Any specific change since this version of mine to justify the “best experience”?

Seriously? Librewolf 148.0-1

By going out and asking around. The more informal looking a place looks like, the more likely they are to do informal hiring for a quick buck for a single day. Chances of not finding any work are significant, tho

What a weird question. If you wanna do gigs from those slaver apps, it might be worth keeping a separate cell phone just for that.

Other than that, see what kind of work is available around your place.

Is it AI drift because it’s dangerous driving the economy into a hole?

First, PS5s need to get cheap, which they still aren’t.

I suppose the general understanding thus far is similar to how much copyright a boss is entitled to the intellectual work of his underlings? I mean, that hypothetical artist is actually controlling the tool, vibe coders aren’t controlling anything.

I remember seeing something similar with Bezos’ wealth, back when it was “only” ~200 billion.
