LLM coding assistant solved grammar and translation for good.

But like us, they suck at language: social technology for a shared reality.

We can speak the same language but not share the same reality.

If we speak different languages, a translation would be short of making us share the same reality.

Grammar is a solved problem. Language however… 🤯

The whole point of a language is to reconcile the ambiguity inherent to the diversity of people experiences.

It is a social technology for creating a shared reality. Bridge of mind if you prefer.

The conventional wisdom is “Make something people want“

Not love.

If I am starving, give me food, gastronomy can wait.

Software bugs are ill-intentioned sentient haunting your computer.

Debugging is an act of exorcism.

The ideal user for those platforms business model is an isolated individual stuck in an algorithmic echo chamber fuelled by AI content.

There is virtually no reason for AI and social media platforms to emphasize human-to-human empathy.

It would be counterproductive.

Section 174 wasn’t written by AI !

The narrative goes like this:

App —> personal data —> AI —> App “personalization”

clickbait. Gemini didn’t « refuse ».

Gemini revised its opinion on its ability to beat Atari after learning that ChatGPT and Copilote have been beaten.

The article is trying way too hard to point it as the premise of a sentient being ala Skynet.

Ability to form intent is what differentiates us from AI which is at its core a delegated intent.

I was counting wrong until I got it 🤣

Coding is 80% debugging and 20% writing new bugs.

This actually validates it. LLM consume a large amount of resources to do the same thing as white collar.

Musk vient de comprendre ce que les tech milliardaires chinois ont découvert il y quelques années.

Face à un régime autoritaire, l’argent ne compte pas.
