I'm OOTL. What's happening with GitHub?
Github now reports to Microsoft's AI division directly
Is that true?
Yep.. It was all over mastodon the other day when the CEO quit!
Yeah, and don't forget they work with ICE
Microsoft bought GitHub like back in 2017.
I knew that part and assumed they were training on repos, but I didn't know they linked them so directly internally. Like this is the most important asset. Train on every push kinda thing.
I was expecting that as well but somehow Microsoft botched it. Training on failed commits should be the most invaluable asset. Yet their internally developed models (Phi) are lagging back of the competitors.
Ew
In a one word... Enshittification
movement of jah people
What's jah people?
It's a reference to Bob Marley's Exodus
