nice take on this

If you call and I don’t pick up, leave a voicemail. If you don’t leave a voicemail, I assume it wasn’t important
this a thousand times. IDK when people decided to not use the voicemail anymore.
But to be honest I make it more radical and not even return all calls. because. priority 1 - call, not answered but with a voicemail
priority 2 - unanswered call but a message sent afterwards.
priority 3 - message only.
an unanswered call on my side and no further information is for me simply to forget about it.
it only enabled its operators access to encrypted communications...
what the heck? isnt this much worse than simple microphone access?
well. indeed the devil's in the detail.
But going with your story. Yes, you are right in general. But the human input is already there.
But you have to have human-made material to train the classifier, and if the classifier doesn’t improve, then the generator never does either.
AI can already understand what stripes are, and can draw the connection that a zebra is a horse without stripes. Therefore the human input is already given. Brute force learning will do the rest. Simply because time is irrelevant and computations occur at a much faster rate.
Therefore in the future I believe that AI will enhance itself. Because of the input it already got, which is sufficient to hone its skills.
While I know for now we are just talking about LLMs as blackboxes which are repetitive in generating output (no creativity). But the 2nd grader also has many skills which are sufficient to enlarge its knowledge. Not requiring everything taught by a human. in this sense.
I simply doubt this:
LLMs will get progressively less useful
Where will it get data about new programming languages or solutions to problems in new software?
On the other hand you are right. AI will not understand abstractions of something beyond its realm. But this does not mean it wont expedite in stuff that it can draw conclusions from.
And even in the case of new programming languages, I think a trained model will pick up the logic of the code - basically making use of its already learned pattern recognition skills. And probably at a faster pace than a human can understand a new programming language.
Well. I doubt that very much. Take as an analogy the success of the chess AI which was left training itself - compared to being trained...
Programmers as it turns out are very ‘eh, the code should explain itself to anyone with enough brains to look at it’ type of people
I cannot say how much I hate this.
even worse for old code where proper variable naming and underscores were forbidden. Impossible to get into someone else's head.
Puzzling Stack Exchange
this simply an aggregator?
People also blame ai, but if people are going to ai to ask the common already answered questions then… good!
exactly!
While I am indeed worried about the "wasted" energy (thats a whole other topic), thats pretty much why AI is good for.
Isn't more like the main driver for our prospering civilization?
Some might say that the shift in desiring less is the downward path for the over-saturated humanity.
But lets not get too deep here.
I could not comprehend what you were up to telling us.
But the summary is:
The key essence of this post is a deeply disillusioned and angry critique of modern American society, government, and technology. The author expresses a sense of frustration with the perceived emptiness, manipulation, and decay of U.S. institutions—seeing democracy as a facade, tech innovation as overhyped and hollow, and the government as ineffective. They convey a desire for systemic collapse or radical upheaval (accelerationism), suggesting that elites will soon resort to authoritarianism to maintain control. There’s also an undercurrent of socio-political pessimism, nihilism, and rejection of both corporate and state power—coupled with a belief that the current system is unsustainable and nearing a breaking point.

appearently when people call they do no like to text. because they have no hands free or whatever
so voicemail is the better option than simply be pissed because i never called back.
