Using public benchmarks and previously unreported data from within Anthropic, The Anthropic Institute is showing that AI is already accelerating the development of AI systems. To take just one example: today, Anthropic engineers on average ship 8x as much code per quarter as they did from 2021-2025.
Yup. Lines of code as a metric is pure bait for investors.
Many good answers here, but one also has to factor in that not all labour is socially necessary. With rising surplus value and extraction thereof, there follows also a rising inequality leading directly to more people becoming more or less servants of the capitalist class.
I would argue that labour of this type, whether that be managing contradictions arising from the capitalist mode of production or the placating of rich people's whims and needs, is not socially necessary. At the very least the product of this effort ranges from insignificant to detrimental for the proletariat.
Let me add in the following about my country, Norway, whose material conditions I know all to well: There is way too much wealth disparity and rising poverty, but this infographic does not reflect a material shortage of food, of which there is on the other hand an over-abundance of to the detriment of the global south. Recall that we produce food for a billion more people than what exists, yet a billion starve due to the global north's over-indulgence and waste.
The main reasons for the rise in death to malnutrition are eating disorders such as anorexia. This reflects a wholly different contradiction which we should focus on instead of misrepresenting material reality.
EDIT: After some reading it seems the rise is due to a change in the policy of journalling deaths. These are probably old people not eating enough because they are in the process of dying. The important bit with regards to where starvation actually causes death, and not merely corrolates with it, remains true.
So easy it should be illegal! I mean, how can we feel superior if we are not wasting huge amounts of time setting things up!?
You mean key based SSH authentication? Yes, but if you have done so and this is the only attack vector, I do not see the need for fail2ban.
Well... People fuck around and seems to have been doing so for a while...
To be honest I have been struggling to understand the relationship between the PRC and DPRK. I know geopolitics is difficult and that there has been a lot of mutual aid and cooperation between the two states, but I find it hard to explain stuff like this (from Wikipedia):
China condemned the 2006 North Korean nuclear test, as well as the subsequent nuclear tests in 2009, 2013, January 2016, September 2016 and 2017. China abstained during a 2017 United Nations Security Council vote about sanctions on North Korea, leading it to be approved.
I think the point is rather that it is distinguishable for someone knowledgeable on the subject, but not for someone is not. Thus making it harder to evolve from the latter to the former.
That music is absolutely beautiful!
At least tankies have interesting thoughts...
Thought we were calling it Amerikkka or the imperial core.
Many leftists in position of privilege should reevaluate the discrepancy between their idealism and their lack of support for material changes to the present material reality. Sure, it is easy to be part of the global north and believe in their own "freedom" (mostly the absence of violence afflicted to their socioeconomic class), while at the same time being part of exploiting and bombing the global south.
If we are going to be idealists, ask this: How many lives are lost every day due to the free exploitation of labour? How many people starve in a world of plenty or are outright killed in conflict over ownership of resources? Opposing material change is the idealist condoning murder of the innocent proletariat due to the aesthetics of action looking bad. This is the liberal perceived moral high ground.
