I think this is the way. Human-machine co-design worked great for me so far. Hell, even the test writing alone is great, because I can have more confidence in my code. And test writing was mostly drudgery. On the other hand, you _must_ have a good mental model of the thing in your head else this will not work. And it's much easier to believe you have it and not really have it if you don't engage with the codebase.

Bingo! Nobody wants to build actual stuff. They all want to be intermediaries.

High... Ugh, trust... In the... LLM? Hah!

in the employees...

The effort.

And the cost, and the parents.

The common rules are so because we agree on them. On principle, in this case, we do not agree what the rule should be here and it's in a way unprecedented. We'll soon converge to a societal agreement. I hope society abstaining itself from tools will not be the answer.

And the process by which we agree is lawmaking.

Ok, so I use the LLM. I use the tool. Can I now apply the exemption to me?

Are you telling me that I can use the thing, but I can't use it if I process it through an LLM? It get slippery, fast.

What's special about LLMs in your argument? When I was an edgy teenager in the 90s, I'd argue that it's not piracy because the DivX representation of the movie isn't bit-for-bit identical to the Hollywood master or whatever. If your reasoning works for LLMs as the tools, surely it also works for video compression.

No, that's how copyright normally works.

If I write a story, I can put it online. That doesn't mean it's ok to take that story and publish it in an anthology.

This is the answer. People don't like having their livelihood threatened so they kick the thing that threatens it.

It's a hit piece and healivy editorialized to give facts a bend. I end up disliking these kinds of articles since they always want to sell an angle.

I heavily dislike Thiel but this is not how reporting should look like.

In my experience, they all do this with dathasheets. Even if they read the actual datasheet, they misunderstand them gravely. I can't relie on them to do unusual setups or chaining stuff properly. It's true I did these attempts a couple of months ago, maybe they're better now.

Take the approach Geohot is suggesting. Take a shipping container, make a standard layout, cooling and compute load. Find a cheap source of electricity.. Place it and have compute.

Surely if it was that easy it'd be done?

It has been done... We used to get our POP gear built out from Dell (?) in shipping containers - pre-racked, wired, and cooled - just add network/power feeds. We'd have them dropped places we needed more capacity but there wasn't space available in the DC.

Interesting thanks for sharing
