Cool. I’ll get back to you with a DM after the holidays. I’m not going to devote a week to proving a random internet stranger wrong, but I’ll at least give you a few hours.

If they believe, then they become “mind controlled”, “double agents”, “traitors”, etc to other flat earthers.

So you acknowledge it exists? In that case is it “colonialism” to give land back to the inhabitants who were there when the current colonizers/occupiers came in?

inb4 muh CaAnnAnniTEs Yeah, we get it. There were people before even the Israelis. I will be in favor of giving them a home when they show up. I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for that though.

It’s a good thing we didn’t colonize all of the Middle East to replace traditional regional values such as slavery, sexism, “women can’t be raped”, child brides, etc. Can’t go imposing “Western Values” or we’d be the real assholes.

Okay Tankie.

if you feel the need to insult everyone who disagrees with you, that seems like a better indication of your ability to communicate than mine

I have spent most of my professional career trying to get engineers to unionize and fight for better wages/benefits. The vast majority are apathetic and passive. Now we have a brand new technology that won’t make the profession obsolete, but will make the need for their labor obsolete. I’m personally in a safe spot. I have the portfolio and network to ensure I will have opportunities to work no matter what. But how many engineers simply do not have that? MBAs will raze this profession to the ground for short-term profits. They’ll destroy every pipeline that takes in entry-level engineers and gives them a chance to grow.

As far as I know, you’re just another engineer who doesn’t see what’s coming down the road. Pleasant speech hasn’t worked to get people to wake up over the past two years, and I’m running out of patience like you’re all running out of time.

since it is likely similar to other existing frameworks

And that’s the problem. You claim to be in ML research, and you don’t even know what your own tools and field are capable of. I haven’t just made frameworks that are “copies” of a framework but in another language, or a combination of existing frameworks. GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 are capable of novel outputs when given sufficient guidance. I’ve gotten it to fill in architecture gaps and implement complex, recursive functions. I don’t believe for a second that it’s “self aware”. But it’s far more capable than even you realize.

I’m willing to bet that if I were in your shoes I could get at least some usable output from it for your use case.

You could not possibly be more wrong.

I’m not going to dox myself by giving proof, but I have used it to create novel, complex frameworks from scratch. Sure, it starts with my idea and guidance. But nearly 100% of the code and documentation is AI generated. Nobody has been able to tell the difference when I show it to them. We’re talking engineers who became leads years ago.

If that’s you’re experience, then it speaks volumes about your ability to communicate. If you can lead a team and communicate requirements, then you can use AI.

I’ve authored multiple FOSS libraries and have deployed numerous applications to production lmfao

Did you become a “dev” by going to a bootcamp and learning HTML and JS?

I completely disagree with the premise that AI is overrated. It’s fucking underrated.

Sure, if you just blindly put input into ChatGPT and use the output it’s not that useful. It’s a tool. You need to know how to use a tool to get the most use out of it. If you know how to use it properly, then it’s fucking amazing. Anyone claiming that AI can just magically work and do anything is a fraud.

The truth is that anyone who can’t get practical use of it is probably ass at communicating with people. Pretend it’s another engineer who’s junior to you and your passing work off to them. If you can’t do that, then you probably shouldn’t ever progress beyond mid-level in your career.

Sounds like you don’t know how to use AI to work faster and are just jealous.

soo coo

As best I know, the IDF has roughly 3 million members. That may seem like a lot at first, but think about how many of those are in support roles. That’s not 3 million infantry dipshit. They do not actually have more “troops” than Russia has sent to Ukraine.

Also, Russia is not exactly the comparison you want to be using to argue that Israel has sufficient resources lmfao

Fucking idiot.

Doesn’t sound like it from the shit you posted below that literally just says you used it lol

Wait… Do you think that people can’t work in a field if they use their own products to make sure they’re working?

I’m not going to dox myself by linking to what I’ve done. It’s just sad that you’re yet another person (probably a greybeard) who thinks they know everything but they’re completely unprepared for the future.

And if you can’t figure out how to check over 200K lines of properly formatted and documented code, then you’re a shit engineer.

Sure it’s great for augmenting us but it’s not replacing us.

What the fuck do you think “augmenting” means to bloodsucking MBAs? If one mid-level engineer can do the work of five, then they can scale a team of ten down to two. There are many reasons not to do that no matter how good AI is (i.e. bus factor). But since when has that stopped management from making dumbass decision?

Not going to waste anymore time on you. Hope you have a good retirement plan in place. You’re going to need it.

My understanding of the situation is that they do not have the manpower to do all of the following at the same time:

• Prevent incursions on other borders from Hezbollah, ISIL, and other Iranian proxies
• Cordon off sections of Gaza one at a time
• Sweep every cordoned off building, block, etc for Hamas
• Be ready to repel an actual invasion by Hezbollah, Iran, etc

If say Hamas was in an Israeli hospital…

Hamas is the elected government of Palestine. I think a better analogy for what you’re going for would be something like “if Israel was launching rockets indiscriminately at Palestine from an Israeli hospital, would the government of Palestine be justified in attacking the hospital?” My answer to that would be YES. There’s a reason why every civilized nation in the world has agreed to this as part of the “rules of war”. If you allow people to use civilians as human shields, then it becomes an effective tactic and more groups will do it.

Let me know when you have a better solution than "let terrorists do whatever the fuck they want.

Guess what? I work in this field too.

now one person can do what 20 did in the past with a computer

How can you say this but completely miss the fucking point?

We do not have fast enough anything (storage/ram/CPU) to do what you think it can When quantum computing actually takes off then you can start worrying

Oh, that’s how you can say it. You clearly don’t work in this field if that’s what you think the bottleneck is right now.

I’ve personally used AI to generate more than 200K lines of production code this year alone. One senior engineer today can do the work of dozens with this. We are going to go from labor shortages to labor surpluses.
