Linux lays down the law on AI-generated code, says yes to Copilot, no to AI slop, and humans take the fall for mistakes — after months of fierce debate, Torvalds and maintainers come to an agreement (www.tomshardware.com)

  1. Floating point math is deterministic.
  2. Systems don't have to be programmed with race conditions. That is not a fundamental aspect of an LLM, but a design decision.
  3. Systems don't have to be programmed to tie break with random methods. That is not a fundamental aspect of an LLM, but a design decision.

This is not hard stuff to understand, if you understand computing.

And yet, LLMs are not deterministic.

This is not hard stuff to understand, if you understand computing.

LOL, you clearly have no clue how floating points work in computing. What an imposter you are. Go back to your AI for more "computing" advice, Mr. "Software Engineer".

You could at least go and verify if your AI is lying to you.

Even when proven wrong, you still don't give up LMAO 🤣

I'm not gonna bother anymore with you, just talking to a dumb AI here.

Enjoy your "deterministic" AI and good luck in life.
