I'm very torn on Mozilla collaborating with not only slop conductors, but crypto bros as well.
I get the issues with image generation and using text generation in scams etc. but as a professional coding tool (not just vibe coding slop) AI can be extremely helpful certain tasks, and this use case, where organizations just don't have the resources to have a security expert pore through millions of lines of code for bugs, is a net positive.
I think this is a case of "don't throw the baby out with the bathwater" we can absolutely still criticize the industry and specific companies for IP, societal, and environmental concerns but lets not turn away a win just because they're causing harm elsewhere.
admitting to intentionally deskilling yourself has to be humiliating. Ouch.
The AI will exist either way, and people who use that AI will discover these exploits with it. I'd rather it be Mozilla.
AI bros love to normalize their fascist technology by saying that it's inevitable.
Facedeer, can we at least agree it's a bad look for Mozilla to promote a company that helped kill Iranian children and desperately wants to build weapons to kill more?
What are they doing with cryptocurrency now?
Probably a reference to Mozilla adding Brave’s adblocking system to Firefox.
That's why Servo and Ladybird need to be vastly built up
bad news, ladybird is all in on slop too
but servo should be fine, in fact right now they have an explicit anti-ai policy!
Why is it slop? “This was human-directed, not autonomous code generation.” can’t you read the entire post before calling this instance of AI-assisted code slop? Every programmer and their mother uses code assisting tools since their very first iterations, AI is just another tool for us, if we implement it responsibly and deliberately and not just “vibe” code it, then it’s a perfectly fair use of AI without having to add the term slop to it.
"Human directed" is a euphamism for someone pushing a button to generate a result. Huh, sounds people vibe coding.
"If" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in your statement. What makes you think vibe coders will use their new drug responsibly?
Hopefully not, but it makes you wonder how many vulnerabilities they might be introducing by fixing others...
Only the dead have seen the end of zero-days.
This is uplifting news
