Yeah, they'll probably have to check everything. Though, I wonder if even just checking that everything is good to go would save time from manually re-writing it all. While it may not be a smashing success, it could still prove useful.
I dunno, I'm interested to see how this plays out.
I think this is an interesting idea. If they're able to pull it off, I think it will cement the usefulness of LLMs. I have my doubts, but it's worth trying. I'd imagine that the LLM is specially tuned to be more adept at this task. Your bog-standard GPT-4 or Claude will probably be unreliable.
I can see the allure for places wanting to keep certain trouble-makers out as a precaution, but this gets so close to a privatized social credit score that it's beyond uncomfortable.
I've found this to be the case a lot, too. I also spoof my OS because a lot of government sites will refuse to work unless it says Windows. It's stupid, but here we are.
Oui, mais le mien était stupide. On a même utilisé Red Hat pour les serveurs, mais nos postes de travail (c'est le bon mot ?) ne pouvaient pas avoir des logiciels libres. Fanchement, le départment d'informatique était très mauvais. C'est une raison pour laquelle je suis parti.
Les questions de support et de responsabilité peuvent également être un facteur : il peut y avoir une perception de risque plus élevé associé à l’utilisation de logiciels sans garantie ou soutien formel.
Cette idée est la chose la plus importante pour beaucoup d'entreprises. Je l'ai vu quand j'ai demandé que je change mon ordinateur de travail pour Linux. Je suis vraiment plus confortable avec Linux, et je peux mieux travailler en utilisant Linux. Mais, le chef de mon départment m'a dit que « Sans soutien, Linux et les autres logiciels libres sont interdits. » Ils ne comprennent pas la technologie, alors ils en ont peur.
Yeah, I'm in the same boat.
There's also PeerTube, the Fediverse counterpart to YouTube. Unfortunately, while there's some good stuff you can find (and some re-uploads of YouTube), there's just not as much content. I'd imagine the userbase is pretty small, too.
I use a cheap VPS to host my email server. It's a bit easier than running it solely at home, but there's a lot of annoying work to "verify" yourself. Once you get your DNS records good, you shouldn't be blocked after that (unlike a home server). It only costs me $5/month plus the domain, which I think is money well spent. Doing the admin work to make sure I'm secure still needs to happen, but I don't mind that work and find it fun.
I got a laptop back in 2018, and it shipped really fast. It's not my daily driver, but it works well when I'm on the road, and the battery life is pretty good. Granted, I replaced the OS with a distro I prefer and customized the hell out of it, so that might contribute to my experience. Tbh, I was pretty impressed with it (still am), and I was going to buy a Librem 5 when they came out. I wanted to wait and not just throw money at them because I didn't want to get burned. After all the horror stories and crap reviews, I passed on that and won't touch the company with a 10 foot pole, and I thank past me for not throwing money at them.
I think that the company started with noble intentions and made a decent product at first, but they got in way over their heads and now they're floundering.
My thoughts exactly. Growth is a byproduct of quality. Similarly, if the Fediverse grows too much and quality starts to slip, we should also let it shrink until quality comes back. I think our aim should be quality, and anything else is just a side effect.
Yes! "AI" defined as only LLMs and the party trick applications is a bubble. AI in general has been around for decades and will only continue to grow.
