Doubt.

Is this conjecture or can you provide some further reading, in the interest of not spreading misinformation.

Edit: I decided to read the info from Apple.

With Private Cloud Compute, Apple sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing, and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers. When requests are routed to Private Cloud Compute, data is not stored or made accessible to Apple and is only used to fulfill the user’s requests, and independent experts can verify this privacy.

Additionally, access to ChatGPT is integrated into Siri and systemwide Writing Tools across Apple’s platforms, allowing users to access its expertise — as well as its image- and document-understanding capabilities — without needing to jump between tools.

Say what you will about Apple, but privacy isn’t a concern for me. Perhaps, some independent experts will verify this in time.

Well, most of the requests are handled on device with their own models. If it’s going to ChatGPT for something it will ask for permission and then use ChatGPT.

So the Apple Intelligence isn’t all ChatGPT. I think this deserves to be mentioned as a lot of the processing will be on device.

Also, I believe part of the deal is ChatGPT can save nothing and Apple are anonymising the requests too.

No. Thank you for giving me some food for thought and areas to research to further my understanding, rather than talking down to me due to my lack of knowledge on the macro economics of the world.

I really do appreciate you taking the time.

So I preface by saying finance isn’t my forte, but I would like to raise a few thoughts I had whilst reading this.

The first is that the state can just create more currency to pay for things, which to my understanding is not always the case, if you saturate the market with your currency it becomes less valuable and we end up with runaway inflation.

The other point is on the no need for taxes and that we tax the richest and the corporations to remove some of the money supply, clearly this isn’t something that happens as taxes for both of these is rarely raised at the same rate it is for regular people.

Finally, we have most people, in the western world at least, living literal pay check to pay check whilst the likes of Microsoft have gone from less than $2B to over $3B in a few years. The same can be said for Nvidia and many many more.

Edit: I guess my point is, just because this is how things work doesn’t mean things shouldn’t change. Clearly something is broken.

Clearly what works for our company ain’t what would work for you, even if I think it’s preposterous what you’re claiming.

My boss was working on Open Source from the BSD days and is capable of very low level programming. He has forgotten more than I’ll ever know, and if he can find LLMs a useful tool for our literal company to improve productivity then I’m inclined to stick with what I have seen and experienced. Just not having to do and search documentation alone is a massive time saver. Unless obviously you know everything, which nobody does.

I’m a developer and typing encompasses most of my day. The owner and lead engineer has many meeting and admin work, but still is writing code and scaffolding new projects around 30% of his time.

That would still make more effort.

So, for an example we use a hook called useChanges() for tracking changes to a model in the client, it has a very standard set of arguments.

Why would we want to waste time writing it out all the time when we can write the usual comment “Product Model” and have it do the work.

Copy and Paste takes more effort as we WILL have to change the dynamic parts every time, macros will take longer as we have to create the macros for every different convention we have.

If you can’t see the benefit of LLMs as a TOOL to aid developers then I would hazard a guess you are not in the industry or you just haven’t even given them a go.

I will say I am a new developer and not amazing, but my boss the owner and lead engineer is a certified genius, who will write flawless code on damn teams to help me along at times, and if he can benefit from it in time saved then anybody would.

If 90% of the countries in the world are in debt and corporations have more money than god, then clearly the system isn’t ideal.

$34T is insane for one single country.

As for infrastructure, proper taxation of corporations would raise more revenue to fix such things. If Amazon is contributing to the breakdown of roads due to all the couriers then they should be paying more tax.

Look at the water companies in the UK. Paid out their shareholders for decades and did nothing to improve the infrastructure which is now likely to end up with them being nationalised after they’ve looted what they could.

Simply false in my experience.

We use CoPilot at work and there is no babysitting required.

We are software developers / engineers and it’s saves countless hours writing boilerplate code, giving code blocks based on a comment, and sticking to our coding conventions.

Sure it isn’t 100% right, but the owner and lead engineer calculates it to be around 70% accurate and even if it misses the mark, we have a whole lot less key presses to make.

On a serious note. Are there any countries without any national debt? Because if not then clearly capitalism is broken right?

It’s a meme not a dissertation on finance.

From one pedant to another, you’ve gone to far this time.

Thanks.

I guess if I get one I can say “I use Arch btw”.
