one might be tempted to assume it’s something that’s readily replicable by the competition (and they need to prevent that as long as they can) instead of any sort of notably important breakthrough.

ah yes, open AI

Passenger! I wanted to drive people to their cool vacations and whatnot. Also passenger trains go vroooom and freights are like super slow and lame, and carry coal or some other boring stuff.

developers are scrutinising AI-written code less than they would scrutinise their own code

Wait, is this how Those People claim that Copilot actually "improved their productivity"? They just don't fucking read what the machine output?

I was always like "how can Copilot make me code faster if all it does is give me bad code to review which takes more than just writing it" and the answer is "what do you mean review"????

I wanted to be a train.

I also had some extremely cringeworthy and not-even-wrong opinions 23 years ago, but at least I was 3yo then.

The terms, concerningly, don't give a firm data retention time frame, and say that LineLeap may be "unable to fully delete or de-identify" user data due to "technical" or "other operational reasons."

My villain arc is going to be turning into Thanos and collecting them stones just to enforce GDPR forever into cosmic law with a snap of my fingers.

Kay mate, rational thought 101:

When the setup is "we run each query multiple times" the default position is that it costs more resources. If you claim they use roughly the same amount you need to substantiate that claim.

Like, that sounds like a pretty impressive CS paper, "we figured out how to run inference N times but pay roughly the cost of one" is a hell of an abstract.

Literally the same shit as during the war against work from home.

Hey look, they are more productive, get their work done faster, don't have to spend 10% of their life commuting, and have more freedom. OUTRAGEOUS!

(Only this time there's no actual productivity boost, but they're still preemptively mad?)

Posteo is from Germany

That's significantly less comforting than Proton's Switzerland. It's in 14 Eyes after all.

I immediatelly knew who and what you were talking about without even clicking.

May the fact that he also lives inside my head rent-free be some solace to you.
