No problem. The idea is still valid.

The problem with that is that most people writing code do not have a good idea what is all required on a more abstract level. And hence using coding assistants they will overlook stuff they would not have coding directly. This is, incidentally, not a new situation. When I did my CS studies some 35 years ago, the 5GL project had just completely failed. The idea was to have the coder only write a spec in constraint logic and have the code synthesized by software. Turns out, writing a spec for code is much harder and more effort than writing code. I suspect LLM coding assistants are subject to the same problem, with hallucinations added on top.

The GCC folks have obviously a far better understanding of the problem than the Debian leadership.

Hmm. Hitler was vegetarian, veganism was not really possible back then. Putin and Trump are not vegan and Xi is not either.

Who do you mean?

Anyways, I suspect correlation, not causation.

Nope. You can give yourself diabetes just eating a lot of ripe fruit. Stop pushing lies, you are doing evil.

There is also the thing that tasting "sweet" triggers insulin production and hence you need to consume real sugar to compensate for the loss in blood sugar.

All "sweet" is problematic. It is a rare part in any natural diet, and if you make it more than a relatively rare part of yours, there will be negative consequences.

You are welcome! It is a nice word, even if a world where it is quite relevant is not.

And yet I am strangely unimpressed and looking forward to some other things. Maybe I am a total outlier, but I do not think so.

Maybe generative "AI" is the source of that?

Since graphics are not that important to me (as long as the mechanics work), but voice acting is, I guess I am not interested.

Exactly. It also needs to be done as the attackers will do it as well. But in a while this effect will die down and we are back to humans doing the vast majority of problem finding.

Not really. LLMs are actually pretty crap at this. But they have a somewhat different perspective than humans and are not prone to boredom. So they find bugs now that humans did not find, but that is a pretty temporary effect.

The LLMs currently find all the boring bugs nobody was interested in finding. Once these are gone, we will be back to normal.

Indeed. But the LLM cultists think they LLMs are magic. And obviously, LLM conversations will have the highest levels of protection, surely.

In actual reality, a single simple question to any of the free LLMs or even the free search-integrated ones would have shown these people actual reality. But when you do magical thinking, you do not verify against reality, no matter how simple that would be.

They could have asked a simple question to any of the free LLMs out there and they would have known. Instead they assumed without any attempt to find out. Does not get much dumber than this.

On the plus side, if this is the typical LLM user, the LLM brain-rot that is currently found in numerous studies will not destroy anything of value.

Probably more of the magical thinking so prevalent with the LLM fans. I mean a simple question to any free LLM will likely give you a very clear answer. The problem is these morons do not even ask the question. They just think LLMs are magic and great and cannot have any bad properties. I would say it could be LLM induced brain-rot, except that these people probably came in this exceptionally dumb.
