And in actual reality, not even the misleading title says that.

I think the keyword here is "equate", which probably means "very strongly correlated". If it is merely strongly correlated, "does not equate" would already be true. Essentially a nice example for a lie by misdirection.

That is a third-world situation though.

Who would have thought?

You wish. That is deep delusion.

Indeed. Absolutely incredible. Whoever negotiated those contracts belongs in prison for treason. I mean, this is not even about China. You do not allow foreign access to your secret-level government IT infrastructure, period. But I guess MS pays really good bribes.

Arrogance, stupidity, incompetence, and then they lost the only advantage (besides criminal business practices) they ever had: The superior semiconductor manufacturing process. They are done for.

Dark times.

Exactly. Also "I know I wasted mountains of money on this stupidly, get me something that helps hiding how incompetent I am!"

That claim alone already nicely shows you are incompetent. Because nobody gets that level of use out of coding assistants. Sure, there are some people that struggle at "Hello, world" and these may mistakenly think what they get is "incredible". But these people do not count. The other option is that you are in delusion or lying.

Indeed. And LLMs cannot scale up, because that requires actual insight and model-building. These things are restricted to smart humans. Admittedly, smart humans are a minority and most humans would not ever reach these 800 lines. But in actual software projects, 800 lines is tiny. Maybe you can do, say, the software for a heater or a simple electronic scale in that.

Hahahaha, no. That one is called "delusion". To be fair, sycophantic tactics are often aiming at creating exactly this impression. This approach works well on weaker minds and the commercial LLMs are all using it.

Well, I assume there are few people working at Microsoft with personal integrity or honor, so I expect there will be quite a few promotions now.

That sad thing is that Zuck-the-Fuck has the money for these massively expensive pathetic failures. Something is really wrong with the human race as a group.

Indeed. Essentially gross leadership failure.

Scientists and engineers with intact personal integrity will leave at that point. The smart ones will leave when demands like that are made, because this invariably backfires.
