Free? Dare I ask where the hell you grew that delusion? Program costs exceed $40 million a year. And basic math doesn’t give a shit about your political affiliation.

This kind of thinking is why men will be using credit score as a filter on dating apps soon. Because girl math also results in much “free” think.

To others yes, but not to you. It can be impossible to prove to an idiot that they are an idiot, but you do realize others read Slashdot, right? Or are you an even bigger idiot than it at first appears?

Step #1: Create an "auto-pilot" entity that runs in the background auditing every action taken by every employee on every computer.

Step #2: Gather that data for a few years and feed it into the AI CP-Anal-yzer, and out spits the blueprint on how to run a company, but without the necessary detriment of those pesky humans.

Step #3: Make payment to HAL and Skynet. Or else.

Nothing hotter than having Helpy Helperton the "autopilot" auto-auditing every single action being taken by every entity within the entire organization.

Get those all-knowing, all-seeing company-wide audit trails hacked while they're scorched-earth hot. I hear that special tint of target-on-your-back red paint is on sale until the end of the zero-day week at HacksRUs.

You're right.

And you should get that $7 refund check just in time for the hardware to be deemed past the supported expiry date.

Was it worth it the last time? It likely was, so what should we expect them to do. In 21st Century Capitalism, every shitty/immoral/unethical/illegal action is weight against the punishment first. Not against morals, ethics, or even laws.

Why? Because billions spent lubin, er lobbying lawmakers up makes being shitty worth it. Every fucking time.

The Legal system replaced the Justice system when it became By Lawyers, For Lawyers. Who profit the most from it. Every fucking time.

(Also helps when you're considered Too Big To Fail because of Magnificent Seven status.)

Zig isn't ready for AI because AI isn't ready for Zig. There is a bootstrapping problem. Quality training data is limited because it is new, and many humans don't yet have the experience needed to be good at it.

Since Zig is newer, developers are often learning the language alongside the AI. A novice developer might accept an AI's bad allocator usage or improper async handling simply because they lack the expertise to audit it properly. This creates a situation that causes AI to be less effective when using it for Zig development when compared to C and C++ development efficacy, even if they review proposed changes prior to submission of the pull request. Citing Zigs experience as indicative of a global condemnation of AIs usefulness in a software development context represents a complete failure to look at the big picture and place the facts in context. One can use an AI to explore this further.

After thinking a bit about this I asked Gemini (free version) "I am trying to determine if AI generated zig code would likely be of poorer quality than C code due to a few factors. One is that zig is new so many developers may not be very skilled with it, and another is that there is limited training data as compared to C or C++." It had a lot of insightful commentary on my point. In fact there was far too much to copy and paste here, but anyone interested can do so if they want to explore my point (made primarily in the first paragraph of this post) further.

An example that a lot of people don't understand how to use AI properly is not an example of proof that AI is useless or flawed and produces trash and reduces efficiency. As with any tool, when used properly by skilled people it is a good thing, and when misused by people with no training in its use it can be counterproductive and sometimes destructive.

Assuming a correlation between Slashdot UID and the users age and experience calls into question your software development skills.

Nobody knows that because you just pulled that claim out of your ass.

I agree. Now go ask them a question that requires actual thought.

(I know. I never thought I'd see the literal physical embodiment of the spinning wheel of death either. But here we are.)

Now start demanding answers about the denied side-effects of replacing proper parenting with a fucking prescription bottle. Because the evidence is mounting.

Putting aside all those zero-day "bug" jokes about Google being involved with literal pest control, can someone explain why the hell Google is involved? Does AI get even more delusional with the sound of mosquito buzzing within 3 acres of an AI data center or something? The hell is this Kraptonite story actually about anyway?

Perhaps mega-corps are wanting to suddenly provide what I would define as "social charity" in lieu of the damage they've done. A Prime example of this is Amazon graciously allowing the Mom and Pop competition to exist on their site..after driving all the Mom and Pop businesses out of their brick and mortar existence.

Perhaps this is Googles way of not being Too Evil. Right before they raze 10,000 acres of natural forest for that data center and people start noticing where all those mosquitos re-located to..

As an American citizen who remembers decades of normal jargon being used in broadcast TV and shows, it’s painfully obvious the phenomenon is driven by social media profitability, not Puritanism. America could say these words just fine less than a decade ago. Back before we invented such stupidity like “unalive”. Self-censorship became as natural as not cussing your fucking face off in the boardroom. Only far less justified.

True. Makes you wonder what could come from AI-enhanced 3D printing of filters though.

LEAP 71 is already doing incredible things with rocket engines.

In the land of gross unaccountability, all present and accounted for has somehow legally translated into technically we found every piece..
