This is statism, writ large.

You get paid for work you PERFORM, but not work you RECORD. Copyright is anti-individual rights and liberties.

I'll be glad when Ai truly replaces all of these artists.

Yeah, the FAA will not put up with AI nonsense, esp for things that require a certified compiler... but DoD? Their standards are a lot lower since troops can not sue for wrongful death.

Boeing is going all in on AI tools. The entire software org is being pushed to put together plans for how they will using "Boeing AI' to decrease costs and increase output. I've been listening to people talk about how it made writing tests so much easier.. tests that are run on aircraft software for formal qualification... and these people are being richly rewarded by management, who have staked their career on AI....

AI just replaces the formal grammar of 3rd generation languages with an informal english-like grammar of a 4th generation language. Which means unlike compilers or assemblers, it will always be unpredictable and non deterministic, which makes it differnt from those other two examples in a very important way.

Yeah. These coding assistants are just 4th generation programming languages with no documented spec. Prompts are just another programming language, but using an informal grammar that can change without warning... which also means there is a rather low ceiling of how good you can get at it.

The more common or generic a task is, the more likely a machine learning system will be able to do it. Such contests do not exactly pick obscure or difficult concepts for people to implement, so not surprising that such a system would do well at it.

Can I ask what you use the agents for? I for the life of me can't imagine giving any AI the ability to autonomously change code.

Oh come on.

We've been saying "Thanks, Biden!" for years as a joke, and you blue haired legbeards always got riled up with your "source????" and "citation needed???" cries.

(FWIW I don't support Trump and have never voted Republican).

Government generally is pretty efficient. The problem tends to come to people to comparing it to things, well, that it isn't... or asking 'why isn't it only doing the things I want?' and counting everything else as 'inefficient'. It doesn't help that a whole pundit industry (and its political pipeline) has sprung up with the idea that government is ineffient... naturally people don't know or check, but they hear it everywhere.

yeah, but that will not really hit till a democrat is in power again, at which point the GoP will blame, I don't know, communist squirrels or whatever else they can get people riled up about.

The US probably should have broken up a long time ago. While we like to think of ourselves as a single nation, really we are an empire made up of culturally distinct groups, with uneasy coalitions taking and losing control over the decades.

Every article about this phenomenon sounds like its the same guy in each one.

Why are they never telling us what type of work work these AI are doing?

This is such cry-baby nonsense.

NONSENSE.

Since 2008, I have personally mentored dozens of young dudes (at no cost whatsoever, just because that's what successful people do).

I have helped poor dudes in bad neighborhoods buck up, get some side hustles, stack cash, and buy property.

You fucked yourself because you refuse to actually do someone to buy property. I don't know ANYONE, starting with even zero money, who couldn't find a nice home in just 2-3 years of saving money properly -- except the lepers in California, and fuck them anyway.

The ikea chair still actually works as a chair, usually quite well, and is functionality indistinguishable from a 19th century hand crafted masterpiece.
