Indeed. The actual reality is that general LLMs are not useless, but they are not a game-changer either. They are a gradual improvement of some things. And they are not yet at a point where they can actually get profitable and will not be there for a few decades at least. Hence a total economic collapse of the space for general LLMs is inevitable and will happen some time within the next few years. Depends on how much stupid money the LLM makers can get on top of what they already burned.

But CEOs are very often disconnected from reality and typically have "visions" instead of understanding. Makes them east prey for typical commercial LLMs. I am convinced that these LLMs were specifically designed to attack that vulnerability.

You are confused. And you should look up "argument from authority" and why a simulation is not reality and a fundamental principle within a simulation does not make that principle fundamental for the thing simulated.

Sorry, but in a somewhat fuzzy sense, "race" _is_ real. It just does not mean what people that try to elevate themselves by their racial membership think it means. For example, Science says no impact on intelligence. But try to ask a skin-doctor whether he can treat black and white people simply the same. (Obviously, this is more complex than just black vs. white.) There are countless medical effects from racial membership. Note that racial membership can be stronger or weaker or mixed. But it has medical effects that need to be taken into account for good treatment outcomes.

So claiming "race is not real" is a lie. Claiming that some races are dumber or less capable of "inferior" regarding mental capabilities is also a lie. On the physical side, hilariously, the genetics of "white" is generally the weakest as it is the most specialized. (This is, again, simplified.)

Looking at effects of Christian religions is not "Christophic". Claiming so is fundamentally dishonest and an attempt to shut down a factual discussion.

Now here is a fact: All religion is made-up. And many of the followers understand that on some level. They just do not want to be reminded of it, as they (mis-) use religion for things like dealing with existential terror.

My guess is that this is the deeply religious that deep down know their certainties about death are imaginary. They really do not want to be reminded of that.

No surprise. Textbooks tend to not call things fundamental that are not. Especially as there are better words, like "standard approach", "best understood approach", etc.

Thanks for the reference.

Boundless arrogance is boundless arrogance. I am a PhD engineer.

Thanks for pointing that out. It is, obviously, a rhetorical question though. These idiots replace facts and insight with "how they feel" and then apparently expect reality to conform to that.

Yes. Quantum gravity is missing. And we have no idea what that means. It may be tiny adjustments at "normal" conditions, but there may also be massive surprises in there. There is also another thing: Whole Quantum theory has been experimentally verified, the precision of these verifications is massively lower than for any sane prediction that quantum computing will work. This is a second area for likely surprises.

The thing people often get wrong is that both relativity and quantum theory are _models_ of reality, they are not reality. Models are always flawed and always incomplete, at least that is the case for every model the human race has ever come up with. There is absolutely no reason to believe this one time to be different.

The problem with that is that the static analysis tools typically also have a quite low false negative rate. Hence you get more for working through the reports.

I expect that is not true for LLMs.

Thanks for confirming what I already suspected. This is worthless, or rather negative-worth, slop. It nicely illustrates again that LLMs come with impressive recognition of localized patterns, but absolutely no insight whatsoever.

Obviously, good code will have redundancy in the form of defense-in-depth, minimal privilege, input validation, privilege separation and so on. But this mythically stupid system cannot understand any of that. And hence it flags non-problems and makes us all less secure by wasting developer time.

Lies, damned lies and marketing. No different in the LLM space.

I have no idea. Why does it matter?

It was a generally accepted principle. Please stop with the abuse of language to make things sound more flashy. It just makes you look dumb.
