- What if I just modify the code to misspell things that no AI would misspell?
- If I'm being honest... I expect the websites to keep returning errors and have hopes that those that employ you to at least start to understand what's going on.
- I think more often you'll find it's the mediocre coders (like myself) that have trouble using AI. The software developers and CS majors just know exactly what to tell it to do and in the *exact* language it could best be understood. That's just my experience.
Also, I get caught up in multiple errors that will never go away and, since I'm stepping out of my wheelhouse with libraries or packages I'm completely unfamiliar with, I'm completely helpless but to diagnose what went wrong myself and improve upon my code prompting skills.
Don't get me wrong. AI makes possible many things for me. However, I think professional coders probably accomplish much more.
- It'd be nice if they underwent tests and developed fine-tuning data that was proven to work rather than using fine-tuning data made to cater to human preferences.
When I would look at Copilot's searches, it was as juvenile as what my grandma would type right after I taught her what a search engine was.
- I feel like it should instead link to a video in the sling.com domain with almost patronizing instructions on how to convert their login to Sling and promote it as "Your very own Blockbuster at home".

Appears the "OPEN" light was on in July of 2021 from street view.

- >Why there are no companies that arrange this?
That's a weird expectation. But I think, for starters, that the reason you don't see it often is that when it comes to jobs working with your hands, you'll find that incredibly costly accidents by employees overwhelmingly occur within the first few months. I've seen it while a technician at Verizon and also for the local transportation agency. A new hire is an investment where you take on massive risk to start with, and you recoup costs incurred after the first few months when the risk dramatically falls.
- Sweet! I'll be hiding that under my mattress.
- I got it in 6 years and seven months and got filthy rich on PhD coin. Bear in mind, I think not being a PhD actually made the game MUCH easier for me because I had no empathy for the character and approached it as semi-predictable inputs and outputs.
- Hmmm.. I'm trying to imagine interviewing for SE and telling them I got wealthy from a crypto market-making algorithm I coded in R during Covid and the interviewer responding with anything but laughter or with silence as they ponder legal ways to question my mental health.
It's an excellent language, I think, for many reasons. One is that you can work with data within hours because even before learning what packages or classes are, you got native objects for data storage, wrangling, and analysis. Even import my Excel data and rapidly learn the native function cheat sheet so fast that I was excited to learn what packages are because I couldn't wait to see what I could do.
That was my experience in like 2010, maybe, and after having C++ and Python go in and out my head during college multiple times. I view R as simple only because I actually felt more helpless to keep learning it than helpless to ever learn coding at all. Worth noting that I was a Stat/Probability tutor with a Finance degree and much Excel experience.
- >The code ChatGPT generates is often bad in ways that are hard to detect. If you are not an experienced software engineer, the defects could be impossible to detect
I keep hearing this, but it's incorrect. While I only know R, which is obviously a simple language, I would never type out all my code and go without testing to ensure it does what I intended before using it regularly.
So I can't imagine someone that knows a more complex language just typing out all of it before integrating it into business systems at their work or anything else before testing it.
Why would AI be any different?
Why the hell are AI skeptics acting like getting help from an LLM would involve not testing anything? Of course I test it! Why on earth wouldn't I? Just as I tested code made by freelancers I hired on commission before using the code I bought from them. Do AI skeptics really not test their own code? Are you all insane?
- AFAIK, Rolfe's persona started with him including two added videos at the end of some horror DVD he made in Art School. One for Castlevania 2 and another.
However, I'd argue that Mike Matei provided all the serious production value of the show. Which is ironic, because fans of the show grew to hate him both for his lower production value experimental vids starring him on the channel and eventually for controversial cartoons made when he was like 18. So while they were clamoring for Rolfe to ditch Matei, the irony was that the show starred by Rolfe was like 98% reliant on Matei's professional talent. Just my take.
Also, I don't think he was ever intended to represent a modern gamer. If you were our age, you'd understand that Rolfe's gimmick was to dredge up the era whereby garbage games were being produced with Nintendo Power magazine giving them high reviews, leaving us horribly disappointed every Christmas and Birthday when we got the games we asked for. Has less to do with gaming than just an era in which we were ripped off constantly. Without social media, we would blame ourselves and his gimmick is relatable and cathartic in a sense.
- Angry Video Game Nerd, on Youtube, had a huge issue finding a working one and I don't think he ever did. He just kept ordering new ones and kept getting duds. Even took it to his friend that performs unusual repairs and the guy said they were all 100% broken. I believe you, though. Might have just been a problem with the resale market being flooded with all the broken ones.
- I'm pretty sure Neo Geo CD on the resale market is known for having like a 99.5% defect rate on youtube.
- >all these systems that obsessed me as a child.
I remember being obsessed with this system, too. It was more like a legend than a system. Everyone knew someone that knows someone with a Neo Geo. It was never within my reach to play one. A $600 system with $200 games in the 90s? But they were all arcade-level and only the richest kid (or kid whose parents were competing after a messy divorce) had one.
- Exactly what I was thinking.

>Paradoxically, smaller models require more training to reach the same level of performance.
It's not a paradox at all. If less training to reach the same level of performance was true, that would be a paradox whereby they'd be trained for under a nanosecond to achieve optimal performance/size payoff.
- The giraffe actually does look like Geoffrey. I don't know how they're "spitting on their own graves".
It's just not the same company. Not the same management. Probably not even a single member of the board still from the days before it was bought by private equity. That's literally how it works. They buy it for parts and basically sell off even those parts just to invest in something built from scratch, but with the same logo.
I've fed into several models my past reddit comments (with the comments it's responding to) and asked it to duplicate the style. Claude has always been the only thing that comes even close to original responses that even I think would be exactly my response, wording and all.
GPT or Gemini will just borrow snippets from the example text and just smoosh it together to make semi-coherent points. Scratch that. They're coherent, but they're just unmistakably not from me.
