@amackif@mastodon.social @saxnot@chaos.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu If you'd spend the same amount of money that was pumped into AI on supporting open source, there would be far less security issues, and we'd have a much more sustainable development model. It doesn't matter how "useful" AI is, when it requires DDoSing the entire internet to (unethically) slurp up anything and everything. Want to do better than the US? Fund these projects directly. Spend the trillions of euros on supporting their development directly, rather than on supporting a spicy autocorrect.

@amackif@mastodon.social @saxnot@chaos.social @algernon@come-from.mad-scientist.club @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu Gen ai is not a breakthrough. The people who use LLMs and other machine learning tools already knew they could make a bigass chatbot. They also knew what the upper limit of effectiveness was, and didn't go sprinting off down that dead end.

@amackif@mastodon.social @algernon@come-from.mad-scientist.club @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu i'm a software developer and I spoke about my job and studies regarding my job. I'm very well aware what an LLM is. I even know what an RNN, softmax or Adam optimizer is. People who use the term »AI« are either scammers or are being fooled by more intelligent scammers. Yes, LLM are useful. They have been invented to be useful. Re-read my previous toot to know my current stance on »AI«
