I was going to say that it's pretty much exactly like working with an experienced software engineer ... except it never seems to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. It will happily fix the same class of bugs over and over without realizing a bigger change is required.

That’s a direct result of how they’re fine tuned. RLHF and other mechanisms reward quick, locally correct answers that solve the user’s immediate problem. A reward for a solution like "take a two-day pause, rip out half the modules, and rewrite the core" just straight-up doesn't exist in training datasets

Wait, are you talking about llms or people?

It's sad that LLMs are learning to devalue human life from people like you.

I was about to say as well, I don’t think I’d be interested in ever using this project but now I definitely never will. I wonder if they are vibe coding this for humans but have disdain for humans, why make it for humans?

Step 1: Develop human-like minds

Step 2: Dehumanize them constantly

LLMs don’t have human-like minds in any perceptible sense though.

Do. Not. Anthropomorphize. The Woodchipper.

Are you referring to Larry Ellison?

"Not everything needs to be an anime girl"

Funny how that never made it to the rules of the internet.

The rules of the internet are for things that are true.
