If they figure out a way to refine the slop code with another agent, there will be hardly any need for programmers in the future. We’ll see how that works out.

In the meanwhile, LLMs are being used for cyberattacks and many companies are deploying lots of vibe code everywhere. What could go right…

If producing quality code no longer requires skilled programmers, you’re right. As it stands, LLMs produce very raw code that absolutely requires lots of human oversight to qualify as functional.

Exactly. Vibe coding is horrible in the wrong hands, but a skilled programmer can utilise it to carry out boring tasks.

If you’re still learning to code, you can’t evaluate the quality of the output, which will result in wild goose chases, wasted hours and tangled low quality scribble code. If you can find and fix the mistakes, you can actually make certain tasks go much faster. Also, don’t let an LLM write more than 20-50 lines at a time. Finding mistakes in longer segments gets very tricky.

If you have a plan in your head, you can request short segments like that. If you let the LLM take care of everything, it’s just going to dump 200 lines, and then you’ll need to rewrite most of it by hand. Gradual step by step approach works well, but it requires constant oversight.

For example, Debian and Fedora don’t ship with proprietary drivers. The user is still able to install those later, making the OS partially closed source.

Some distros, like Bazzite, give you the proprietary drivers during installation, which makes those partially closed source out of the box.

I got so annoyed by this, that I looked into what the most common GPT quirks are. Now I have a long list of things to hate when reading stuff online. Also, many YT video scripts were clearly written by GPT and edited by nobody. Once you start seeing these signs, you can’t unsee them ever again.

And so it begins…

“A gender ratio that makes the Smurf village look like a feminist utopia”

LOL, what a poet!

LOL. Several levels deep in first world problems…

Yeah, that would be nice. My previous car had a diesel engine, so you can imagine how much I would have loved to have a heater in there. Also, the windshield was totally old-school too, so no heating there either. Just start the engine, and start scraping. Every. Morning. Well, at least the seats were warm, but literally nothing else was.

Yeah I have those gloves too. They’re ok for mildly chill weather like 0 °C, but when the inside of the car goes below -10 °C you really begin to miss proper mittens. When it’s -20 °C, mittens are the only realistic option.

In colder parts of the world you actually drive with mittens on. I have no idea how’s that going to work with modern touch screen cars.

I only know one method. You just destroy the rivet completely with a small metal drill. It’s not clean or nice, but who cares as long as it works.

And if glue isn’t holding it together, consider using rivets or screws instead.

LOL. Yeah, you gotta crank up the GPT in this genre. What was previously seen as a flaw has become the central tenet.

Just tried that, and I couldn’t even find a blog post that addresses exactly what I was looking for. Sure, there were many about adjacent topics, but not my niche interest. However, the AI answer at the top did much better because it was specifically tailored for me.

However, when I’m looking for more general information, I do tend to find blogs written by AI.

Oh I’m sure there is a way. We’ve already grabbed the low hanging fruit, but the next one is a lot higher. It’s there, but it requires some clever trickery and effort.

That’s just musk talk. I’ll ignore the hype and decide based on the results instead.

Interesting. In other models that was a serous problem.
