On LLMs, because transparency is valuable. The Oxide RFD on LLM usage, linked, aligns with usage of LLMs in Weaver's development. rfd.shared.oxide.computer/rfd/0576 No substantial human-facing writing for Weaver will be LLM-written. No AI-generated images will be used in branding or elsewhere.

I gotta give it to my guy Astyanax, but there's a lot of good stuff on this cart.

Interplay 1 also has the honor of containing the (currently) 655th best NES game according to @jeffgerstmann.com : Battle Chess. Course elsewhere on the platform we've also got number 16, Blaster Master. And number 26, RC ProAm. Even number 1, Mega Man 2 if we count discontinued hardware built-ins.

"What do you think we should do with people breaking the law who are here illegally," is a non sequitur meant to leave viewers with something familiar to be angry about so they can disregard everything else this person said. Y'know cause Renee Good was neither breaking the law nor here illegally.

So let's have the conversation "people will use these tools, how do we make it safe" rather than "how do we shame people enough to prevent them from using these tools."

...used in OSS, which also impacts how they're used in the industry. There's no way to prove positively "no AI was involved here." And even if there were, that doesn't help maintainers actually evaluate the change in any meaningful way anyway.

Ah it seems the discourse moved on while I wasn't watching. I remember zkat from my time on fedi and I have lots of respect for them. I hope they're able to recharge and come back to OSS when they're ready. I think there are lots of important discussions we could be having around how LLMs are...

Anyway I ain't looking to get directly involved in That Drama - and the Discover feed has kindly kept all my posts off it for years now. But I just found the confessional tone in that PR striking.

like I ain't shaming folks just for using it...maybe a little based on how they use it. Especially not OSS projects cause they have the benefit of being able to show that all contributions go through the same rigorous manual and automated checks so it doesn't matter how the changes were written.

Like, search for how often I've used the phrase "AI bad." For me, LLM-based features and tools need to do a lot to balance their ties to the technofascism eating my country. And honestly code agents, used responsibly, clears that bar for me. I use it a bit at work and not at all personally but...

Saw someone on That Repo confessing to the sin of having once accidentally learned something from a chatbot while trying to demonstrate how wrong they are. I don't know if that was genuine or not, but maybe it's a sign this has all gone far enough?

It's bizarre how tightly people cling to this idea of Twitter from 10 years ago. I don't know how to give people the courage to wake up from this, but that's all it's gonna take.
