That is already an issue with technological progress. Peoples protesting because machines are more efficient and removing jobs. The issue being the profit of increased tech not being shared correctly among humanity.
This issue has not been solved. I am glad there are other peoples becoming aware of it with the rise of IA.
Work and salaries ? Like from their own pocket ? No. That is the business money. Wasted. Time, attention, of peoples wasted.
That is the same absurd logic as for not to replace low qualified human physical work by machines (self checkout in supermarket).
Having less jobs due to technology or less stupid work should be seen as good for humanity.
Perhaps, instead, of imagining some stupid jobs and occupation, so peoples can be paid and survive. We coul reduce the total workhours of working people, so that senseful work would employ more peoples. And with no changes to the salary ofc.
I am not so good with english, so let me rephrase it. What would happen to humanity if 90 % went jobless because -let's imagine- robots and IA would efficientely replace us. Would 90 % be condemned to die in the cold when there is abondance ? Because they have no job and a 0.00001 % "owns" the robots ?
I agree with you. What come to my mind, is that GPT using private data to learn, if given back to (any) customer, you would have an indirect "open source everything".
Maybe it depicts a part of this galaxy history. I like to believe that work of art that touches us, stay in our memory, has some truth into it that fascinate us.
We are strongly led to believe we are alone in the universe, and that we are the first human like specie in the whole universe and our solar system to ever have existed. Believing otherwise is pure heresy. What is left for us to contact part of the world that we know exist but that "can't be real because that would be heresy" ?
Yeah I heard that from coworkers. Lazy mind, yes. Read the doc, look one example, check one stackoverflow link and you will know how you make a caroussel UI component...
And please do not use it to try understanding some logic in your codebase. Try even less giving him a small snippet of the codebase, thinking it will magically understand what it does and correctly imagine what all the missing related code of snippet is and does. ( ! )
Most of the time I just wanna scream "use you brain". By the time he wrote his first sentence to the IA, I've resolved the issue, or at least have a clue. It is really infuriating because what more is that ChatGPT need a -minimum- precise request to be expected to give a useful response. When the request from the user is blatantly inprecise kinda like "help, thing doesn't work", I just feel bad for the IA having to deal with terrible communication, and for myself for having to deal with that coworker. Thanksfully when I am the one being asked help, I know the project, can look into the code, and coworkers can show me the issue instead of failing to explain it.
Yeah that is why I like programming, computers only accept precise communication, it is not "move that div on the left" but "move div by id X to the left of itself" 120px over 200ms with a linear speed".
Only once ChatGPT did better than my mind or google : someone was searching the name of a bank starting wirh the letter "o".
Your statement is correct, google replace a lot of my memory, maybe someone could call me lazy too.
Thinking about banning the forum instead of trying understand the stories, the pain, how we could help is stupid.
I feel like again "peoples" wabt to remove the red flare instead of going for the root cause. Because it is much easier. This is very present for mental health. Ignore the cause, just fet some surgery and a lot of medicine until it get worse and you die. Change you way of living, explore past traumas, question your strongest beliefs ? Hell no. Better ban a forum and call it fixed.
I recommend you check out reddit r/LateStageCapitalism .
There is so much to be said about how fuck up our world is, I don't wanna start or i'll write a brick.
Elon Musk said recently that school is a joke, and that he do home schooling. Well, he is not the first one to have said it, but he is damn right. Idriss Aberkane has some very good conferences on the subject.
In USA, compared to France, you can add the issue of student debt (slavery). And the city layout being made for cars, public transportation or bikes are scarce, meaning young ones have to heavely rely on parents to do any activitie.
Oh... and your president is not just bad and malevolent, like in France, he is also senile. But like in France, a lot of citizen have voted for him.
Finnaly, who is really sick here ?
"It is not a sign of good mental health to be well adapted to a sick society."
We just don't want to freely give our data to US competitors companies. Is that hard to understand ? Do you think US company would reveal their blueprints and source code to the rest of the world ?
A phobia is an irrational fear, this is a rational fear.
About how EU treat engineers, this is a separate issue, in France at least, there is the belief that advancing in your career (=get paid more) means becoming manager.
You can keep your insects and lab meat for yourself. I think they are doing a great job banning lab meat and insects flour... If they really did. Because last time I checked I read they were just displaying insects flour on a special shelf, not a ban.
It is neither "antiquated" nor "idiotic", I value good, tasty and healthy food, in that regards I think Italians and French are alike.
> Making "non-standard" changes [...] ressembling an long archeological expedition...
This. This is how I felt trying to understand legacy core code. I kind of like that though. The idea of being able to improve/rewrite a decrepit piece of code excite me. But you won't be productive, and getting a (somewhat) complete and precise understanding of what it does and doesn't, take a lot of extra time.
I've bought and seen crap with good reviews. On Amazon.
You have a good chance to end with some chinese crap if you rely only on Amazon.
On some product, I prefer finding a specialized seller (that isn't dropshipping). Or find a real blog (tends to be hard with all those fakes websites listing top 100 products, but they nmask hemselves when all products are chinese crap on Amazon). Reddit also work to get advice from peoples.
What's more. I make research on the compagny producing the thing. LinkedIn helps with that. Only commercials on a tech product ? Get out.
There is not only personalities like Trump, peoples like Silvano Trotta, Christian Perronne, Astrid Stuckelberger, Christine Cotton, should also be unbanned if he do things right. All theses peoples have switched to Telegram, but they might come back on twitter if Musk is serious about free speech and unban them. With their followers...
How about making changes to the interface html structure/ids and same for the api. Will break any program using it, but won't bother users. Now record what accounts are silenced by that, do it multiples times and ypu have an idea who is a bot ?
I take notes of (almost) everything I work on. What links I went to, screenshot or snippets of relevant information, current thought. The structure is simple, a folder for the project, and one .md file per day.
It helps me think by writing thing down, free brain memory space and reduces browser tabs number. It gives me an history of what I tried put earlier to solve my issue.
It also give me something to say if anybody ask what I have been doing these past weeks or months (employer, recruiter). Finally, if I ever get a similar bug, I have a good chance to find some help from my past self with ctrl-shift-f. I write my notes with webstorm.
I wish there was some tools like Unity animation panel or Behavior Tree plugin in Unity.
Tools that would integrate well with any code in JS. Maybe you would define blocks with code, and wire the things up in the IDE but with a graphical interface. Kind of like how draw.io is integrated in Jetbrains IDE (and certainly in VSCode too).
