Microsoft CEO warns that we must 'do something useful' with AI or they'll lose 'social permission' to burn electricity on it

Oh yeah for sure, I have seen tests that are pretty useless, for me the way I do it is I write the first one or two tests then instruct copilot to follow the patterns and then it does well, ofc I have to double check it, but reading is easier than having to write it.

Based on my lived experience I don't think it's as much as the brand as it is the horsepower available to you, I have owned a Kia Stinger briefly, that's a fucking Kia, even though Albert Biermann former head of BMW's M division helped create it, but it had a V6 engine and 370hp stock, if you put your foot down it roared and kept pulling even above 160km/h.

The thing was I bought it as a weekend fun car, but shortly after I had to change work and needed to commute to work and let me tell you, it's hard to drive a car like that calmly. There was even a psychological effect that "I can't let this Ford Craprerra overtake me"

And yeah, with that amount of power at your feet, everyone else is in the way and blocking you.

Plus those fast cars are an entirely different feel on the road, my regular A to B car, I can't go much above 160, because you start to feel it, my parents Euro Econobox Skoda fabia, it feels dangerous when going 120 on the highway, in the Stinger I went 200 kph on the highway and felt nothing, the only thing made me feel dangerous was how fast I was gaining on other cars and that they might unexpectedly pull in front of me

Granted lots of mediocre engineers also use the "freeze the results" method for meaningless test coverage,

I'd be interested what you mean by this? Isn't all unit tests just freezing the result? A method is an algorithm for certain inputs you expect certain outputs, you unit tests these inputs and matching outputs, and add coverage for edge cases because it's cheap to do with unit tests and these "freeze the results" or rather lock them in so you know that piece of code always works as expected or it's "frozen/locked in"

You are presupposing that your opinion about LLMs is absolutely correct and then of course you arrive at your predetermined conclusion.

What about the free LLmodels available out of china and other places that democratizes the LLMs?

Therefore, to strive for a balanced approach towards AI puts you on the wrong side of the battle for humanity, and therefore human history.

Thanks for not being dramatic, lol.

LLMs will generate the tests based on how the code works and not how it is supposed to work.

You can tell it to generate based on how it's supposed to work you know

I will try to have a balanced take here:

The positives:

there are some uses for this "AI"
like an IDE it can help speed up the process of development especially for menial tasks that are important such as unit test coverage.
it can be useful to reword things to match the corpo slang that will make you puke if you need to use it.
it is useful as a sort of better google, like for things that are documented but reading the documentation makes your head hurt so you can ask it to dumb it down to get the core concept and go from there

The negatives

the positives don't justify the environmental externalities of all these AI companies
the positives don't justify the pc hardware/silicone price hikes
shoehorning this into everything is capital R retarded.
AI is a fucking bubble keeping the Us economy inflated instead of letting it crash like it should have a while ago
other than a paid product like copilot there is simply very little commercially viable use-case for all this public cloud infrastructure other than targeting with you more ads, that you can't block because it's in the text output of it.

Overall I wish the AI bubble burst already

I like to mention how he stole the best known melody from a Hungarian artist for one of his songs, that song was IIRC the first Hungarian song to make it out from behind the iron curtain to the west thanks to Scorpions

It's a double edged sword in that for some people this is meaningless bullshit, in that they are struggling to pay for groceries, there is nowhere to lower their standards to.

On the other hand I have watched quite a bit of financial audit videos by caleb hammer, and have seen plenty of statistics that shows that simply put lots of people especially Americans are caught up in consumerism and live beyond their means for either status, or because that's where they get their gratification from.

The solution is to accept that no matter what you buy you will be only happy for a fleeting moment, better to embrace minimalism and fuck consumerism, it's also better for the planet, not just your wallet.

Fellowship of the ring extended cut ads to the story and makes it better.

The two towers extended cut is about 50-50 adding to it to making it worse ratio

The return of the king extended cut additions are straight up trash

The AI explosion isn't just hurting the prices of computers and consoles – it's coming for TVs and audio tech too

My TV channels now come in through an app and just recently it started working on my Nvidia shield, still I can't really disconnect the net from my samsung tv because explaining to my father how to use the tv app is already hard, he would not handle using it through the nvidia shield.
