If being "clearly at odds" with your values is not enough to stop you from using the slopbot, your values aren't worth much, are they now?

"Although using the big AI platforms, as the study notes, is clearly at odds with the solidarity economy’s values, the lack of an alternative means many organizations within the sector are using it anyway..."

The alternative is NOT F'ING USING IT!

If you can’t write code without a particular IDE or LLM, it’s because you don’t know how to write code.

Learn! It’s fun to learn how to code.

#Apple Doesn’t Want You to Worry About the New #Apple Watch's Listening Features

The new #AppleWatch includes several “intelligent” listening features that have #privacy and #security baked in. But the protections can’t change the facts of what the tools do.

From what I read, they were talking about doing LLM-based code review, not code authoring. This involves a different set of problems, which are more subtly.

They acknowledged that the LLMs produced a lot of inaccurate and misleading feedback, but claimed that the good reports in the middle made this an acceptable tradeoff. This would be true, if developer time were unbounded.

The problem is, with the available effort, you are never going to be able to eliminate all bugs during code review. Even if you do formal verification, you only avoid bugs that aren't present in your specification and your specification complexity is such that it's pretty much guaranteed to contain bugs.

Even if you ignore the ethical issues surrounding LLMs, introducing a tool with a high false-positive rate into code review comes with a number of problems:

It distracts attention away from addressing feedback from deterministic tooling. Or, if your commits are gated on these, you move time away from fixing backlog bugs to reviewing the output from the LLM to find the things that aren't false positives.
It means human code reviewers will pay less attention, because there are already a lot of comments and some of them will be ones humans want to do.
It causes people to ignore the real bugs that it finds because they're hidden in the middle of false positives. We saw this 20 years earlier with Coverity: it found real bugs, but it also found a lot of not-actually-bug things. We recently found a bug in a certified MISRA C component that was hidden because someone had explicitly silenced the static analyser warning about it because they thought it was a false positive. The more common false positives are, the more likely people are to miss the real ones.

And all of that adds up to a project that doesn't think it has a duty of care to its users. And that's fine, unless you're a project that's telling everyone to switch to you because of security.

@Xtreix @rhelune allowing LLM contributions invites security holes - legitimizes the environment,culture&reality destroying surveillancec machine that is generative AI. And it encourages deskilling of an entire generation of security researchers ultimately placing all the security work (and trust associated with it) in the hands of the richest companies on the planet. I use FLOSS to escape the control of these people.

@zzt And if your own project is pro AI and pro cryptocurrency the slop pit that is github will still be happy to have you.

grapheneOS is now falsely claiming to be affected by the codeberg ban on cryptocurrency projects because they take donations in monero

of course these shitheads have a problem with codeberg banning slop and cryptocurrency projects, why wouldn’t they

I was just reflecting this morning on the push to integrate LLMs into the software development process. Thanks to LLMs, everything now is much more expensive (devices, energy, food), as well as the code. Every unit of code now costs many multiples of what it used to, and there is more of it.

@ambiguous_yelp They proudly tooted about starting LLM reviews the day before yesterday. That caused an outrage because why use GrapheneOS at all if you don't care about security?! Can't point you to it because I'm blocked. Can anyone else help?

This.

The “AI” doom narrative is really getting some traction this time around. Both got extensive coverage in Icelandic media and I’m seeing it spread far and wide among the web’s pseudo-intelligentsia. “Oh, no! These people know what they’re talking about so it must be true!”

It’s exhausting
