Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash

  Being a developer, I don’t care if someone else uses my code. Code is like a brick. By itself it has little value, the real value lies on how it is used. If I find an optimal way to do something, my only wish is to make it available to as much people as possible. For the betterment of humanity.

    Sure, but that’s just your view.

    And also not how LLMs work.

    They gobble up everything and cause unreadable code. Not learning.

  Tbh all programmers have been copy pasting from each other forever. The middle step of searching stack overflow or GitHub for the code you want is simply removed

    That’s not what an LLM is doing is it.

    Exactly. If someone has already come up with an optimal solution why the hell would I reimplement it. My real problems are not with LLMs themselves but rather the sourcing of the training data and the power usage. If I could use an “ethically sourced” llm locally I’d be mostly happy. Ultimately LLMs are also only good for code specifically. Architecture or things that require a lot of thought like data pipelines I’ve found AI to be pretty garbage at when experimenting

  Lutris is GPL-licenced, so isn’t it the opposite of stealing?

  • wholookshere@piefed.blahaj.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    LLMs have stolen works from more than just artists.

    ALL of public repositories at a minimum have been used as training, regardless of licence. including licneses that require all dirivitive work be under the same license.

    so there’s more than just lutris stollen.

      So he’s a badass Robinhood pirate that steals code from corporations and gives it to the people?

        The fuck you talking about.

        Using a tool with billions of dollars behind it robinhood?

        How is stealing open source prihcets code regardless of license stealing fr corporation’s?

    No, the LLM was trained on other code (possibly including Lutris, but also probably like billions of lines from other things)
