Comment on Linux creator Linus Torvalds puts foot down on anti-AI comments
Paradachshund@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
AI is a tool, just like other tools we use. And it’s clearly a useful one.
It may not have been that “clearly” even just a year ago, but it’s no longer in question today.
This is such a massive red flag comment. If anything it’s become increasingly clear in the last year how problematic the tech is…
He follows that up by saying people should make the tools help maintainers not harm them, but suggests no means to do so. This is so blasé and hand wavy, especially when he’s responding to people complaining about how it’s making their jobs harder. “Just use the tools better”. Gee, thanks Linus.
Hiro8811@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago He made his stance pretty clear in the video he made with LTT, I agree with him that Machine Learning could be useful but the current LLMs we use are way too power hungry and too complex. I think in the future smaller and more specific models that you could run locally are the way to go.
Also they have pretty big donations, they could hire some more people
Yeah agreed. It’s pretty wild what the tech can do at the best of times, but it’s just way too half baked on many levels right now to rely on.
He also inadvertently exposed he’s using Claude Mythos, and likely in Project Glasswing:
Found dissonance here sweet.
