I’m sorry, what exactly do you think this conversation is about if not using AI for code generation?

No, I want worker protections, regulatory enforcement, and broad public distrust of the exploitative owner class who will use AI to extract more wealth while destroying the environment we all live in.
Patronizing “AI” systems is collaboration with the worst garbage of the human race, the robber barons who are comfortable killing people for quarterly profits.

So don’t accept code that is shit. Have decent PR process. Accountability is still on human.
If this is necessary then there is, in point of fact, a “problem with keeping code quality when using AI”.

Every person in every industry in a rush to replace the work of creative people with output from machine learning models can fuck right off.
Every consumer who is content with products made by such people can also fuck right off.

there is no problem in keeping code quality while using AI
This opinion is contradicted by basically everyone who has attempted to use models to generate useful code which must interface with existing codebases. There are always quality issues, it must always be reviewed for functional errors, it rarely interoperates with existing code correctly, and it might just delete your production database no matter how careful you try to be.

If you want your tea to actually be drinkable and not taste like just bitter water, you don’t use boiling water. A proper electric kettle allows you to set the water temperature to 85, 90 or 95°C.

Personally I think that every mistake is a teaching opportunity. In this context, rather than try to sweep the racism under the rug of history as quickly and quietly as possible, I think changes should be made but in a way that invites people (especially children) to ask questions about the background of the traditions and why those representations of persons of color are problematic and should be changed. Without this it just looks like an attempt to cover up and deny the existence of the past firms of discrimination, which especially does a disservice to people experiencing present forms of discrimination.
And also, maybe, dealing with these things should not be fast or easy.
Nothing about this is imaginary, because in some ways these problems haven’t changed much. There is value in spending time on it in the present.
All of that said, I am a white guy from North America, not a POC from the Netherlands, so my input is just an opinion.

the last twenty years or so there is a different battle going on between team “Dutch tradition” and team “kick out zwarte Piet”. Both of these last two teams are obnoxious, and would choose confrontation over dialogue every day of the week. This has resulted in a conflict with no end,
Social conflicts like this are never about solutions but about performance, for the sake of getting attention. Ending the conflict would end the attention.
where it would have been easy to phase out the blackface character with no fuss in a short time.
Hmm, by removing Piet and thus hiding the traditional representation of black people, or by whitewashing him?
- Comment on YSK Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, diplomats, government officials. Everyone was terrified. 1 week ago:
There’s a pretty good Behind the Bastards episode on Stahlin. Basically he was an ultra-paranoid drunk that forced his cabinet members to get drunk with him on a regular basis, which pretty much ruined any potential for effective government in the USSR.
Russia has a strong-man fetish which even the Bolsheviks couldn’t overcome. For all the post-revolution ideology and communist rhetoric, they still just want a Tsar.

- Comment on Why do all text LLMs, no matter how censored they are or what company made them, all have the same quirks and use the slop names and expressions? 2 weeks ago:
Trained on a corpus of messages written primarily by the people who spend the most time using the Internet to talk to their friends… teenagers.
Imagine dumping the entire content of Snap, Instagram, Kik, Facebook messenger, etc, into a blender and attempting to derive a style of speech from it. The most impressive thing about these LLMs is that they’re coherent.

Video shared by WLKY showed the left engine ablaze as the aircraft tried to lift off.
That’s weird. Did the sensors fail to recognize the fire, or did the crew know about it and decide it was too late to abort the takeoff?
