Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

@datarama @corbin The Go compiler requires reproducible builds based on a small set of well-defined inputs, if the LLM cannot give the same answer for the same question each time it is asked, then it is not compatible with use in the Go compiler. This includes optimizations -- the bits should be identical. #golang
Indeed, this is also the case for anything packaged with #Nix; we have over 99% reproducibility and are not planning on giving that up. Also, Nix forbids network access during compilation; there will be no clandestine queries to OpenAI.
@corbin I got a 96GB laptop just so I could run (some) LLMs w/o network access, I'm sure that will be standard by 2025.🤪
Let me know @corbin@defcon.social if you actually get LLMs to produce useful code locally. I've done maybe four or five experiments and they've all been grand disappointments. This is probably because I'm not asking questions easily answered by Stack Overflow or existing GitHub projects; LLMs can really only model the trite, not the novel.
