Announcement of the Agda fork by amy@types.pl:

The Agda developers have recently proposed codifying their official stance on LLM-generated contributions: they are "concerned about the negative effects of large language models (LLMs) on many individuals, our society, and our planet", but refuse to take any concrete action to address their own contribution to these.

Other extensions to the type theory are kept despite known inconsistencies (sized types), or being impossible to adopt without complete vertical buy-in (cumulativity, erased cubical), or simply for backwards compatibility (--guarded/@lock). In the best cases, these features are championed by a single maintainer, and keeping them well-tested against the continuous adoption of new features is a struggle when very little code uses them. Our plan is to focus on exactly one variant of the language ("full --cubical"), and to drop support for all the language features which are explicitly deprecated, inconsistent, or simply ill-understood in conjunction with this fragment.

I tried it out using Amélia's library (https://1lab.dev/) to show that free modules are projective. This is known to be equivalent to the axiom of choice and that informed the definition of projective to have mere existence of the lifted homomorphism. It was pretty ergonomic, details regarding homotopy levels were handled by hlevel and universe levels weren't bad. Automatic proof search worked with a sufficiently fleshed out structure

The developer of an LLM image description service for the fediverse has (temporarily?) turned it off due to concerns from a blind person.

Good for them

I've never heard of a function being called entire out of complex analysis. But still, it is zero at i.

Just here to note that @dgerard had a clippy pfp before it was cool

It's hard to come up with analogies for AI because it's so goddamn stupid. It's like if asbestos was flammable.

rsyslog goes "AI first", for what reason? no one knows.

Opening ipython greeted me with this: "Tip: IPython 9.0+ has hooks to integrate AI/LLM completions."

I wish open source projects would stop doing this.

Thanks for the work you do on Newgrounds! This sentence stuck out to me

No more worrying about lack of content or fickle UGC creators

Oh they're just publically advertising their company to be anti-union. Bold.

Yet another LLM guy claiming it solved a problem when in fact it was already solved, with it being told almost exactly where and what to look for. Cold reading for use-after-frees.
