Funny thing is, this has helped me enormously in my career. Everyone else is simply trudging along on assumptions and I swoop in with a dozen edge cases that we simply aren’t handling.

Schooling beats a specific kind of “curiosity” into you, while beating out a much more general “what if this assumption isn’t the case.”

Care to elaborate, or are you just saying things to get a reaction?

There are also plenty of people who wear glasses who don’t need them. It’s weird to act like Plano lenses don’t exist.

O.o Should I be concerned that this is surprising?

Let people like what they like. If it’s a fad, it’ll pass but until people are legitimately hurting themselves or others over it, just let people enjoy things they enjoy.

It really depends. A local machine is guaranteed to not have issues if the general internet goes down. It’s also going to reduce latency considerably.

There are many reasons to have a dev box local to the demonstration. Just because they wouldn’t deploy it that way in production doesn’t mean they wouldn’t deploy a demo in that same way.

If this was a tech demo, it tracks that they wouldn’t be using overpowered hardware. Why lug around a full server when they can just load up the software on a laptop, considering they weren’t expecting hundreds of invokes at the exact same moment.

That’s what I mean though. Convincing users to not use LLMs as a way to reduce CO2 is a fools errand. It will never work. So we should focus on something that can actually move the needle, like speeding up the move to a fully green grid.

Reducing CO2 emissions by not doing LLM slop is apparently off the table.

Not to be argumentative, but has this ever been something the consumer market has done with an emerging “core” technology? I don’t see how this was ever realistically on the table.

AI slop is an unfortunate fact of life at this point. If it’s inevitable, we may as well make it as not terrible as possible.

I’m sure there are some out there, but I doubt many could manage one on one.

Sometimes yeah, but the majority of major ones use a ranking system and taking care of your DMARC and such is usually enough to rank you into the not spam category.

Would they have done this if there wasn't a public backlash? I would bet money the answer is no.

You can’t really do more than make a random claim here. I could counter it by saying “I would be money the answer is yes. but that’s just as useful a statement.

What were the TOS violations?

If you’re expecting a laundry list of email addresses and each individual violation, you’re not likely to get that from any company.
