From decades of experience, quite honestly.
- eviks 10mo agoHow can you have decades of experience in a technology less than a single decade old? Sounds like ones of those HR minimum requirement memes
- droidmonkey 10mo agoDecades of programming and open source experience.
- blibble 10mo agoyou have decades of experience of reviewing code produced at industrial scale to look plausible, but with zero underlying understanding, mental model or any reference to ground truth? glad I don't work where you do! it's actually even worse than that: the learning process to produce it doesn't care about correctness at all, not even slightly the only thing that matters is producing plausible enough looking output to con the human into pressing "accept" (can you see why people would be upset about feeding output generated by this process into a security critical piece of software?)
- phoerious 10mo agoThe statement that correctness plays no role in the training process is objectively false. It's untrue for text LLMs, even more so for code LLMs. Correct would be that the training process and the architecture of LLMs cannot guarantee correctness.
