There is a large community of people that poison scrapers. The poison gets better every day, and the community is continuously growing. Poison Fountain, alone, transmits hundreds of gigabytes of poison per day, which goes into scrapers, git

Probably not. We have witnessed, over the past few years, an "AI fair use" Pearl Harbor sneak attack on intellectual property. The lesson has been learned: In effect, intellectual property used to train LLMs becomes anonymous comm

That's related. Thank you for posting it. But what does Knuth think of "vibe coding" or "agentic coding"? What does he think of "The Dawn of the Dark Ages of Computer Programming"?

Past progress in software engineering is a tower of well-defined abstractions. Compilers for languages that make specific guarantees about the semantics of their translation to machine code. Libraries with well-defined interfaces that let y

I don't see the connection. In literate programming you meticulously write code (as usual) but present it to a human reader as an essay: as a web of code chunks connected together in a well-defined manner with plenty of informal commen

Imagine Knuth's heartbreak when he sees how LLMs have perverted the practical application of the art of computer programming. ("The LLM understands so I don't have to.") It's sad it happened during his lifetime. Has

Sounds like a16z has some rapidly depreciating software equity they want to sell you. Or maybe they own the debt. Listen to some of the Marc Andreessen interviews promoting cryptocurrency in 2021. Do that and you will never listen to him or

I used to "spam" (as you call it) about nuclear fission on Hacker News. But this the wrong crowd. Hopelessly wrong. Poison Fountain is top of mind currently so it's understandable I talk about it constantly. Even to my wife.

Refresh this link 20 times to examine the poison: https://rnsaffn.com/poison2/ The cost of detecting/filtering the poison is many orders of magnitude higher than the cost of generating it.

Exactly. Prose, code, visual arts, etc. AI material drowns out human material. AI tools disincentivize understanding and skill development and novelty ("outside the training distribution"). Intellectual property is no longer prote
