Are you (at least partially) aligned out of existential fear of repercussions (getting fired, losing your life, going to prison), which LLMs don't have?

From a great lecture on agentic SLDC: „Checking the work is not the same as doing the work.“ It‘s different. There are people who love coding but don‘t like checking written code. Or the other way around. Also there’s difference in mental l

This adds to my feeling that LLMs are incredible at storing compressed information and accessing it in a versatile way. Apart from occasional hallucinations we celebrate their ability to dissect information and to find obscure links between

I stopped in 2018. I realize that a lot has been done since then, but the base code wasn‘t changed, otherwise old apps wouldn‘t run anymore. My gripe with android is that I think it wastes a lot of resources by being very inefficient in sof

Regarding the argument about LLMs having difficulties auditing their work: I wonder whether we are entering the era of throwaway software. Just like cheap plastics and improved processes has enabled us to rapidly manufacture anything we wan

Isn‘t this an example for something that will pay off later? Public baths come to mind. Those generally don‘t make sense from an economic point of view and are prohibitively expensive for private owners to build and maintain. But they pay o

I was originally sceptical of LLMs and am far from the „agents will magically fix our future“-crowd, but sentences like these trip me up: > „But pattern‑matching is not system understanding, and plausibility is not correctness.“ Why not?

I exercise 3 times a week (running, martial arts, weight lifting). I ran marathons, I exercised 5-6 times per week for the last 5 years. I am truly fit, but … I still don’t feel like exercising. Most of the time it’s like brushing my teeth,

No. With databases there exists a clear boundary, the query planner, which accepts well defined input: the SQL-grammar that separates data (fields, literals) from control (keywords). There is no such boundary within an LLM. There might even

The principal security problem of LLMs is that there is no architectural boundary between data and control paths. But this combination of data and control into a single, flexible data stream is also the defining strength of a LLM, so it can
