They really couldn't have been clearer that (a) the task was designed for a human to ramp up on the codebase, therefor it's simply defacto invalid for an AI to do it (b) the technical merits were empirically weak (citing benchmark

I feel like we're talking in circles here. I'll just restate that I think that attempting to convince people of your position is better than not attempting to convince people of your position when your goal is to convince people o

> Writing a hitpiece with AI because your AI pull request got rejected seems to be the definition of bad faith. Well, for one thing, it seems like the AI did that autonomously. Regardless, the author of the message said that it was for o

I think this classification of "trolls" is sort of a truism. If you assume off the bat that someone is explicitly acting in bad faith, then yes, it's true that engaging won't work. That said, if we say "when has eng

The author obviously disagreed, did you read their post? They wrote the message explaining in detail in the hopes that it would convey this message to others, including other agents. Acting like this is somehow immoral because it "legi

I think I did justify it but I'll try to be clearer. When you refuse to engage you will fail to convince - "fuck off" is not argumentative or rhetorically persuasive. The other post, which engages, was both argumentative and

What exactly is the goal? By laying out exactly the issues, expressing sentiment in detail, giving clear calls to action for the future, etc, the feedback is made actionable and relatable. It works both argumentatively and rhetorically. Say

Can you elaborate a bit on what "working correctly" would look like? I have made use of agents, so me saying "they worked correctly for me" would be evidence of them doing so, but I'd have to know what "correct

Yeah, although I wonder if a soul.md with seemingly benign words like "Aggressively pursue excellent contributions" might accidentally lead to an "Aggressive" agent rather than one who is, perhaps, just highly focused (a

This is all explained in detail in multiple places linked in the article. There were multiple reasons. 1. The performance gains were unclear - some things got slower, some got faster. 2. This was deemed as a good "intro" issue, so

As with most things with AI, scale is exactly the issue. Harassing open source maintainers isn't new. I'd argue that Linus's tantrums where he personally insults individuals/ groups alike are just one of many such exampl

Yeah I mean this goes further than a Linus tantrum but "this person is publicly shaming me as part of an open source project" is something devs have often celebrated. I'm not happy about it and it's clearly a new capabil

The assertion was that they're the bot owner. They denied this and explained the situation. Continuing to link to their profile/ real name and accuse them of something they've denied feels like it's completely unwarrante

This is state by state, city by city. In some places, a mayor has broad powers over agencies, taxes, etc. That isn't quite the case in NYC. It's up to the state to delegate these powers, just as the federal government delegates po

It is, of course. What they mean, I assume , is that it would reach a tipping point where intervention would be more broadly supported. Virtually everyone is willing to say "that's bad" with regards to something happening so

There are a number of ways. Obviously Dropbox would be one case of "early and didn't fail" that could have been "early and failed", and we would have heard about it.

I'm not disagreeing, just soliciting. Does anyone have examples of products that failed in the early stages because their implementation was too trivial?
