It’s crazy to me YouTube is okay with hosting ads they get no cut from in the first place.

Many ransomware groups of today operate in the same way a legal tech startup would. It’s a large organization with clear goals, not just some guys fooling around. It’s a funny thought tho.

> One major problem I see with the use of AI is that it will prevent people from building an understanding of .

I don’t really think this is a problem. AI is a tool, you still learn while using it. If you actually read, debug and maintain the produced code, which I consider a must for complex production systems, it’s not really that different compared to reading documentation and using Stack Overflow (i.e., coding the way it was done 10 years ago). It’s just much more efficient and it makes problems easier to miss. Standard practices of AI assisted development are slowly forming and I expect them to improve over time.

You can do this on a Mac as well tho, right? So that 128 GB unified memory becomes cache for very fast 1+ TB Apple SSD.

New comment by gloxkiqcza in "White-collar AI apocalypse narrative is just another bullshit"

gloxkiqcza — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 09:58:14 +0000

In some ways AI sounds almost utopian. I theory it could redistribute manpower more evenly between small and large businesses, allowing them to compete more fairly and improving the efficiency of capitalism (the idealistic model, not the real world state). However, than you remember that the AI tech is currently almost fully in control by the big tech (and its next generation) and you have to ask whether they’ll be able to sabotage that improvement because they will do their worst for sure since liberating the market is not beneficial to them. Let’s hope that despite all odds and current trends we actually reach a state where AI is possible to run on-prem/locally and there are still SOTA models at least as open as they are today.

In a pure LLM I agree. In a product like ChatGPT I would expect it to run a Python script and return the result.

Yeah, this seems like an obvious solution. If possible, move your workout to before work.

That stands today. In the future the SOTA might move to where models of today are no longer competitive and there no open-weight alternatives available anymore. Let’s hope it’s not the case.
