It's a case of someone putting out candy for halloween and someons running away with the bowl screeming! Well you put i out there!

I hope to see an appology from the author of the fork who's hopefully understanding that what they did is not ok.

Or maybe not, I don't know, I had AI write that comment. In any case for anyone who missed what led up to this AI policy here's a reference:

Well obviously the manager struggled to read and understand it and also struggled to read the AI results. The clear root cause is utter incompetence on the managers part. Any feedback they wanted to give could be given, but you NEVER pass along modified documents as though they where what another author had created AI or not. If you don’t like it you can provide feedback or ask to coauthor another document, you never just append TFTFY with changes and send it along with the original author standing to take the consequences of whatever you cooked up. It’s just complete incompetence on the part of the manager.

A majority of Americans want Donald Trump removed https://www.newsweek.com/majority-americans-want-trump-compl...

And a significant portion of the opposition wish he was dead.

It’s not about “minority vs majority” it’s the very biased phrasing of “we should bomb Iran because people want regime change” Imagine if Iran was bombing USA because the majority of Americans want regime change.

I feel like it’s easy to understand what’s motivating these individuals to take that stance.

There is no doubt that if this goes to court you are only hurting your own chances at any reasonable defense by deciding on mirroring the naming like that. And for what? Saying you created an opensource product with no tie to their branding would convey the same effect.

The original code is part of claude's training material. With that intepretation of the LGPL AI is incapable of writing non LGPL derivatives. I like that interpretation.

If the content is human written and you check your sources there is no way for AI to “accidentally” seep in. Sure you can use an AI tool to find links to places you should check and you can then go and verify sources. That’s obviously not what happened.

You might say "but that's nothign new" but that is what makes it news because Brewdogs campaigns where exactly focues on selling cutomers the idea that they where inf fact something new.

The fouders are rich any any customers who invested is left with nothing. That's the news.

I know the times are changing and people now take it for granted that a cab driver might be selling heisenbergs securities while he drives around customers, for someone to pick up a bit of crypto gambling while they wait to reach their destination. But it used to be that financial investment was somewhat protected exactly to avoid these types of companies defrauding non-investment savy customers, but brewdog did just that. They claimed that getting a couple of shares along with your beer was ok because it was a new type of company sticking it to the man, but at the end of the day they wheren't punks they where just capitalists putting on customes to scam as much money from their customers as possible.

There is nothing dubious about it. It’s providing verifiable value. Tasks that we would have set for developers or UX’ers last year are solved by it. At 1/50 of the cost, and with great scaling because the tasks are solved faster than you would even be able to explain them to a human and we can initiate 5-10 parallel tracks without having to onboard new people.

And sure it might not make sense to give a 200$/m AI tool to a worker you are paying 800$ but when we have devs that are paid 8000$/m then it’s great return on value to have one person being 10 times as productive at 8200$ instead of spending 80000$/m on ten developers just to be able to say we are doing authentic AI free artisanal software development.

That seems to be exactly what succesfull acounts are doing. They go a year or two creating content in a theme and then find that one hook that makes people stay a second to see what heir content is and then their entire personality and content becomes that one hook repeated until naseum and no matter what they do to try to escape it it's impossible since they don't control their content exposure newcommers will aways be flooded in a repeat storm of that same hook, and people who get tired will move on no matter what. So the only reliable way of trying to "pivot" to anything else is to create a new account, but that's going to get you back at the start with no guarentee that you'll have another hit in the next 2 years, so they just accept their fate as "the cucumber guy" or "the funny outfit girl" and then ride that as far towards the sunset as possible.
