@timnitGebru @emilymbender @pluralistic I just got my first #adhominem attack on #LinkedIn for calling someone on their largely self-promotional #GenAI fanboyism.
So I just quoted Casey Ryback from Under Siege back at him "...we're all puppets in the same sick play". He seemed to take offense at my having a Ph.D. which speaks for itself, really! #grandtheftautocomplete

#TakeTwo lays off its whole Worthless Slop…sorry, I mean, ‘AI’ team.

They just went up in my estimations. #GrandTheftAutocomplete

@iamada Seeing all the big ticket LLMs completely fabricate intellectual property law advice that the UK Intellectual Property Office had already published in a PDF? Priceless. #grandtheftautocomplete

Interesting proof & makes it crystal clear that we’re dealing with GrandTheftAutoComplete: “Claude Code: "Do not produce or reproduce exact song lyrics" - which goes to show some desperate engineer had to try to hide this fact by begging the thing to stop spilling the beans.”

@thelocalstack I have a TODO item to extract my full professional CV on #LinkedIn and prepare it as a #PDF for reasons just like this. #GrandTheftAutoComplete

@sandipb @liberty What about the rampant IP theft (what #GitHub did/are doing is illegal in my country, UK, at English law, #CDPA 1988) and the fact they try to push liability for #GenAI induced IP violations onto the user? You haven't addressed that in your post at all. #GrandTheftAutoComplete It's a cheap trick and just about all retail banks try to do the same. The late Prof. Ross Anderson of the University of Cambridge was vocal on that last point!

Manager: "What we need is a precise way to define what we want the LLM agent to do."

Dev: "Wow, you're right. And you know what you call a precise specification that defines every aspect of a workflow?"

Manager: "What?"

Dev: CODE. IT'S CALLED CODE!
