❝ But I just use AI for boilerplate!" you whimper, clutching your Co-Pilot subscription. Listen to yourself. If you’re writing the same boilerplate every day like some industrial-age cog monkey, automate it yourself. Write a library. Invent a macro. Reclaim some dignity. If AI’s doing your "boring parts", what exactly is left for you to do? Fidget with sliders? Paint by numbers while the inference works it's magic? ❞

I admit I have better things to do this morning than read this, but it's brilliantly funny and soooooo refreshingly on point: https://deplet.ing/the-copilot-delusion/. #LLM #CoPilot #Programming

@ElenLeFoll I was watching a youtube on music and voice generating LLMs. And one interesting point was, the dude trained an LLM with narrators and improved the model some iterations, and it became real good - way better than the public available models trained on scarped and stolen content.

So I assume, it might be possible to create a real good coding assistent, when you train it on real good code - and not just reddit, slashdot and public github projects. But we are not yet there.
