Are Large Language Models Really AI?

Everywhere will be India in 100 years.

The UK, EU, US, Canada are all doing/done trade deals that allow unlimited Indian workers to come in.

The level big corp will goto to import a serf class is crazy.

Before they were happy just building factories in india to undercut western workers, now they just import them all to work here instead.

Algorithms have been used to drive engagement for a few decades now. They are powerful enough to produce addiction.

Who needs AI? Or meaningful for that mater? Addiction is what counts.

Earlier I received a video recommendation about a guy criticizing AI gen in arts, but obviously the guy was an emocionado, and started to shoot his white knight bullets in the AI.

The entire video didnt bring a single new thing that wasnt mentioned by people criticizing AI. I feel like we reached the plateau of new arguments in each side. At this point, it is not a discussion anymore. It is just tribalism.

The only “new” thing I can bring when someone start this discussion near me is: “lets talk about this again in 100 years”.

If you art or game generated by AI is criticized mostly by prejudice, maybe in the future people will have another posture about AI, and your refused work can be accepted them.

It isnt your haters or your buddies the judges.

Time is.

Just wait, and we will see.

Earlier I watched a video about a guy saying how CS big names have been adhering to vibe coding.

His example were footages of Linus Torvald using AI, and a blog post from the creator of ruby on rails defending Ai usage.

Then he mentioned the supposed big one in terms of coding, the Claude Opus 4.5.

I checked some footage of people using it. Feels like it not just accept the prompt, but willingly ask for more information before spitting the code.

Also, it lays out all the steps to achieve the expected product.

The end result is still subpar, but having an AI writing a viable walkthrough for a development is a big thing, at least it has a value as a benchmark and/or help with cold start.

I still feel awkward using text to generate products. Maybe if we could draw stuffs like architecture, and it could go from there, I would feel more confortable in using AI

Due to layoffs I got some C++ code bases dumped in my lap (I would never claim to know C++) I've been using that model to support them, it probably gets 80-90% correct out of the gate, then I slam my head against the wall to get the rest of it working.

So yeah its helpful and do a lot of the tedious stuff, i wouldn't want anyone clueless using it because the moment it does something wrong they'll have no where to go.

It does a decent job refactoring code too.

Does a great job documenting code.
