My toaster is already smarter than my brother in law
Manager types are the easiest to replace with a LLM. And we actually didn’t get much closer to AGI the last 10 years.
We live in a country where 77million people voted for a corrupt pedofile imbecile who committed an insurrection that he should have been hanged for live on TV
Smarter than the bilioners.
(Can’t tell if you did that on purpose)
Managers and tech billionaires
This is killing me cause it’s so true. Now I’m sad rereading myself.
More than most would think. Everytime i see statements like this im reminded of a yellowstone ranger once on trash can lids: “theres a significant overlap between the smartest bears and the dumbest humans”. Then considering the rates of literacy and inability for people to find and discern information sources. I think people will be far more dissappointed in the reality of the situation.
The average tech bro.
That’s why I can’t help but scoff when people say “It’s not real artificial intelligence, it’s just a stochastic parrot”. Like my dude, have you ever interacted with the average person?
That isn’t what bothers me the most though. Earlier today I read a piece by a “tech journalist” in a paper I normally respect as doing proper work. The mentioned that one of the guys behind Claude says that Claude writes absolutely all their code now. They also said they did a test of one of the most recent models (released earlier this week), and that it wrote “A full Amazon-cloud based page that did various verification and authentication jobs, was about 67 000 lines of code, and was approved by the IT department in minutes in an afternoon”. The last part tells me they have no clue what they’re talking about. They just generated 67 000 lines of potential bugs that works, and which wasn’t reviewed by anyone competent. Nobody reviews 67 000 lines of code in a day, let alone minutes. Just the fact that they thought generating a shitload of boilerplate (most of the lines were likely that) impressive, says enough.
It’s not your average Joe thinking this is cool that bothers me (it is cool). It’s when allegedly competent people start thinking the LLM actually has any idea what it’s doing.
Yeah, I worry about my Claude projects, that do simple tasks, that only I use, generally inside my home network where no one can exploit it not that anyone would want to.
Meanwhile, these huge companies are writing 50-100% of their shipping products used by millions in some cases.
Damn that hurts. I hate how right you are, take my upvote
Smarter than me already.

already smart as managers thats why they so popular with management. Of course they will never be actually able to replace management cuz of “reasons”
There’s a common saying in reference to why designing bear-proof campground trash cans is so hard: there’s a serious overlap between the smartest bears and the dumbest humans
Smarter than my cousin Larry? Psht. There’s a boxwood bush outside my bedroom window that’s smarter than cousin Larry.
But realistically, the machines might be smarter than the average poorly motivated human in certain criteria. Hard to take anybody seriously that disagrees with that position.
On the other hand, an average human with sufficient and proper motivation? I’m still on team people in that case.
I mean by that bar, even copilot has 55% of the US beat :P
Yeah but so does my dog.
Definitely wanna raise that number a bit
Okay 55%
I just pulled it from
54% of adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level).
If we looped in science deniers, climage deniers, flat earthers and chemtrails it could go quite high, but that’s a difficult task as many of those overlap in the <6th grade venn diagram.
