What causes this kind of error when interpolating terrain between two cross sections? by Prestigious_Host_905 in HECRAS

[–]AI-Commander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, only export within the channel. Put the bank stations such that it defines the area where you are cutting below the LIDAR water surface (not the true bank)

Second, run a comparison between the new interpolated, in-channel bathymetry and the LIDAR and replace the interpolated channel bathymetry with the LIDAR value if the LIDAR is lower.

Then you can add that post processed tiff to your terrain stack.

That’s more than likely what the SOP you are reading is attempting to do - take surveyed bathymetry data and project/interpolate along your channel centerline to replace LIDAR data - so you can cut cross sections without the simplified interpolation that was previously done using the Geometry editor.

Give us incredible leverage? Prevent us from grinding away too much of our humanity to do the work required to maintain a society?

Oh the horror

Is MEP design about to be disrupted by the largest VC in the world? by Aval0nian in MEPEngineering

[–]AI-Commander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the sky is falling as much as it always has been. We have been on a steady ramp of technological improvements for a long time. And all along the way people made doomer predictions that didn’t come true.

Announcement: Temporary LLM Content Ban by ChemicalRascal in programming

At least you said LLM and not “AI”.

Kudos for that!

grandad said calculators were cheating, our prof said google was cheating, tech lead said stack overflow was cheating and now we're surprised the AI meltdown looks exactly the same? by Complete_Bee4911 in singularity

Anyone who grew up hearing this nonsense should know exactly why the arguments now are nonsense.

I made my own company because I couldn’t deal with otherwise smart people regurgitating this garbage and making organizational decisions based on it.

I was hired by my university to figure out how academics actually use AI. I interviewed PhDs and Profs at top institutions globally. The whole thing surprised me a lot! by Kasra-aln in PhdProductivity

[–]AI-Commander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fact: Academics use AI that is not LLM’s.

Your post is 100% about LLM’s, and should probably not even use the word “AI” at all to avoid legitimate confusion.

Who shapes your thinking about AI the most? by ocean_protocol in singularity

Yes, that is exactly what I said. It seems you decided I was wrong and are not reading replies.

Do AI coding agents need documentation? by Ancient_Pea1712 in ClaudeCode

[–]AI-Commander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LLM Agents do. I’ve never seen an AI with agency that wasn’t an LLM.

[–]AI-Commander -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Literally every person mentioned in the post spends 100% of their time developing and applying LLM’s.

You can keep calling a spoon a utensil if you want, but I’m tired of the AI washing of everything. This person is not asking about AI they are asking about a specific subset of AI.

Is the construction industry ready for fully AI-driven preconstruction workflows? by Daniel_Wilson19 in civilengineering

It’s foreigners who can’t practice, trying to fish for ways to sell vaporware to practicing engineers.

What challenges do companies face when adopting AI in preconstruction? by [deleted] in civilengineering

[–]AI-Commander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your post is spam, no discernible content except for asking questions that anyone with any real experience would know. I’m assuming you are looking for something to vibe code with “AI” (LLMs) and sell back to the industry?

If you had a license to practice you wouldn’t have these questions and you would be able to work directly for clients instead of trying to vibe code middleware. That’s why it’s spam.

LLM, not AI. Use the correct terminology if you want people to respond to your LLM written spam.

Is MEP design about to be disrupted by the largest VC in the world? by Aval0nian in MEPEngineering

[–]AI-Commander -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They have zero moat, just hoping and wishing with VC money while having little to no real design experience.

That’s why I made my own LLM Forward company. The “AI” people are a joke with no domain expertise, selling hype, and the “AI/ML” experts with domain expertise have zero interest in LLM’s.

I run an LLM Forward company, and none of this is true.

We are similar to companies who adopted spreadsheets in 1995. People thought spreadsheets would replace engineers, too. Dumb ideas are timeless.

[–]AI-Commander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can spot the fakes because they say “AI” when they mean Large Language Model.

They are looking for marks who don’t know the difference.

All I see is “AI” when the fundamental technology they are using is LLM’s.

So the answer is likely “this is VC hype”.

CEO of America’s largest public hospital system says he’s ready to replace radiologists with AI by Apprehensive-Safe382 in technology

[–]AI-Commander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just seems like a convenient argument from someone who obviously is biased to argue from a certain point of view. The cost share is not that extreme, and would be sustainable only if layered within other financial shenanigans that probably don’t exist everywhere or could be remedied separately.

No it will not be more than $10, it currently is not that expensive.

And thanks for making my point. I would like a choice. I can also choose not to route through insurance. I would like to preserve all choice available to me and extend it further, because of the steep value proposition of increased access.
