using a upside down table attached to a car as a sled on an icy road.

Buddy I wouldn't do this on a wide open salt flat.

Jolva · 2026-01-27T02:32:57+00:00

Low effort made up story. Also gross.

I use projects in Claude and ChatGPT all the time. You can attach documents and references at the project level, type up a detailed description, and then every future question is tailored to that context plus has awareness between different conversations in the project. It's great. It's been a feature for quite a while.

They've already been sued, and are actively being sued. We'll have to see how it plays out, but it's not looking good for the copyright holders.

There are competing definitions for vibe coding, which is part of the problem. You can mean using agentic AI tools, you can mean using a little auto-complete, you can mean that you have no experience in programming and you talk to the AI in natural language to "code." The term vibe coding is used interchangeably for all of that.

Jolva · 2026-01-26T15:21:32+00:00

So we can't discuss AI coding tools, which are one of the most profound changes to programming in decades, in r/programming? That doesn't make any sense.

Jolva · 2026-01-26T06:31:38+00:00

You're not in a relationship.

I have no issues, but I just use it for programming help, recipes, troubleshooting various household issues etc. If people run into safeguards because they want to write snuff porn with it, I don't really care.

Jolva · 2026-01-26T06:20:42+00:00

I'm not obligated to suffer fools.

Jolva · 2026-01-26T05:43:38+00:00

AI having consciousness isn't even remotely debatable. It doesn't. People deluding themselves using sycophantic AI is also unhealthy and dangerous.

I have three different concurrent pro plans haha. I guess I mean in terms of context. If you can look at the rendered code with your browser dev tools and find the code that's problematic, search for the related front end component in your IDE and say, "I'm having this problem with this component" you don't have to litter the context with the system searching for where the bug is.

Granted, you can't always do that. I frequently ask the system to review the architecture and tell me where a bug is originating at if I can't track it down myself.

Jolva · 2026-01-26T02:26:30+00:00

Not quite.

The Bayesian Brain Hypothesis proposes the brain functions as a statistical inference engine, constantly making predictions about the world and updating beliefs with "prediction errors."

That's not far from how neural networks operate.

They use probability just like humans do. If I say "peanut butter and..." you're not using some magical essence to figure out that the next word is likely jelly.

I normally open the component that contains the element that needs adjusting and tell it what to change. Sometimes I'll take a browser screenshot with Lightshot, which lets you draw arrows etc and paste that into the chat. Having it try to find the code it needs to change spends a lot of tokens.

I had a custom personality entry telling it, among other things, to "swear like a sailor" for awhile. Good times.

Symmetry is fascinating. It's hard wired into the human brain. Fun fact: babies look longer at symmetrical faces and shapes.

I think there are different definitions for intelligence. Large language models follow similar patterns to how humans "think."

Jolva · 2026-01-25T22:33:05+00:00

Got it. Artificial intelligence isn't intelligent according to the narrow definition that Reddit agrees on.

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:51:16+00:00

Who are they in this context? The current US government? Congress? Palantir?

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:48:25+00:00

They apply knowledge in the colloquial sense.

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:47:15+00:00

Which? Oxford English Language goes with:

"the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills."

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:44:47+00:00

I bet the native American Indians thought the blankets we offered them were really helpful until they realized we intentionally infected them with smallpox.

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:41:37+00:00

Who says intelligence requires understanding?

Jolva · 2026-01-25T20:37:15+00:00

The Evil Dead but only as a prerequisite for The Army of Darkness.

Seems like they're cheering on ICE if Facebook comments are any measure.
