  • As the person who replied to you rightfully said, the persons you decry are mostly French, you said so yourself. The people you want to be “locked out” of the country cannot be deported - which country would they go to if they’re French and French only?

    Your original point is wrong. Controlling immigration will do nothing to solve the insecurity RN voters perceive, because the North Africans they hate so much will still remain in France.








  • A hammer doesn’t replace a carpenter. That’s what I meant when I said that this won’t replace us: new tools are nice but they won’t automate everything. There are some jobs that have been completely replaced with advancements in technology. However, most of them have just gotten simpler and have evolved.

    I do think LLMs are important, but I’m just laughing at the hype surrounding it, and all the grandiloquent claims made by tech bros.


  • The tech is interesting, no doubt. It’s very effective as a tool to generate text nobody reads, like the marketing speak on your random startup website. It still isn’t efficient on things where what is generated actually matters.

    Your example with customer service is news to me, thanks. On my end, I remember the bad experience customers had with Air Canada. We’ll see how this grows in the future.

    I had a discussion last week with people saying it’ll automate software engineering, which is not a given. You say “yet”, but I’m skeptical it’ll ever work. I can see it designing UI better than a non-specialist, but the flaws in quality means I can’t trust it anywhere near my code, even though I can see a future for it as a fancy static analyzer.
