The only reasonable position is that this technology should not be used or deployed under any circumstance by anybody for any purpose, because the makers of this technology are actively working to make any kind of normal assessment of risks and opportunities impossible.

This is why being "nuanced" about OpenAI and LLMs is useless. They are engaged in a propaganda campaign to muddy the waters and disinform people. They want you to think "oh, maybe in this special case, oh maybe under these circumstances".

This PR (on the OCaml github repo) has been going around as an example of LLM bros actively attacking software development as a practice, but I think the obvious systemic flaw you can see on this thread is wasting time debating/reviewing slop

Other than the fact that seven (7!) of the authors of that paper work for/with OpenAI, how do we even know that they're not in the same state of mind as the guy who did this?: bsky.app/profile/brun...

It's remarkable because they think advertising lingo like this will get through peer review: "If we had had these interpretations and the recommended next experimental plan from GPT-5 Pro, we would have resolved or hypothesized the mechanistic insights within 19 minutes upon data analysis."

One of the many joys of using AI for programming is the creation of huge PRs on complex topics that the authors barely understand, but still suggest "because they work". Here's a great example from #OCaml github.com/ocaml/ocaml/...

Kudos to OCaml's maintainers for handling this so gracefully.
