@ngaylinn@tech.lgbt corporate is using LLM for everything now... Was stunned at that self driving car paper where they attacked the L(V)LM doing the decisions with a sign "Proceed" to ignore traffic signs / run over people. This could be easily solvable with other more deterministic approaches, but behold the car would stop and say "Please take over, human, I found an unanalyzable situation" instead of just YOLO'ing the driving to get money payer to destination Carmageddon-style... https://arxiv.org/pdf/2510.00181

@ngaylinn@tech.lgbt and I'm still salty about how information technology was all about efficiency (computation, storage, energy, ...)... Then the JS bubble came along and every major website is now >200MB over 20 external caching providers with 1200 packages to determine whether a String is uppercase or lowercase. Now we are throwing a continent-sized amount of connected slot-machines, that mimic human behaviour they were trained on from Reddit, and whose world-model is just a distance function on everything, instead of finding an elegant and efficient solution... :(
