This program doesn't do anything? It is just a bunch of markdown files and a wrapper for LLMs with shell access?
And you're telling me that developing "skills" for this piece of shit is just writing a markdown file with instructions on how to do a thing?
People are mass buying overpriced Mac Mini computers just to play with A COLLECTION OF MARKDOWN FILES?
AI bubble has reached peak insanity.

@SuperDicq I set up a vm and used that and it worked great, people buying a mac for this are retarded
@sun@shitposter.world What do you mean it works great? You're sending a bunch of markdown files to an LLM API. It literally doesn't do anything special.
@SuperDicq @sun it builds its own tools. I had it develop custom things in node and python. The Markdown just tells it how to use the tools it built and what they're for.
@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world Isn't it infinitely more efficient to just share the code with other people instead of just sharing instructions on how to write the code?
Is this what the future is going to be like? No more software? Just every app being a markdown file and everyone running their own vibecoded version of it?
@SuperDicq @sun the future is going to be whatever the hell you want it to be
but there are plenty of apps/tools that have never existed before because nobody thought it was a problem worth solving, or there isn't a good enough product-market-fit
now you can make custom tools pretty easily to solve almost any problem you have. I have a ton of things I've wished for but never had the time to build, and now I can have those things solved quite easily.
It's liberating.

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world I don't think it's very "liberating" to have a proprietary SaaSS API build software for you.
You what is actually liberating? The free software movement where people build code and share it with each other so you don't have to do everything yourself.
@SuperDicq @sun ok where are those free software people at and why aren't they building the shit for me that I want?
oh wait they're not slaves and we shouldn't treat them as such?????
also isn't your proprietary CPU making you anxious?

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world
where are those free software people at and why aren't they building the shit for me that I want?What the fuck are you on about? You're literally using a crapton of free software right now probably that does exactly what you want.
@SuperDicq @sun what about other stuff I want like a web-controlled audiobook player that streams through mpd and icecast and automatically controls my Sonos speakers and after a set timeout stops the audiobook and plays a relaxing sleep sound for me all night?
Where's the open source solution to that?
oh wait there isn't so I've vibe coded my own solution and it fucking rocks
I have dozens of projects like this in the back of my head that I've always wanted but nobody made

@feld@friedcheese.us @sun@shitposter.world And why didn't you write it yourself before?
I have a bunch of personal projects that I work on. It's actually a lot of having to use your brain you know.
@SuperDicq @sun @feld
>And why didn't you write it yourself before?
Because I'm not a programmer by day? Because I don't have the time nor knowledge to dump two evenings and maybe get something partially working?

@phnt@fluffytail.org @sun@shitposter.world @feld@friedcheese.us You're not born as a programmer. You can always become a programmer.
@SuperDicq @sun @feld I don't have the time to do that. I do systems administration, I need to learn whatever the industry throws at me to stay relevant. I have nearly zero interest or motivation to learn 3 different languages for multiple of my use cases. It simply isn't possible and kinda reads as self-entitled.
I would want to contribute more to Pleroma, yet I simply don't have enough brain power for that most of the time. It's like if I said you should learn to become a machinist, so you can work on your cars more. You can always become a machinist.

@phnt @feld @SuperDicq ai is good for contributing to pleroma, I think it's a slightly confusing codebase. not terrible but ai helps a lot for making checklist of everything needed when making changes
@sun @phnt @feld @SuperDicq lain saying it codes as good as them is an indictment of lain being a bad coder, at least until i see a coding model do an actually good job of something in person.
i've been seeing a lot of academic reports that the people who benefit most are simply bad at their jobs, and people who are very good use them very selectively or not at all. after dealing with both beads implementations being steaming piles of trash yesterday i'm not inspired
but i might still be willing to drop 10$ on a GLM sub for a month as one final "hate only in knowledge."
