Frankly, not sure where to begin with this one. Some here have already pointed out how it can easily be trained to produce racist/biased data which is a big red flag to begin with. But am I the only one thinking about how this deep-learning, AI algorithm is going to render millions obsolete at the behest of capital? As has been the case with almost everything developed under capitalism , what a marvelous discovery that will in all likelihood be used for nothing but exploitation. And do I even have to mention how our leaders are geriatric and couldn’t regulate this shit to save their lives?
Unless this is somehow made open-source (and soon), we’re fucked.
i mean it's not learning, except in a metaphorical sense. learning is a thing that people do. it's able to answer common beginner programming questions because it's regurgitating answers it's been fed multiple times. that doesn't speak to its ability to solve novel complex problems now, or with more "learning." We've seen a progression from pure nonsense to syntactically valid code, but it doesn't necessarily follow that the next step is correct code.
