Prism is neither near nor far sighted issues.

Prism is a muscle problem, where the actual muscles of your eyes get weaker because you arent using them as often to focus on objects far away, so they lose flexibility.

Akin to how if you sit in a chair all day and arent actively stretching purposefully, you lose flexibility in the rest of your body too.

As far as I know, focusing on objects has no impact on eye shape changes, its just genetic on which way your eyes start to squish/stretch as you get older. Thats just a byproduct of the fact our face and tissues change as we get older.

We would have never said “my search query was ai generated”

It sorta sounds like you just have no clue how things work.

Search Engines use whats called semantic search on a vector database to find string values that start with what you typed, for suggesting their autocomplete options as you type.

Zero AI is involved in that process.

You just sound completely naive to how any of this stuff works, have you ever built any kind if search autocomplete systems for a website? Its fairly well established how you do it, postgres straight up has a built in way to handle it smoothly.

I think you are just speaking exceedingly out of your depth here.

No, helping me type a variable name is in no way comparable to barfing out an entire function that does something complex.

It literally is exactly the same thing, its the exact same api endpoint getting invoked, its sending your tokens, and its AI generating an autocomplete for you to suggest what you type next.

Its the literal exact same backend, its just generating the suggestions in smaller bite sized chunks.

You’ve now repeatedly outed yourself as not having a single clue how stuff works. You are either a very junior dev still, or just straight up a hobbyist amateur.

Either way, you are speaking deeply out of depth on where your knowledge is. You are making a fool of yourself and you are digging the hole deeper and deeper with every post.

Just take the L dawg and bow out, you dont know what you are talking about.

The “dont sit close to the TV,” thing is objectively truth and is even worse today.

I used screens a lot growing up, including a laptop and various portable games like the Gameboy and PSP

This led to my eyes slowly developing the need for prism on my lenses, because they over-correct now focusing on close objects.

Nowadays smart phones are this problem but way worse too, if you sit in the dark holding it way too close, especially with glasses on, you are slowly deteriorating your eye muscles.

Unless you exercise them of course, every 20-30min. But most people dont do that.

I now am having to do constant daily exercises to slowly undo my prism, a year and a half ago I had a prism of 5.0 on each eye, this month I finally got it down to 2.5, which is solid progress!

However VR doesnt have this issue, its a virtual image that appears to be 2 to 10 or more meters away, so your eyes are focusing like looking at something far away.

It is 100% accurate, it sounds like you just are completely unaware of the fact the autocomplete on a bunch of popular IDEs for the past couple years is AI gen backed.

It literally sends your code as tokens to their server and prompts an LLM to FITM generate code, then sends that back to your IDE which then prompts you with it as a tab complete.

Its been like that for easily 2 years now.

People have such a little clue about this, they are constantly shocked to find it out.

And this is what Im talking about when I discuss this.

People are completely clueless now how entrenched they are, they hand wave it away despite the avg dev autocompleting easily half their code, totally unaware its AI generated.

ai assistance isn’t opt out dipshit, my keyboard doesn’t ask the AI before sending letters to my screen which is literally all that happens when I code.

If you use any of the popular mainstream IDEs, and have ever accepted a tab autocomplete, you actually have precisely done that.

If you use neovim or etc though then fair enough. Also props for using the best IDE :p

But if you VS code and have ever accepted a tab autocomplete… yes you were using AI friend lol

AI as a field is the study of any form of NN application, which includes the software powering Boston dynamics robots…

You didnt think those robots capabilities were programmed manually by hand, did you?

AI slop is primarily the product of a bunch of amateurs who are fucking around.

No one cares if you ban that, go ahead.

The majority of actual valuable and useful output of AI is shit you will never even care about or interact with in your say to day life.

Basically any video game debeloped in the past couple years is riddled with AI generated code.

Even the devs who made it are likely unaware of this.

At my job I proctor interviews for devs and an enormous amount of devs have zero clue the built in autocomplete in VS Code, for example, is AI.

I tell them this and theyre shocked, “Ive been using AI this whole time?!” Yeah dawg lol…

I gaurentee you the average “real” game on steam with actual downloads and people playing it, has big chunks of its code AI generated.

The most popular IDE for the unity game engine and godot engine are both vs code.

Which means countless devs are out there, right now tab sutocomplete accepting mountains of AI generated code into their games.

They dont know its AI.

Their managers dont know its AI

The people buying their games dont know its AI.

No one even knows or cares.

*That is the reality, and has been for a long while now too.

So yeah… get used to it lol

What IDE do you and your team use.

If you use any mainstream IDE, you’ve probably been unwittingly including AI generated code for years now.

Unless your whole team is using vim or something, yeah, I hate to break it to you but massive chunks of your codebase actually were AI generated.

Only one I know of that still isnt aggressively doing this is Eclipse, but even Java devs very often use IntelliJ instead.

And a line of code that deletes system32 is only meant to be interpreted by the CPU, not a human, too.

Whats your point?

Injected attacks that instruct an AI to perform a malicious action dont get absolved just because the attack vector us through an agent.

So basically nothing written in the past 3 years? lol

People have zero goddamn clue how much code is ai assisted (almost everything written since 2023)

AI assistance has been opt out for years. Deal with it.

… no I am talking about actual AI as a field as a whole, not just LLMs…

Yall forgetting about Boston dynamics or something?

We got fuckin guns strapped to the back of autonomous robot dogs that can run at over 60 km/h

We got autonomous drones with facial recognition that can fly through dense forests at 90 km/h+

The fuck you think Im talking about lol…

No, thats not what I was talking about at all.

Thats not how it works.

A better example would be “nuclear arms are already here, theres no going back”

Its not a capitalism thing, its an arms race thing.

Once one country starts making nukes you cant stop everyone from following suit to protect themselves.

Same goes for AI, once one country starts doing it, everyone else is gonna need to keep up so they dont lose the arms race.

Sure, you have that right.

And companies will exercise that right by blanket blacklisting everything related to you which can have huge sweeping impacts on your career lol

Its a super super stupid move to make. You are free to do a lotta other shit that tanks your career too lol

The fuck are you talking about, lol.

by the types of people you maybe don’t want using your code anyways

…companies? Sure I guess, if you want to angle your career trajectory towards “unemployable” by all means lol.

Personally anyone doing this I’m going to be more likely to use their code

I am a tech lead, if any dev under me intentionally added/used a tool to our systems because it had malicious undocumented behaviors of any kind, they would be fired immediately and any company that contacted us for reference would be informed of their behavior.

To be clear, this is the scenario of

Me: hey I saw you installed [tool], that thing is flagged by our systems for the maintainers having done malicious undocumented stuff in the past

Dev: haha yeah thats why I used it

Me: you are joking right?

Thatd be an instant high level escalation to “strip this person of privs and get them off our system asap, and HR now has to be involved”

You dont fuckin do shit like that in a real company if you wanna stay employed lol.

Most open source maintainers never “license [any] stuff you maintain for big bucks” that is often hard to do and/or goes against the philosophy of open source entirely.

Uhhh… no this is actually very common. Usually with scaling licenses, “free for use if your company is below [threshold]”, its super common…

And I don’t even think this is malicious behaviour as it just nukes the code of this package and nothing else if you are not being careful yourself…

Are you even reading what you just wrote lol.

Being “sorta” malicious is still malicious. And companies usually have zero tolerance for that shit.

If you don’t do version control you are not a good programmer, imo

You really underestimate how much damage this could do then, lol…

They only documented it after all the outcry, which is way too late.

Documenting it post release still counts as having released undocumented behavior.

And if its malicious (which this 100% is), then it doesn’t fuckin matter anyways lol. You now are treated akin to a trojan maintainer by companies. You’ll get flagged as “don’t ever use anything by this person”

Super great way to get yourself flagged and lose any opportunity in the future for possibly licensing stuff you maintain for big bucks. What company would risk paying money to someone who does childish stuff like that lol
