"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It’s 2026, if you can’t effectively multi-thread and learn to parallelize processes i question your effectiveness as a dev.

Especially when you're architecting an engine targeting AAA development which needs to eek out every spec of performance they can. Like this isn't them forgetting to use a feature of a language, this is them just not even adding it.

The LLVM also seems like a poor choice. Sure it'll be fine for many but it's still adding overhead and will make it harder to optimize that last 5% to nudge into okay performance. Hardware isn't constantly evolving and being upgraded at the pace it used to.

And actually go look at the syntax of Verse. It's painful to read, which explains why they're pushing LLM driven development so they don't have to see their own monster
