Technology

The best part of paying for a coding assistant is discovering halfway through your project that it has developed opinions about what your project is allowed to be. Imagine your IDE refusing to compile because it thinks your game feels a little too much like Tetris. At least a compiler doesn’t pretend it’s doing you a favor.

Local LLMs are the way to go on AI, they can't suddenly change the model up on you. And also, I guess Anthropic just wants their models to be more useless ahead of going public? Because I presume people that want to use AI, who don't care where they send their data to, but don't want to nagged about how they can't do benign programming and analysis tasks, will just choose another model provider.

Copyright violation from American AI hoovering up all the data is okie dokie unless it's used by peasants to threaten technology corporations.

I'm not defending them it's just comical hypocrisy, and ans I doubt China AI will have the same kneecapped coding capabilities.

Was bound to happen eventually. They're going to try to make open models illegal now.

My opinions are that its fine to make llm projects that threaten corporations who rely on saas. Doesn't mean im going to use them or that they're any good, but I want to see these companies who are firing all their employees and throwing all their money at ai to get scourned. Will build more distrust between the corpos too.

And just to be clear its okay when they steal literally the entire world's knowledge base. But as soon as adobe and Microsoft see a 2% drop in profit all the sudden everyone's a terrorist, or its the worst thing to happen ever. I hate ai but I'll root for my enemy when he's destroying one of my original enemies, can't wait for these companies to burn. I'd go back to the stone ages if I knew elon, Sam Altmann, etc where all dead.

Hilarious

"Give us all your code for free who cares about copyright anyway"

"NOOOO YOU CANT USE OUR PRODUCT TO GET FRE CODE 😡😡😡"

AI exists to aid capital against you; not aid you against capital.

Only the AI companies are allowed to plagiarize.

Too late... the genie is out of the bottle now! All those corporate software copyright moats are being attacked, and there's nothing they can do about it, lmao. Set it all free :)

They’re training their models on my art. It’s only fair I get to use their technology in return.

ai is gonna kill proprietary software! adobe and microsoft are done for now that we can reverse engineer their products with ai and make them open source!!!

you naive fools… the copyright of corporations is sacrosanct, remember? not like the copyleft of independent artists or free software. that can be violated at will!

I once asked Claude to check the app it vibecoded for security flaws and it didn't want to do it.

It literally told me to look up some basic security principles and do it myself.

Well that was an impressive speed run to enshitifcation. What kind of sensorship is queued up next?

Gee. I wonder why anyone would want the inefficiency of local inference?

Please, please make it useless for as many use cases as possible. Then maybe it'll go away.

This is what happens when you rely on the products of giant corporations.

The legitimate developers I know aren't hit by Claude restrictions, because they don't fucking use it.

The restrictions are so they can gradually institute tiered access fees. This is how the industry becomes profitable.

That's a pretty significant part of the value and utility of AI...I bet stealing ppls ideas and getting to market first is still totally fine though, right?

"Why have you done nothing for the past week?"

"Sorry boss, the AI refuses to do my work for me"

That's the problem when you don't own

Great time to know how to do things yourself.

So you can only use AI for things it's been approved to do... Meaning that basically nothing new can be discovered by AI, as that could be considered dangerous.

So then what again exactly is the fucking point other than stealing IP from people that can't afford a team of high priced lawyers?

This is another reason why I've reduced my dependency on AI considerably over the past few weeks, and I no longer personally pay for any AI tools/services at all.

It's insane to think someone would pay for something and after using it for a couple days they get told they can't use it for certain things anymore.

This almost feels like some sort of oxymoron.

This is sick!
They started with limiting cyber research capabilities, now gaming, within a month... what?
Useless piece of shit. That's why I use Mistral.
Mistral, please do NOT go that way - I'd have to self-host my AI, and it ain't cheap :))

It's out of the box.

They can try, but, it's too late.

Don't hesitate, bring them to thier knees.

I'm not sure making the tool you're selling less useful is a smart idea. Hmm, yes liability is an issue. But other models are just gonna allow it anyway, so people will just stop using Claude for that usecase. Reverse engineering won't stop. Claude will just not be used for it anymore
