@andrewnez What it sounds like is kinda irrelevant.

What the point of keeping a version control history of what must become layers of garbage, is what I am wondering.

There is no way they can quality check that amount of code. Are they rewriting the software from scratch each time and keeping a history of the previous version? how much nonsense code that never does anything is put in there?

I guess they feel these numbers they toss out should impress people, but if your fancy code-for-you system creates that much noise, it's everything else than impressive...

@lain You mean you have an LLM that managed to create software that already exist as open source?

Impressive!

Having open source projects that do what you wanted is definitely not guidance!!!

@wouter Pixelfed was built as an alternative to Instagram, an escape from the grip of Meta, no, not all of FOSS is anti-big-tech, there are FOSS project that plays directly into the slop fest from day one, but Pixelfed was an escape.

They are also one of the ones to have fallen into this more than most of the larger FOSS projects.

You don't need to understand every ones position on this. We are getting fed up and many are too tired to explain over and over.

It doesn't matter that "big tech are not the only ones that can...", when projects use their LLM's, opens to use their LLM's, and become ad-board for their LLM's so investors toss more money at them.

The "run at home" LLM's are not exactly much to get excited about.

Anyway, I will not respond further. It's getting so tiresome.
