Please identify the issues with the LLM generated code.
Why would the issues be obvious and easy to point out? Most issues with code aren’t. If they were, we wouldn’t have Patch Tuesday, a direct code review would prevent issues from shipping in the first place.
Throwing this out as if it means LLM code is acceptable and ends the argument is ridiculous. Do you have any grasp of how software vulnerabilities are discovered at all?
There are serious and skilled people out there who use LLMs responsibly.
There is no “responsible use” for a platform built on the largest form of labor theft ever devised.
You must accept the mountain of garbage, because the mountain has grown so very high, and we can’t figure out how to shut down the garbage generator. We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas. Just learn to live in garbage.

Casting Director: “Yes.”

Common currency and measurement standards can and do arise without the imposition of state fiat.
This was not the argument. You are moving the goalpost. The argument was:
the fundamental functioning of people does not require ordering to be viable.
Self-ordering is still ordering. Whether a government is involved in enforcing it or not is irrelevant, there will be enforcement of agreements even if the only ones conducting the enforcement are the concerned parties. That is order.
No grand plan has to be drawn up by any central authority
Sure, they don’t have to be planned and regulated in advance, but eventually common agreements will produce a regulating group with enforcement authority because organizing in this way is more efficient for the market overall.
That group doesn’t have to be a government per se, but it will have regulatory authority.
Yes, I always form my socioeconomic conclusions based on television sitcoms, they’re the best source of opinions.
Sarcasm aside, the idea presented here doesn’t work for any more complex form of cooperative labor (e.g. public water systems, telecommunications infrastructure, hospital services, large research projects, bridge construction, etc). Someone has to perform administrative duties to organize the work being done and ensure that the needed materials and experienced personnel show up at the right places at the right times.
Like, try telling the head surgeon of an OR that the staff can be left to figure things out for themselves, and all the operations will get done correctly as scheduled without killing any patients. They’d laugh you out of the building. The surgery schedule would be chaos by the end of a single shift.
Hmm, are markets self-ordering?
I think in the purest sense, just having some form of common currency would be considered “order” - unless you’re suggesting that only pure barter is necessary for a functional society - but then even that requires some broad agreement on weights & measures in order to function (e.g. how long is a board-foot? how much flour is 1 kilogram?). Collectively the market must agree on some standards in order to function.
Also, unregulated markets always end in monopolies, with or without a capitalist economy. Sooner or later someone will try to establish themselves as the sole supplier of some good or service. Only active oversight and regulatory enforcement can prevent it.
the fundamental functioning of people does not require ordering to be viable.

“The Sims know what’s best for them - just let them be!”
And if it turns out they don’t, oh well! You can just say it’s not your fault, because you just stood by and didn’t take responsibility for anything!
He’s not the biological father.
Yeah, you’re right. They’re more like clones, or siblings.
Um… if Odo is the father, how would you describe what happens at the end of the episode?
Every silver lining has a cloud.
All of human language and culture is “made up”, that doesn’t make any of it less consequential or “real”.
Hmm, where are all those freeze peach patriots…?

No, we’re talking about companies scraping hundreds of millions if not billions of labor hours of output to train their models for the sake of developing software products which they then sell for profit.
Every model that was trained on legally acquired free public data and open source code should be freely publicly available and open source.
Every model that was trained on not legally acquired public data (e.g. Meta’s models) should be taken out of production until all of the lawsuits are concluded, and hopefully the parties responsible are put out of business.
I’m not talking about future, potential labor that AI might replace. I’m talking about the labor which was stolen to produce these models in the first place.
But, please use AI.
