How GPT‑5.6 Sol helps run quantum computing experiments

You mean the negative sentiments that you get when people uncover how big tech/monopolies/government really works ? I guess you would rather read la-la-land stories about the entrepreneurial aces of the 2010s when techies and the general populace were still gullible for that.

Don't you see how we're propagating the problem here? It would be easy for someone who wants a nerdy tech space to read and discuss the contents of the source article, describing how a new technology might change the experimental process for quantum computing research. Instead we're engaging in political meta-commentary, under an OP comment speculating that "[t]his site might be dying" because they don't like hearing about the company who published it.

The US earned themselves very little goodwill from the world (and many of their own citizen), to the point that people even in the West are happy seeing China challenging the US on the AI front. Whether China is wielding AI for better or worse outcomes than the US is up for hindsight.

Our own Github commits volume seem to follow quite closely with token usage on Open Router:

The current prices the largest players set for their models are not profitable, they bleed money. Eventually they will "fix" it. It could end up making their services less affordable and it could cascade other businesses and services that are dependent on them go out of business

That being said I think LLMs are impressive, still.

As things mature there will be a correction, ie the bubble will pop.

I would recommend to read « Boom and Bust: a global history of financial bubbles » https://pure.qub.ac.uk/en/publications/boom-and-bust-a-globa...

If you want check a example company from the .com days check cisco, their stock peaked at 75 then crashed hard and only managed hit that again thanks for the AI bubble.

Technology has been augmenting or replacing human work for as long as the first slab of rock was shoved up an inclined plane (wedge) and popped into its spot in the Great Pyramid.

> No, they are not.

It fascinates me with what conviction you are writing this. You don't know any of the people involved nor how they work or the code they produce. Yet you are certain that what I wrote is false.

I'm speculating now, but you are likely imagining that the LLM-produced code is used as-is, producing a growing slop pile. The cases I'm describing are not like that. Those folks know exactly what they want, how the architecture and the code should look like, and they are getting the LLM to produce it like that. There are quite a few iterations and manual polishing steps too. In the end, the code looks like as if they had written it themselves, just that the whole process was 5x as fast because there is so much quite standard stuff automatically added which would just have been slower by hand.

If you have not experienced this yourself then I understand your attitude, but rest assured, this is possible and I'd caution you to dismiss this.

Of course you didn't mean that (but you wrote it). You probably mean a creative process. The process I descibed is still having the creative human in the loop. Just that the machine is filling in the gaps that are qualite mechanically fillable. Nothing strange with that.

Well at least as long as they don’t develop consciousness of their own.
