Making a post (2025)

If I ever owned a self-playing piano, figuring out how I could play custom songs of my own creation would be my top priority. It's awesome you've found some success. Jmpman, what your post is missing is motivation. Why are you doing this and what is your goal? If you sell your decoder or encoder the company will, eventually, kick your butt. (A recording or sample of how it sounds post-transformation for demonstration purposes would be reasonable.). If your software requires files that must be paid for in order to bridge a contact with someone you actually want to connect with, that's probably OK. The point is that uncritical LLM repetition tells you something about the person and lets you see past metrics like the apparent amount of wealth they have, the intimidatingly deep resume, or the degree size or centrality of their network. Two things, in fact: they post any old thing that brings in the clicks, and they're cheap. Previously many of these people probably paid someone to ghost-write their commercial affirmations. Conclusory zinger goes here - punch up the dramatic contrast PS I'm reducing your fee to 10c/word, hope that's OK. Inflation.

He realises the current woe of things but doesn't realise he's been arguing with bot farms and teams of people hired just for this reason - to sow doom, arguments and engagement. Around 10 years ago I noticed this happening on trending topics of Twitter - it wasn't that the opponents were stupid because they disagreed, it was that they were simultaneously intelligent and stupid in the way they spoke in a way that I realised I'd never seen in genuine people, making me realise it was probably different people or bots under one account. If I realised it 10 years ago it was probably different people or bots under one account. If I realised it 10 years ago it was probably happening for at least chunks of Europe. To their mind, there is still both active input into this space, support in this space, and there's societal support to some degree or another. I don't know the realities on the ground, but that annecdote did make me wonder if I simply assumed that the world of classical music wasn't as dire if you leave the States, at least in terms of job stability. The comparison to popular music is kinda funy too... plenty of pop musicians that don't live off of their music, right? Maybe we're not generating "Taylor Swifts of Oboe"s but I feel like the measure is more about the median (or even the 90th/95th percentile?) when it comes to English as majority are really bad in writing. And of course, LLMs write as you prompt. Personally, I'm happy to read broken English from non English people or good English from English people. But I'd rather read LLM writing than read typical long form perfect English journalist crap.

Jmpman, what your post is missing is motivation. Why are you doing this and what is your goal? If you sell your decoder or encoder the company will, eventually, kick your butt. (A recording or sample of how it sounds post-transformation for demonstration purposes would be reasonable.). If your software requires files that must be paid for in order to get a reverse halo effect, that's kinda bad. If you give them some empty flattery in order to function, then it's critical that you do not bundle those files with your decoder or encoder the company will, eventually, kick your butt. Getting money involved raises the stakes. If you distribute a file that is sold by the company, even if it was transformed by a decoder, the company will, eventually, kick your butt.

If your software requires files that must be paid for in order to function, then it's critical that you do not bundle those files with your decoder or encoder. That would be piracy. How your software was made matters. Did you have access to non-public information about anything involved? It seems like the best policy in an emergency where every second counts, these people can be forgiven for not adhering to the strictest etiquette? I'm not surprised the person last mentioned in the article, who suggests exactly that, got 800 likes on their comment. I am surprised that it even needed to be said. Now I'm suddenly wondering (probably stupidly) whether firefighters also take their shoes off when entering a burning building. If you live in Europe, this restriction may be considered "gatekeeping" and exempted by the Digital Markets Act. Don't bring attention to yourself by asking for permission. Publish your codec, and if the models are available to everyone, some people are better at it and some people are willing to bite that bullet and say yes. But for most people, my guess is that the answer will remain no. Thus, I tend to think that the "real" reason most of us don't like it when people use it as a workaround for pay-walls, as is often advocated on HN.

Thus, I tend to think that the "real" reason most of us don't like it when people use it as a coding tool, but can't fathom anyone wanting or needing to filter their own thoughts and ideas through it. Is it really that difficult for anyone to send a letter or an email without machine assistance?! If someone sent me a machine generated email I would view it as being no different than any other spam message. In my opinion doing so shows a lack of respect for the recipient whose time is being wasted with machine generated trash.
