As usual, try mplayer. It can play anything.

If that's the case, it won't be unethical to torture humans simulated using a computer up to their wave function or whatever the smallest thing is, which seems sus

The number six seven

> It seems like "six seven" is likely being used to represent the number 17. Is that correct? If so, I'd be happy to discuss the significance or meaning of the number 17 with you.

This does not imply that you cannot use the AI "badly". Call it "malicious compliance" if you want ... :-)

Ah, but we are now in deeply puritanical territory. There is a haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be enjoying the use of AI to create code.

The post doesn't mention AI, it's not about AI and it's not even about implications of applying AI to software development.

AI happens to work in the same direction as the one the author is worried about but none of their theses would be much different without AI.

I think it's pretty clear that it is about AI - author mentions transformation that's been "about three years". What do you think "pulling a damn slot machine lever a couple times to generate the boilerplate" means? What does "coal-fired GPUs to capture society’s output and sell it back to us" refer to?

There are different kinds of coding - web dev, low level coding, software, research, data science. There are some kinds of coding where carefully designing the architecture is important, and AI might not produce satisfactory code. Some kinds of coding, on the other hand, can benefit very strongly from AI. I suspect that many people who specialize in a particular area of coding form opinions based on how useful AI is in that area, and those opinions are perfectly valid for what coding means to them, but don't generalize to other people with different specializations.

Damn that's crazy, who else agrees
