Anyway, I was suspecting that this “issue” might come up so I’ve removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what’s generated and what is not.
Great way to torpedo any trust people might’ve had in your project.
Oh you don’t like to know when we put shit in your food so you can scrutinize it? Fine we’ll just not tell you.
Congratz now ALL of it contains shit.
Uninstalled, bye bye ai slop.
If you really care, I feel like most folks would benefit from checking out
Installing games on linux, even with wine, isnt that hard.
And adding a .desktop entry isnt hard either.
Plasma Bigscreen then nicely gives you a controller friendly UI to pick games from.
I just removed Lutris and tried out Bottles last night. How have I never tried it before? It’s so good!
Expect the dev behind it is also a insane twat waffle.
Bottles is about as much of a mess as lutris is with a dev that’s just as crazy.
Generally you have a 50/50 coin flip if lutris or bottles works for you. And for the most part you sorta just try both and see which works then attempt as hard as you can to change nothing so it don’t break. Cause bottles LOVES to break.
I don’t think the dev of Lutris is an insane twat waffle. He and I just disagree on the use of AI code. I foresee the project’s quality declining because of it, and I’d prefer to jump ship now. Lutris wasn’t a big part of my system, so it was really easy. Basically I only ever used it to run WinSCP on Linux.
Update: not hiding it anymore. https://github.com/lutris/lutris/discussions/6530#discussioncomment-16107836
No reason to hide the Claude contributions if his reasoning isn’t flawed. Honestly, my biggest beef is using AI as a subscription service, there are plenty of local LLM alternatives, and that just feeds the incentive for the web crawlers currently assaulting the Internet, for the companies also tucking in surveillance and training on your use of their AI.
Honestly, it can save you having to search through wordy API documentation, as long as you bother to make sure to make sure you end up knowing the hows and whys of what it is presenting you and whether it is good programming methodology. In a lot of ways it is no different and even faster than having to search for the answers through support forums and stack overflow. It might be built upon IP theft, but unfortunately in practical terms, you will be at a disadvantage against people that use it, so you might as well use it in a way that does not give them any way to profit off of it (Local LLMs). I’d argue that the case against these applications of generative AI is way different than those for image and video generation.
The biggest problem is when developers begin to depend on it too much without learning the nuance, but it would be a lie if there aren’t a lot of developers who contribute to Open Source without really bothering to familiarize with it already and who are more interested in the end goal than best practices. Not sure if this will make the problem better or worse, but devs who use AI without bothering to learn will have a hell of a time providing proper maintenance for their code.
Not disagreeing with you, but Anthropic believes code is the path to AGI.
I want to be clear so somebody doesn’t have a fit - I do not personally believe LLMs are capable of AGI. But this isn’t about what I believe.
They believe that coding is the path because it’s verifiable and a generatable. Frontier AI companies aren’t training on the global internet anymore, it’s poisoned with AI slop. Non-frontier AI companies do, we’ve all seen it. But it’s my opinion that non frontier AI companies are basically all but irrelevant (I’m not talking about open source/hugging face). Anthropic knows this, and their idea (again, not mine, don’t get mad at me please!) is that by training on code their AI will get better at non-coding activities as well, and if they make it good enough at coding it’ll become truly intelligent in all ways.
What I’m getting at is, there’s lots of good reasons to avoid using LLMs/AIs/Companies that shove ai down my throat (looking at you Microsoft- I don’t fucking want copilot in my fucking notepad - if anybody from MS is reading this fuck your AI in everything and fuck your AI ridden operating system), but local LLMs are not a replacement for Opus and Anthropic isn’t scraping the open internet anymore. I’m sure they did at first though.
The biggest problem is when developers begin to depend on it too much without learning the nuance I couldn’t agree more. The brain is like a muscle, if you use it, it gets stronger. If you don’t, it gets weaker. “Vibe” coding is using your brain at a minimum, and if all you do is vibe out slop you’re not really learning much.

Something tells me you haven’t even made the effort. They are not that good, in the same way that LibreOffice is not as good as Excel. But if you are going to make the argument you quote, then you can work that brain muscle and adapt.
And they aren’t training off of the Internet because they are training on your input. It’s mind-boggling to me how some people are so willing to train their replacements while also paying them for the effort to do so for an advantage set very temporary in the future we are heading. A lot of your criticism doesn’t even apply to local LLMs - either they are trained by model distillation from more advances models or because they are images temporally set in stone. It’s also telling how implicitly willing you seem to be able to let the Internet burn, because the inevitability is becoming a corporate slave and accepting their ever increasing subscription fees which you can’t ignore because “hey, they’ve got the most users, the Internet is too dead, your open alternatives are no replacements for us”. You say you are not, but you are saying everything an AI AGI astrosurfer would be saying, and the irony of hearing this in an open source “federated” platform over something like Reddit is paramount.
I could have worded that differently, I apologize.
They aren’t a replacement for somebody like me who doesn’t have a screaming GPU.
Yes they train on input. I don’t like it either. It’s not just creepy, but I’m sure breaks privacy laws everywhere.
Regardless, you’ve already decided who I am so I don’t see this conversation being productive.
I again apologize for not making my previous comment more straightforward.
Oh, I don’t think I know who you are, I just think it’s indiscernible.
They aren’t a replacement for somebody like me who doesn’t have a screaming GPU.
You can run small LLMs that are still surprisingly good purely on modern CPUs, although I’m sure that’s part of the intent of trying to lock down supplies behind the bubble.
If you don’t believe me or you don’t get it, it doesn’t matter.
Sorry but it’s not even slightly comparable.
Frontier models vs whatever you can realistically host on your own that is.
That you don’t want to or aren’t able to compare them doesn’t mean they can’t be compared. You do you, or more aptly, have an AI do you since you can’t bother.
Oh I’ve tried. Don’t assume I haven’t
In terms of functionality on paper it’s similar. In terms of what they can realistically do it’s not.
In other words, it is a task an AI is better at you than.
So wait… You guys want him to continue to contribute his code to AI without leveraging the tools being trained off of it?
I don’t follow this logic. “If others use your code via ai, then it’s not fair if you don’t get to use theirs”…?
I don’t see how reciprocating in this way has the slightest thing to do with opposing the use of ai. People who oppose its use do so on the grounds that they think it produces worse code.
… Aren’t open source projects supposed to share? And aren’t AIs mostly trained off of open source code?
See, I think the people in this thread are mostly programmers who realize they’re about to lose their jobs. Personally, I don’t really care. I have real world objectives that need to be accomplished so I’m going to keep paying my API fees until the local models catch up. Maybe you guys should learn to swing a hammer or something. Lol, what a joke.
Way to turn you being unable to understand a situation into a “burn” against people with actual skills. Gonna guess this is not the only thing today you didn’t understand at all.
Removed by mod
It’s pretty obvious you know absolutely nothing about code lol
No developer I’ve ever met is afraid for their job because we’ve all tried these tools and know how limited their use is right now. Vibe coding morons will not be replacing anyone anytime soon, not successfully anyhow.
If you had any intuition whatsoever you’d probably know that this post only exists because the lutris developer was an asshole about it.
Also, not everyone is 17. Even if AI managed to replace me a year from now, I’ll be fine. But I appreciate the horrific level of ill will you seem to enjoy hurling at a stranger because you talked out of your ass and they pushed back

Why thank you, dinner tasted a little better than usual after reading this comment.
Tagged for future reference. Enjoy your pit of misery.
Whether or not I use Claude is not going to change society, this requires changes at a deeper level, and we all know that nothing is going to improve with the current US administration.
I mean yeah, that’s true. Why waste energy harassing developers of libre software for using AI? That’s not going to have any impact on big tech.
The point of drawing a line is to make a clear distinction between acceptable and unacceptable. If you just move the line when it’s convenient then it means nothing.
Sure, but if you end up policing only those in arm’s length you will have the opposite effect on the world of what you want.
policing only those in arm’s length
Dude, you’re on Lemmy. Do you not realize how many people on here are saying “fuck it, let’s drop Google and Microslop and stick with FLOSS”? How many people on here are trying to convince others to switch too?
These people are already doing what they can to steer the entire tech space in the right direction. But it’s hard to influence the giants directly. To do that, you need good FLOSS alternatives, which doesn’t work if those alternatives start riddling themselves with slop
Oh man I love having CVE 9 vulnerabilities in my system
