My manager is going to open a team discussion about #AI / #LLM use for software development. Much of the company uses #GitHubCopilot or #Claude and #ClaudeCode, while AFAIK I am the only one refusing to use these tools.

What are some recent studies I can reference about the harms of LLM use? I know there's stuff about deskilling, environmental harms, and code quality, but I won't have a chance to research specific studies until the end of my work day.

I know @alice@lgbtqia.space is in the Seattle area, if they'd be willing to boost this?

financial concerns about how these companies are operating at massive losses and will either have to massive raise prices or go bankrupt; trust concerns that "spicy autocorrect" will generate a response that sounds correct but is not, perhaps even dangerously so; legal concerns about the use of copyrighted data in the training set and whether/how that causes the generated result to violate copyright; (2/3)

financial concerns for the *real people* that could be getting paid the money being sent instead to these massive corporations, including writers, artists, and library staff. (3/3)

@jonobie@social.coop @gutenberg_org@mastodon.social The only mystery books I've really read was the original Hardy Boys books. A few of those are in the public domain now, I think. Since I don't have specific suggestions, may I instead offer https://standardebooks.org/subjects/mystery @standardebooks@mastodon.social takes public domain books and makes high quality ebooks from them.

TIL that author M. R. Richardson has a custom (Ubuntu) Linux distribution based on his books: https://mr-richardson.com/galactic-mandate-linux/ When are we going to get a custom FreeBSD from @mwl@io.mwl.io? Could be Laserblasted, $git commit murder, or -- even better -- Savaged by Systemd! (/s if not obvious)

Mozilla claim $1.4 billion in reserves (and no debt). They’re funded by over half a billy anually from Google.

👏 Stop 👏 donating 👏 to 👏 Mozilla 👏

Mozilla is the same Big Tech they pretend to rebel against. Donate your money to a worthy open source independent project before it’s drowned by slop.
