Comment Generative AI - Is it good for anything? (Score 1) 15

I'm not the only one who thinks LLM is crap. Gartner also doesn't think it will be profitable:

This kind of $ Billion expenditures are not sustainable and there will be a stock market correction.
Probably sooner.

Comment LLM is dead. (Score 1) 17

LLM is dead. Chat GPT is dead. $60B spent on this current AI has created how many viable products? None. There is no AI revolution coming, this crap is the best we will get. 2025 is the year of the AI market correction. Microsoft, Meta, Google, Apple, Tesla, etc will be punished for spending billions with no net income to show. Get your money out now.

As someone who did C for most of my CS degree I find this humorous! C is not a good choice for writing CS degrees classes, Scheme-based languages, are, however, are an excellent choice for writing CS degree classes. If a CS student has trouble making the transition from Racket to Python, they should rethink their career decisions. Seriously, it's not a big jump.

Comment I was there. It was the software. (Score 5, Informative) 167

I was there. I wrote software for Windows 3.0. I had an OS/2 development system. The OS/2 coordinate system was not compatible with Windows. OS/2 was not compatible with the Windows Graphic Device Interface. We would have had to have forked the code and separately supported the OS/2 code. At that time Microsoft had an awesome evangelical program to help sell Window software. IBM did not. IBM had no established distribution method to sell OS/2 software. There was a very small market for OS/2 software. We developers looked at money selling Microsoft Windows apps, or no money selling OS/2 apps. We made our choice. And then IBM canceled OS/2.
