It is important to recognise IP because, for lack of a better term, it has far-reaching implications for intellectual property and the GPL. Please keep an open mind. +# Discussion + +IRC nick: libertyprime + +- What Shane is saying right now reminds me a lot of the SICP opening words, about how programming, and computing ideas in general are all about dreams and magic. Creating an idealized solution from abstractions and building blocks. +- This also reminds me of the concept of Humane Tech. Technology, and frameworks that are inherently conducive to human curiosity, intelligent, and all the best traits. <https://github.com/humanetech-community/awesome-humane-tech> +- I think this is like semantic auto-complete on steroids, like tab completion of whatever your typing, or translation of something you've written into code for instance. +- If you're worried about these kind of advances in AI, just remind yourself of how easily technology breaks +- oh my god, executing code derived directly from GPT-3?! that's *lunatic* curl | bash, eat your heart out +- idefun definitely helped by a docstring + - yeah that's a use-case, gen from docstring +- Man, I really think it would be awesome to have shane be able to explain some of these ideas more in depth as they are obviously very deep topics. I'd love to help contribute next year to possibly creating a way to have multiple talks going on at once so people have more time to speak.
