You can check the content of the torrents, just like any torrent. The client isn't a "one shot" LLM produce, I've been spending quite some time on it. What actual concerns do you have?

Not parent but: The first thing that pops to mind is inadvertently downloading and hosting CSAM.

If you suspect AA for spreading CSAM, please don't support the project. And please do share your reasons for suspicion.

This isn't TOR, though it's not completely unfounded that the definition of CSAM could be broadened in the future by legislators to include things that are, by current definitions, not CSAM, e.g. works of fiction that include scenes of abuse.

Already happened in Australia, in a recent case.

I don't know the exact details, but that sounds dystopian.

Yes, your copy of your operating system could also contain CSAM, I hope you checked every single byte just to make sure.

Please, let's be sensible and think about probabilities in the real world.

I think they were just meeting the original commenter where they already were.

So you did use LLMs to write at least part of the software. I imagine you feel no shame, but it would be nice to at least mention it on the github page. It's a security risk.

As for your question, I don't know about the person you're replying to, but for me any software where part of the source was provided by a LLM is a no-go.

They're credible text generators, without any understanding of, well, anything really. Using them to generate source code, and then using it, is sheer insanity.

One might suggest it means I soon won't be able to use any software; fortunately the entire fever dream that is the ongoing "AI" bubble will soon stop, so I'm hoping that won't be the case.

They literally state that they used LLMs to build it in the second sentence of their initial comment so not sure why you frame it as something they weren't upfront about.

As for it being a bubble that will stop completely, that ship has long since sailed and I assume you're inadvertently using LLM generated code somewhere in your software stack already, due to news reports saying certain companies are already using LLMs in their codebase.

I wish I could speed up time just to see how this comment would age. While I personally prefer living in a world without LLMs, I do suspect you're going to end up without any software.

A more reasonable response than my admittedly slightly aggressive comment deserved.

Indeed, we'll see.

I'm imagining some apocalyptic world Mad Max style where there are underground groups hand writing code to avoid the detection of the AI. Unfortunately, so few people are able to do it any more and the code is so bug ridden that their attempts at regaining control over the AI often ends in embarrassing results. Those left in the fight often find themselves wondering why everyone just rolled over for the machines, what, because it made their lives easier??

Maybe it's a scene from a show I've seen already??

I suspect we'll all end up without any software, once we've successfully gotten rid of anyone who can evaluate the output of an LLM

There will always be a niche of people writing software, just as today while most work in web dev or backend, there are some who work in embedded or have retro computing as a hobby.

Just like you can read source code written by humans (and should if you take this stance) you can also read source code generated by LLMs. Then, when you find something unsavory and feel that your sentiment is warranted, make a contribution.

Well obviously, but a dirty kitchen is evidence that the meal might give you food poisoning, and there's no reason to visit every restaurant. Would you go see a movie that was advertised as AI-generated? (I do appreciate the author being upfront about it however.)

Some genAI video or image content can be made with creativity and be enjoyable. It gets boring with time, but our current AI boom allows some people to unleash an inner director.

I'm looking forward to those films, especially if they are adaptations made by the fan community instead of corporate studios.
