it’s true that it has gotten better with sources. However remember the context of the conversation? much worse. But I can see the direction OpenAI is trying to take it. short one off responses/solutions with little followup.
It is better than Claude though. Claude will just make stuff up or say EVERYTHING is a “known issue” when it isn’t.
I prefer to pay artists I like directly either via merch, patreon, or going to their concerts.
for my music? soulseek/nicotine+ on my server.
the problem is Spotify is by far the best streaming platform out there, bar none. I’ve tried the other’s like Tidal and Deezer and what have you and just didn’t like them. Amazon Music was absolutely horrible. The only other alternative would be youtube music with an adblocker. How do I find new artists? youtube shorts believe it or not.
But yeah I’d rather pay the artists directly.
I do freelance/consultation dev work and I’d say most of my clients are having this problem right now. But this is a problem of their own doing. Most got rid of their dev teams and instead leveraged AI and less than a handful of junior devs to essentially just be prompt monkeys. I eventually get called into these places to code review the slop that got churned out and the majority of the time the solution is to start from scratch without heavily utilizing LLM’s that got them into this situation in the first place. The problem is though they now need to hire competent senior level devs again. But they can’t.
They place ads on linkedin, indeed, etc and then get absolutely hammered with resumes written by AI. The vast majority of which are resumes from people that are either incredibly unqualified or are from like India. They again had to stop using AI to read them because naturally it’s just pulling the bullshit from the pile of bullshit it’s being fed. The ACTUAL devs that are applying get lost in the shuffle. Now they have to manually comb through all the resumes and verify that they’re not AI crap before even attempting to read it.
So it wouldn’t surprise me if places are just giving up and no one is getting hired. I can speak for myself and other consultants I personally know that we’re having to turn down work because we’re booked solid and don’t have the time. I’ve run out of people to refer jobs to cause we’re all in the same boat.
The industry axed a metric shit ton of people and now needs them back and they simply can’t find them.
nope, I use feishin with my navidrome server and it works great. zero issues at all.
