If you avoid using an LLM, what are your primary reasons?
Mastodon only allows 4 options in polls and I know there are many more possible concerns.
If it's something else, like the spread of disinformation, mental health concerns, etc. reply with that.

@treyhunner I work for a big tech with a lot of LLM availability. It actually *has* helped my Python programming. We are also forced to use it for text generation for things like quarterly goals, employee reviews and more. It is useful but requires a critical user and is never a shortcut. That said, as a human, I value process over product, and I think LLM represents everything wrong about capitalism and how it regards human beings.

@ruby0x1 however, that is orthogonal to me simply trying an engine.
Similarly, I've "tried" unreal engine, because my work continues to pay me lots of money to work on unreal games, which in a way is another form of peer pressure. I've considered giving it a try for some small personal projects on the theory that it might be beneficial to broaden my holistic knowledge of the engine beyond what my day to day work calls for, but so far I've decided that my work/life separation is more important.

@ruby0x1 I also tend to shy away from things where there is the appearance of a major time investment developing a set of skills that I would have to pay rent on. So for example, I learned Blender geometry nodes instead of learning Houdini despite being under the impression that Houdini is probably the superior procgen tool. Like wise I've spent the better part of year reinventing audio from first principles instead of buying Reaper or whatever.

@ruby0x1 in the absence of being accidentally embedded in an enthusiastic community, I tend to be very sparing about taking up new tools at all, and tend to limit myself to tools that are available under permissive open source licenses if the tool does something I'm convinced I would not enjoy implementing myself (eg I'm gonna probably use kissfft instead of implementing my own fft, whenever I next have a problem that is best solved with an fft)
-
@ruby0x1 so, what convinces me to simply try a game engine (as apposed to commit to being a long term user), if i'm being honest, is probably a mountain of peer pressure (and being able to try it out at all without having to slip into the golden handcuffs first)
Case study: I gave godot a try (briefly) last spring in part because two close friends had been using it for an indie project, and they convince me in a moment of weakness that it might be a good tool for some of my simpler ideas.

Apparently almost everyone who followed this link from Mastodon got a page load denial with Microsoft claiming we are scraping them. Pretty sure it's Microsoft who is scraping us.

Aww yeah! New Hardcore History episode! It's like getting a new ASOIAF novel.

I find the name "Trump Memorial Centre for the Arts" kind of hopeful.
