Accenture is a technology consulting company. Nobody needs technology consultants with AIs around, because AIs are more capable, much faster, and much cheaper than almost all consultants. Their standard hourly rates are typically in the same ballpark as AIs’ highest subscription monthly rates.

Therefore, as their sales start drying up, Accenture is starting to save money wherever it can before it needs to start firing people.

Euro is not a requirement of being in EU. See Sweden for instance.

Who told you to be angry about it?

Note though that the article is pitting open-weight models against each other, not open-weight models vs closed models. The latter still remain quite a lot better from the US labs.

You do you.

Since I did not say that, are you saying in a needlessly complicated way that I’m credible?

Trying to cover their asses in case the fucker stays alive.

Why would anyone use a fortune on AI? A Claude subscription costing $200 will give a single person more tokens than they can probably use in a week. That’s almost nothing if you compare it to a programmer’s salary and the amount of leverage it can give them.

Then again, yeah, some people are just extremely dumb.

Sure, that might be true. A bit like free market capitalism improves a lot of things in the long term, even though it might locally sometimes cause some pain.

Anyone using the word liberal as a slur is either a nazi or a different kind of nazi. In any case, extremely blockable.

Within a few years, they were at war with almost every other country in Europe. Jacobins with their leader Robespierre ran a reign of terror a year until he himself was guillotined. Civil war in the Vendee (about 150 000 - 200 000 dead). All kinds of crushing of revolts in several large cities.

Generally speaking: horrible chaos everywhere, marking the first instance of leftist terrorism after a successful revolution. This would happen several times in other countries that went the same route. Of course, both leftism and the modern concept of terrorism were invented around that place and time.

Cherry on top: Napoleon, one of Europe’s worst dictators of the 1800s century rose to power as a direct consequence of the revolution and how badly its aftermath was handled.

Yeah, initially it sure went pretty great for the side that was on the winning side of the revolution. Agree on you there.

What happened soon afterwards, though?

Funnily enough, France is also the country that spends the most money in the world in social services. So what do the rioters want, end to that?

That went so great the last time.

(For people unaware of the history of the French Revolution: it didn’t go so great)

Jesus fuck you guys are insane.

Jesus fuck you guys are insane.

You are saying that conservatists would burn a 140 year old building just to own the libs

Scum.

“but”? Isn’t that exactly what reviewers are for?

The actual news of the article: LLM helped do a significant piece of work that human developers had failed to do for two years.

That is a good question. It seems like perhaps it would take the edge off. I mean, masturbating to porn doesn’t exactly make one horny in real life.

Then again, it probably does do something bad to how one sees others in real life.
