İs FreeBSD good?

Heretofore the saying went that any prolonged discussion ended up being about semantics. Now, it seems that any prolonged technical discussion ends up being about AI.

We have some useful discussion about AI. In threads that are about AI. And they don't contain slop. Especially not 3 pages worth of slop.

I missed that, sorry. I'm'a take a closer look. No irony.

That's still no reason to post AI slop on a forum.

And we will see how many of the maintainers of the affected software will agree that these bug reports are valuable.

Well a couple were confirmed https://github.com/dloebl/cgif/releases/tag/v0.5.1 & NVIDIA's AI Red Team found and confirmed 3 that were Critical. Those were the easiest for me to verify.

Still didn't see the 3 pages of slop. I must be missing something obvious or you must be referring not to this thread. Don't worry about it; it's unimportant.

He is exaggerating, but doing it in a very aggressive manner, which is unprofessional.

And who will find the security issues created and implanted by AI? AI serves the stupids best.

Agreed.

At the moment, I look at AI generated security things like an item in a Coverity report. It may be legitimate, it may be a false positive, it may be something else.
Bottom line is AI like every other tool needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Take a look at what it says, don't take it as Gospel, verify and double check.

This is not unique to AI; I think every tool, even things like Lint, needs to have the item verified.

Just my human opinion based on a personal "default deny" stance on trust.

I read somewhere that you need to be a serious computer enthusiast to run FreeBSD so I don't think it would be right for the OP.

Not in this thread. And a page is 24 lines of course
