  • Well let’s see… Here’s a few from this thread:

    • Being really into something and struggling to not correct people when they say something wrong about that thing. And when you do correct them, they think you’re being egotistical.
    • Being selectively mute
    • Having autistic friends
    • Having non-typical views about gender and/or sexuality
    • Being diagnosed with BPD, bipolar, anxiety, depression, and several other mental health disorders. Especially true for women. This is because doctors tend to suck at identifying autistic people and instead think these other things are what they’re seeing.

    There are many other signs also, but this is just some that may be helpful. Bear in mind that someone can have any of those things and not be autistic, but when they have a bunch of them together, they’re probably autistic.










  • Look, I recognize that it’s possible for LLMs to produce code that is literally someone else’s copyrighted code. However, the way I use copilot is almost exclusively to autocomplete my thoughts. Like, I write enough code until it guesses what I was about to write next. If that happens to be open source code that someone else has written, then it is complete coincidence that I thought of writing that code. Not all thoughts are original.

    Further, whether I should be at fault for LLM vendors who may be breaking copyright law, is like trying to make a case for me being at fault for murder because I drive a car when car manufacturers lobby to the effect that people die more.
