A couple of months old now, but I just came across this article about #AI from @pluralistic, and it's well worth a read: https://pluralistic.net/2025/12/05/pop-that-bubble/ -
What is the point of converting this software?@warmsignull @samir
When blind rewrite forces into use of unsafe sections, it is telling that section in general is not-ok, not provable to be ok. Rust compiler helps in a long run.
Is this a rethinking of foundations? Yes. -

Cause it may need a rethinking of this or that piece, not a blind rewrite.
If in C to Rust you hit unsafe, it is a moment to ponder.
Rust does push a little twist, that is positive for long term, maintability.BTW, have I mentioned, "time to ponder/think"? Current GenAI's don't do that.

We'll see how I feel in the morning, but for now i seem to have convinced myself to actually read that fuckin anthropic paper@jenniferplusplus
Should title read there:
Impact of not forming mental, due to trusting and outsourcing thinking to AI in this case. -

I must apologize for focusing on peer review, abstracting from article itself.
But, this "force-fed GenAI and slop" moment is to ask ourselves, about how we assess statements, ideas, words.
If an article is in area with only 50 persons in it from the whole globe, "review" should be, 5 upvotes, 7 downvotes, at moment x, and then you decide to, spend time to comprehend article, or to wait. When this is more explicit, then we have better chances, as civilization, imho -

Will "is peer reviewed" change validity/or-lack of the paper?
Should it? -
