Mathieu Comandon Explains His Use of AI in Lutris Development (my interview!) (lemmy.world)

So when the news circulated recently that the Lutris developer was using Claude to help write the code (and the angry posts/articles appeared) I figured I'd reach out to Mathieu to hear his side of things.

I chatted to him a little, asking for his side of the story. He goes into some depth on how he uses it as part of his work-flow, the transparency in open-source projects in general, licensing and ownership of code that A.I. writes, safety and so on. Plenty of answers from Lutris, if you're curious on the topic. As ever, you can find the link here:

Ai is becoming a very good tool in the.software industry. I think people are going to have to really consider their AI stance and really hone in on what they actually find to be the unethical parts because it will be so widespread and you need to fight against its parts instead of it as a whole.

For me the copyright asymmetry and hostile integration with existing life. I dont want to live in a world where openAI can train a model off all works but i can't do the same. I dont want openAI to scrape every website relentlessly while I get blocked from scraping any large website.

For power usage I dont care. Thats a local government issue. They choose to let an ai data center drive up costs and water usage then they suck and I'll hate them for approving that. Theres plenty of places to put a data center where power isnt an issue.

For art Its awful because its trained unconsensually off artists works and two because it has no intention behind its creation. Ive come to believe that the reason we appreciate art is because of the human intention that goes into its creation. Thats why there is objectively bad art that we resonante with more than a perfect still life because the artist has a story alongside the piece and gives it unique value that ai could never truely replicate.

This is why I can accept AI usage in software development and still hate AI. If its built off an open source model its fine but i dont want to support development using these closed source models and end up in a world where american megacorps control the tools to create software.
