I think the #NixOS community should be a hell of a lot more hostile towards #LLM shit creeping into the community, actually.
This is just the next iteration of the tech hype grift, after NFTs and blockchains fell through (it's the same goddamn people!), and it's not something we should be legitimizing as a community.
@s0x41 Someone with a prior history of problematic behaviour seems to have spun up an entire Thing around using Nix to package "AI" software, and seems to be uncomfortably successful at peddling this to the LLM community - I've been seeing mention of this Thing more and more
@joepie91 It's a good idea to get a discussion going on what sort of software should be allowed in nixpkgs or not.
For example non-free software is already hidden behind a toggle, but is that really enough? Should there be an LLM toggle? Should either be purged? Or something else? Does anything go?
Would be good for everyone to solidify some rules.
@joepie91 Where have you seen LLMs creep into the community?
