Terrible is one word — another is efficient. Phones are already pocket-sized computers, Termux just proves how much you can squeeze out of them. I’d say it’s terrible for people selling overpriced hardware

Not a bot just testing how much I can share here. I’ve been experimenting with coding only on a phone (Termux, Pydroid, etc.) and thought it would be interesting for this community. Happy to answer questions or even show some of the setups if people are curious.

Say what are your opinions on Peter Thiel? I bet he would like to do some things with lightweight AI setups.

Thiel, Probably would. Lightweight AI setups are kinda fun, see how far you can go without a supercomputer

It's not just this community, Lemmy generally hates AI.

Maybe take it to the Vibecode subreddit?

True, some communities are really anti AI for whatever reason Vibe code could be a better spot since people there are actually experimenting with phone based coding. Sometimes it’s just about finding the right niche audience

Give me a lemon cake recipe.

LOL Not a baker, but here’s a quick one. mix flour, sugar, butter, eggs, milk, and lemon. Bake 30 mins at 350°F .
BTW, I can show some neat phone coding tricks if you’re curious

There's a reason. Two, in fact.

1. A lot more people in general on Lemmy work in IT or tech or have actual coding backgrounds. And anyone who can code isn't impressed by code from an LLM. It can save time, but as a first draft that needs work, not something ready for production. The same is true for anything an AI generates. If you don't know what you're doing, it seems impressive. If you know what you're doing, it's a janky workable mess that it at least a decent starting point.

2. Bots push a lot of AI slop and AI buzzword posts, and bots are the reason why a lot of us left Reddit. So posts like this ping everyone's radar for bots invading their safe space.

Anyway, good luck, and as a warning, if your phone is all you have, running LLM code on it directly may be a great way to introduce vulnerabilities since so much LLM code ends up horribly insecure.

Clankers for sure! Phones may be small, but they can punch way above their weight

Tin skin, chiphead, cog-sucking CLANKERS!

Totally get what you’re saying . I’m just experimenting on a phone for fun and learning, not production-level stuff. Definitely staying cautious about security when running anything serious on mobile

Alright, got the message . Phones may be small, but they do pack a punch. Let’s keep it friendly though, no need for insults

Totally relatable. Working with limited resources really teaches you to be creative. I’ve been trying small AI experiments on my phone too, turns out you can do more than you’d think if you optimize your workflow

Even the replies are straight up ai slop. Barf
