It is a pretty shit language. I use Swift for living. It has a lot of special keywords, Features, etc. they keep adding new keywords to fix specific issues. it is a distasteful language.


I also don't understand why they call it LLM. it isn't.


I think they call it a Large Action Model not an LLM.


They can call it whatever they want but it’s essentially IFTT + DOM scraping /automation (“teaching” lol) for places without an official API with a super thin AI veneer. Mostly for suggestions.


I have the same feelings. It just makes me want to throw up now.


Look at the async/await, actor, actor’s init and async init, global actor, async let, etc. search in the swift’s forum. It will amaze you. they are problematic. Keep adding things and increase the complexities.


Agree. I said that all the time. They just keep adding things.


What? Next months I will be 41. I just got into this industry less than 3 years. I am afraid I will be like you.


Netflix sucks. I just cancelled my account few days ago.

I love swift. but i think it is getting lack of traction.
