Weird how every new model seems hyped up as the most dangerous yet and the one that will destroy society as we know it. They are also a commercial product.
Just 5 more years and $500 billion more, bro. We're still so early.
Your second paragraph appears to be 3 different instances of saying "X does not necessarily point to productivity gains... but in the case of AI, X definitely means productivity" without really saying why that is true…

...But even that sucks. I want to talk to YOU, about THIS. Not talk about your book report of Claude's output. Why would I want to do that? Why am I supposed to care about what you thought was interesting about Claude's…

I don't know how to tell you this, but people actually can and do, in fact, worry about the methods things come to be made with, and make decisions based on if they approve of that process or not. Otherwise the idea of…

What in the hell are you babbling about? Talking about what public companies do versus what the black mystery box with a question mark on it does is asinine. The entire point of this shit is that Anthropic's numbers…

The current LLM hype started, what, 5 years ago? It's an industry throwing billions of dollars (and teasing at the word trillions) around. It's had super bowl ads. It's a technology that's being mandated in corporate…
If the maintainers burn out, nobody's going to be making your software secure.
> Maybe I have even higher RoI/EV stuff to be doing. I mean, to readers of these comments, I think it's right there for you: 0x3f will take "higher ROI" over "accommodate and support disabled people".
> You call it lazy. I call it "focus" Is this to be read that disabled people and their needs, or more directly from the replied-to comment, "doing the right thing", are not a focus of yours, flossly?
I mean software as a customer/user is by and large completely miserable anymore. People don't like spending money on yet another Solution that will screw them over then shut down, screwing them over again regarding…
> The demand for AI is currently overwhelming [...] companies growing 3x in a month while "Yes, but have you considered number go up?"
That didn't actually address my comment or question, so I'll repeat it, I guess. We already know AI is spamming unreliable crap and slop. The apparent solution is "more, better AI". Why wouldn't this AI for screening…
How do you verify that Claude's output when checking slop is, in fact, correct, and not just more slop itself?
If AI is already mass-producing garbage PRs and other unreliable crap, what makes AI (established as producing unreliable crap) the solution for review? What makes the reviewing AI not produce unreliable crap with…
