Welcome to the problem of hiring and managing employees generally.
So basically you can't find fault with the numbers but you find the tone annoying?
I took that as exactly his point. Learning the syntax of Python or C++ or whatever isn't particularly hard. If reading the manual or being the one guy in the company who knew how the yamls worked was your "moat" then…
This will do as much to solve your problem as talking to Google on why a search result was bad. Even if they agreed they won't change their coffee machine while you're there and they won't rehire more skilled staff etc…
Yes. At least, the manufacturing of compute is. And a lot of the chain has been bitten hard by increasing capacity prematurely in the past so they're reticent to increase bandwidth at vast cost.
There's an actual working product now, albeit one which is currently loss leading. In software world at least there is definitely enough value for it to be used even if it's just better search engine. I'm not sure why…
It's on the people pushing AI as the panacea that has changed things to show workings. Not someone saying "I've not seen evidence of it". Otherwise it's "vibes" as you put it.
That's still actuating using existing infrastructure that already existed. I agree with the summarise + decide part maybe being quicker sometimes but the bottleneck remains collection and collation and actioning…
AI doesn't increase the amount of data captured or the processing throughput is the difference with your cameras metaphor. As said at best it can summarise things better sometimes.
It's a compiler backend for programming languages not a runtime JIT compiler. Especially inside a DBMS a lot of the assumptions it was built with don't hold. Some people in DBMS world (mostly at TUM with Umbra/CedarDB)…
This is the same mistake as made in Iraq and Syria by media policy pundits. Dictatorial regimes collapse pretty quickly without a significant base of support enough to stop a revolution happening. They might not have a…
AI doesn't add anything to the ability to do mass surveillance. That genie was already out of the bottle from clouds and big data systems. At best AI might take on some of the gruntwork for drawing conclusions from…
Ads and brainless corporate propaganda and culture wars will do that.
It means you can't crank up the knob on "burger king recommendations" for instance.
For a brief blip in time the last few years it was possible to jump from a code camp to a decent paying job and vaguely disappear for a while like Milton from office space. The current period from a bad economy is more…
The amount of "apps" I've had dumped on my team that are everything from un-releasable to deployed on some random shit-cloud we haven't approved (vercel comes up a lot). If you needed hand holding to release things or…
Customers do see poor performance, long outages and slow releases of new features though. "Customers don't see the code" isn't a new insight.
What are you implying 5 years of experience as a Product technical delivery architect influencer and some basic web development skills don't transfer to writing critical software?
There are a few people with a powerful platform in terms of money and influence for whom it would be much simpler if the majority of people were not capable of pointing out BS or seeing how they're getting screwed.…
Personally I think we should allow billionaires to exist but there's plenty of nuances and implications to the political choice of allowing individuals to accumulate more money than countries to the point they get to…
This might be the most annoying habit of corporarte AI that it might be one of the few industries that goes around demanding everyone else provides clear use cases and proof of efficacy for it. 1. If the benchmarks are…
Why does this matter if these models are a super intelligence with reasoning etc and don't need the answers sucked off the internet?
This reads like you're ridiculing people for being proved right?
The first two statements would upset a lot of people but I think you'd find theyre arguably true. Most software products are various flavours of configuration. Unless you're genuinely leveraging some novel…
It's the only logical next step after multi billion dollar corporations need to be provided with other peoples stuff for free to make their business models viable in the name of the free market.
