But how do they learn to do their respective task? How is the information disseminated? The capability is there for robotics to handle these kinds of repetitive tasks from a long term view. They're just statistical…
I don't really feel this kind of friction. In deep coding sessions it usually follows this loop of 1. cook up design 2. coding 3. compiling+running it 4. view the logs, figure out what broke 5. back to 2 AI just makes 2…
I don't think the "bubble will burst" in the sense that all of this tooling will go away. Maybe companies shift the focus on running them more efficiently. I don't think companies will suddenly turn over a new leaf and…
