It’s hard to parse because they don’t say the quiet part out loud, but what they mean is: You may share in whatever spills over from their munificence. They will wave at you or not from Elysium.
Couldn’t agree more. This is pure elitism, fervently stroking the rod of their own noble justification for why their stewardship is ordained. This is techno-corporate fascism dressed up as the greatest thing that ever…
Because you’re seeing this firsthand? It’s not what I’m seeing being involved in both investment banking and architecture. This kind of untethered speculation based on feels is so misguided. Both fields are seeing…
If your argument is you can’t trust democratically elected governments to make decisions about technology, say that. This banal “oh the children” and “but they’ll use it to kill people” is baby think.
To track you
The writing style is insufferable but it’s not just that. https://opusfived.dev/
Alongside a slew of other things you really, really don’t want.
What’s that line about vegetarians? Like how do you know if someone’s a vegetarian? They’ll tell you. This, but Rust.
This ship has sailed.
This is AI-maxing bleeding into everything. “Make me a great conference presentation”, and this is roughly what you get. AI-nshittification writ large. It’s sad to watch.
Herein lies the seeds of the Revolution that is being fomented by the very class of educators, speakers, and generationally privileged who exhibit casual, naive contempt for the audience they drone on their tone-deaf…
Hey bro I heard you like skills so I put a skill in your oh whatever
Yours is a “God of the gaps” argument. You will remain technically correct (the best kind of correct!) long after the statistical machine has subsumed your practical argument, context limit and all.
> If this is true, then you'd have to conclude that AI is coming for everything. Now you’re getting it
Perhaps more accurately they’re worth what it costs YOU in legal fees to defend them coming after you. Those are real dollars you still have to spend.
You better mean “hiking” as in through the metaverse forest strapped into your corporate-sponsored VR headset, because outside time is for citizens only, friend.
How many hours does it take AWS to clear $100M in free cash flow?
It’s not the whimsy. It’s that the whimsy is laced with casual disdain, a touch too much “let me buy you a stick of gum and show you how to chew it”, a frustrated tenor never stated but dog whistled “you dumb fucks”. A…
Slop. I have zero doubt Claude is going to do what AI does and plough forward. Emails will get sent, recommendations made, stuff done. And it will be slop. Worse than what it does with code, the outcomes of which are…
Two whole projects. A stampede.
Vie(t)nam
Only after exhausting every other avenue
AI creates the most spectacular happy path demos. It’s hard not to extrapolate to infinity when you see it.
Don’t bother with this if you want to get promoted. Others have discussed this in thread and are right. If you build beautiful, simplified abstractions, your skill will be taken for granted as these interfaces appear…
The doom loop Gemini gets into is genuinely unpleasant to read. “I’m so stupid. I should be ashamed of myself. I’m such a loser. Idiot, idiot. Oh god I suck. I’m an embarrassment.” The torture Google must RL on this…
