This is correct. It will require non-market forces to regulate soft-landings for humans. We may see a wave of "job-preserving" legislation in the coming years but these will eventually be washed away in favor of taxing…
I'm genuinely curious, is it: a) the writing style you can't stand, b) the fact that this piece tripped your "this is written by AI" and it's AI-written stuff you can't stand? And what the % split between the two is. (I…
Also, regarding your agents (primary and sub): - Did you build your own or are you farming out to say Opencode? - If you built your own, did you roll from scratch or use a framework? Any comments either way on this? -…
When you discuss caching, are you talking about caching the LLM response on your side (what I presume) or actual prompt caching (using the provider cache[0])? Curious why you'd invalidate static content? [0]:…

While I'm certain you'll find plenty of people who believe in the principle of model welfare (or aliens, or the tooth fairy), it'd be surprising to me if the brain-trust behind Anthropic truly _believed_ in model…
Super practical, no-bullshit write up clearly coming from the trenches. Worth the read.
Lots of chat about this: > Inference APIs aren’t subsidised This is hard to pin down. There are plenty of metal companies providing hosted inference at market rates (i.e. assumed profitably if heading towards some…
This way to the hard take-off.

No-one expects Susan. No wait, the Spanish Inquisition.
I mean.. there's simply no repercussions for these companies, and only rivers of money on the other side. The law is laughably inept at keeping them in check. The titans of Surveillance Capitalism don't need to obey…
Fair enough (and edited). I get angry at Chicken Littles spraying their anxieties all over other people because they can. It's not okay.
Daniel's freaking out about an ongoing correction still playing out from '21, and finding struts to support his argument like the "30-50% of the work" is being "done by AI" nonsense lines spouted by talking suits. This…
+1 for vibetunnel
Legal paperwork is a fig leaf proxy for a game played with lawyers and lots of money. If you can't actively and substaintially flex both, you'll discover how the world actually works in due course.
I am shocked, shocked to hear that Sam is backpedalling this.
Yeah, this moralizing is like side-eyeing your fellow soldiers for killing "too much" because your level of killing is fine.
I think we're still in the gray zone of the "Incessant Obsolescence Postulate" (the Wait Calculation). Are you better off "skilling up" on the tech as it is today, or waiting for it to just "get better" so by the time…
You need a supervisor agent to periodically check the progress and `if (madness) halt(1)`

Exactly this. No amount of cred, smarts, and genius that ends with "and I'm a bit of dick" will save you from my automatic red-line veto when hiring. I'm far from alone in this.
1 senior to 10 everyone else. Sorry that wasn't super clear.
