A notoriously hard class and one of my favorite ones. Stefano Ermon was a great instructor.
To the contrary, the tools already make a material difference. I wrote 10k lines of code in the last 3 weeks--maybe 60% of that was generated by ChatGPT. Sure, I could have done it myself, but if it wasn't for AI my…
This is a good perspective, but I'm not sure I fully agree. I wonder if it's just that the nature of work, the nature of "what pays well," has changed. Sure, my grandparents had a nice house, but they also worked the…
