It would be exceptionally fascinating, if AI, due to the limitations of how it models information, and the way that it warped incentives, if AI ended up being a net inhibitor of progress than accelerator.
I’m curious like, AI has obviously supercharged this, but I think this has been true for a long time. I think like loosely speaking “apps” were except for a short period at the beginning always worthless. It was…
This is awesome! I’m going to have to spend some time with this one. I’ve been working on similar experiments, specifically around learning, I wonder how many people have their vibe coded websites with multiple…
Couldn’t AI and tech be paying AI and tech? Or I’m not sure how this is calculated - the government? Consumers?

There was a post today or yesterday where Paul Graham and Nate Silver accused the AP of being woke for saying you shouldn’t anthropomorphize LLMs. But I can imagine there to be quite a few unpredictable consequences to…
I feel like there’s a weird conflicts in how folks mental model of LLM development. It’s not the model I don’t trust, it’s myself. The model is wrong _all the time_ because - it’s easy to verify the code - it’s hard to…
I wonder if - there are sort of broadly speaking a few different types of learners. Jensen Huang has been CEO of NVIDIA for 33 years. That is a role with a very specific type of information environment. He is sort of…
The future is long.
I get the whole “we don’t have to read the code anymore” Schtick from most product devs, and DHH I guess is at his core a builder / product dev whatever. But the development of something like rails pushed forward the…
I understand this persons frustration, but I feel like… It I were running YCombinator and I were writing next years request for startups. I would say: Here are the top twenty household expenses / bill for the average…
It is kinda crazy - I remember Elon musk showing off that you could play video games and watch movies in the Tesla. And there’s something super dystopian about the idea - When I was a kid basically four things governed…
I’m curious how Anthropic Pivot to biology will work out. I imagine the real world is much harder to manipulate than numbers/code.
Curious about this lawsuit - I assume that there are legal means to “collude” on safety. Car companies coming together to agree on crash test regulations will “slow down” auto manufacturing but I’m pretty sure this…
An assumption built into RSI is it speeds up iteration cycle right? I clearly don’t know anything about frontier model development, but in theory, you could have naive RSI with the right loop inputs right? But the…
A mental model I was thinking about was - I remember when Travis Kalanick was talking about using the chatbot to discuss “vibe physics-ing” on the all-in podcast. And like - I think there’s a presumption you could make…
The 70’s were arguably more Grim than today in life and film.
None of them! That was my point. High prices is unpopular, and datacenters are unpopular, so I’m trying to figure out why 1 and 3 are written in the negative and 2 is written in the positive. I’m just confused that’s…
I’m trying to understand your position here. Resistance to datacenters is like wildly bipartisan popular the other two are inversely so. I assume you’re trying to make a satirical point, but what is it?
I’m curious if something akin to the Streisand effect is going to take place here. It’s not like you can stop them from knowing about the rest of the world and it sounds like current efforts are heavy handed.
I think it was Kara Swisher and guest who made the observation that the reasons social media as it currently exists may not be long for this world is that part of the reason these lawsuits and laws to restrict access to…
“ I have repeatedly argued for strong antitrust enforcement to keep industries competitive, especially Big Tech.” Has David Sacks actually called for stronger antitrust enforcement? Not that he has total control of this…
I think SWE fundamentals matter - because it will be a long time before software is a closed system. And the problem is that as long as humans are in the loop building software that dynamic will have to be maintained.…
“Debuggable? It can add extensive instrumentation in seconds. None of this requires expertise, prompting, or mention of TDD. It's the default.” I’m pretty sure it takes some level of expertise just to use the term…
It seems like, particularly in scholarly works, we should cite AI contributions the same way we cite a third party, with similar consequences around plagiarism. If you’re copying AI whole hog, not quoting and citing it,…
