If you had a time machine and you could republish a claude generated article about some interesting tech topic to 2010 I'm sure it would get ok engagement. To me the issue is that everything becomes written in the same…
>I actually accept Jarred for who he is, and actually perceive him as successful by his own standards This was my favourite part. Nerd drama is entertaining.
>I think most of the substantive criticism of Zuckerberg has been about burning funds. I'm not in the org myself I know some Meta SWEs tangentially. My understanding is that the biggest criticism is just the chaos of it…
They haven’t even restored access yet lol, they’re doing that tomorrow.
2026 computing, brokies need not apply.
I was promised 10000 AI scientists curing cancer and solving fusion but all I got was unemployment and short videos of fruit people cheating on their partner.
I’m worried some of the people leading this race will try to entangle the institutional financial giants or even the government to ensure some sort of too big to fail scenario. There’s an unprecedented amount of money…
Wait a few months and a competitor will release a similarly powerful model with less guardrails, if they steal sufficient market share Anthropic will reverse policies. This is why I’m immensely hoping the Chinese don’t…
Machiavellianism
Nah, I think AI has fundamentally changed the perception of the value of most tech labour in the eyes of the people running the show. The end result of it is that the average dev position becomes seen as dispensable,…
The only thing that's really being enfranchised by AI is my stock portfolio. I was promised cancer cures and longevity medicine but all I got is a way bigger workload for the same pay. 401k has never been better though.…
The same type of executive who will instil a tokenmaxxing mandate will be the same type of executive who decides layoffs are the best way to improve margins when the token bill comes due with no revenue to back it up.
Why are some people so pressed about this decision? From my point of view, if you're truly a vibe code enthusiast wouldn't you be able to just vibe code your own better yt-dlp (or fork the existing one and do whatever…
Will Google choose to negatively impact its bottom line for the sake of giving their users a higher quality experience? No. It's not 2005 anymore.
I think people have stopped giving tech companies the benefit of the doubt, unlike the start of the social media era and the smartphone era. Both of those things did transform life & culture but mostly to the benefit of…
Anyone for whom "paying salaries" is a problem they wanna solve.
Extremely cynical take, but they're probably being honest. They wanna serve humanity. But maybe they only consider a small part of the population to be relevant humans.
>Solution: managers need to ask 'how does $THING_YOU_MADE actually work?'. "Claude please tell me how $THING_YOU_MADE works in easy to understand language so I can explain it to my manager." Memorise that and there you…
It's just a classic noise problem. For better or worse people are flooding the internet with LLM output and the vast majority is not worth reading. People will focus on cheap "tells" to judge what's worth spending their…
Cancer is too broad of a term. Some cancers like Hodgkin's lymphoma or testicular cancer respond extremely well to treatment. Some cancers are caused by cell damage from viruses such as HPV and can be prevented by…
If Yugoslavia had survived it'd have the relevance of maybe a combined Bulgaria and Romania today. Slovenia and Croatia were the most developed parts of it and would be burdened by fiscal transfers to undeveloped…
Prevented from visiting? Paris is one of the most visited cities in the world, and the Parisians are pragmatic people. If you're kind and respectful they'll give you that in return. I can only say the most basic phrases…
>opted out of training on his prompts I’d argue this can’t be trusted either considering the AI labs already established they’re willing to break laws (copyright) if the ultimate legal consequence is just a small fine…
It's turning into an influencer economy, similar to twitch streaming, youtube or only fans.
The labour struggle for rights we see as basic today (40h work weeks, free weekends) was bloody and deadly. And this was without surveillance tech and automated police drones or w/e else Palantir is working on right…
