thats fair, "any generalization is almost always wrong" but, gen-ai is not introducing a new mode to my day-to-day life. I would liken it to a calculator app. Sure, i use it someti…

Such statements are made by management folks who dont code, and somehow think coding can be hand-waved away. Sure, this tool will improve the productivity of sw engineers, but so d…

lol, they gamed AIME by over-training the hell out of it for marketing purposes and called it done. meanwhile, back-to-basics is broken.

unlike dot-com which brought in ecommerce, or smartphone which put info and entertainment in our pockets, genai is not doing anything to our daily lives. productivity improvements …

indeed, more speculative monies chasing returns. such a large round implies hardware for yet another foundational model. perhaps with better steering etc..

what caught my attention were the ads. specifically, the hanes ad.. and i wonder why the hanes brand is still around whereas the motor heater brand is not. and hotel rooms were $3 …

agree 100% with this take. they are purpose building hardware for their specific application. debugging corner cases and making this robust is going to take them a decade. given th…

agree that anyone making broad generalities like "algos dont matter" is always mistaken. but API design is more about the system, and how it is carved out into components, and what…

you misunderstand how software systems are built. These days, they are "assembled" out of building blocks which have clean interfaces. similar to how houses are built from prefabri…

Claims of inventing new materials via AI were debunked... https://www.siliconrepublic.com/machines/deepmind-ai-study-c... DeepMind is overselling their AI hand when they dont have …

LLM have unleashed the dreamer in each and every young coder. Now, there is all sorts of speculation on what these machines can or cannot do. This is a natural process of any mania…

This is nice but not very useful to me. What would be more useful in my use case is tooling to audit my cloud accounts periodically and reclaim garbage which is not used or re opti…

thats a fair statement to say that humans cannot be the gatekeepers for accuracy or reliability. but why should the solution involve AI (thats just the latest bandwagon)? formal ve…

let me test it out, and then provide better feedback.

people may be unreliable but the software they produce needs to work reliably. software system is like legos. they form a system of dependencies. each component in the chain has in…

i dont like to discourage or be a naysayer. but, dont build a platform for software on something inherently unreliable. if there is one lesson i have learnt, it is that, systems an…

I am surprised to see this: https://www.404media.co/where-facebooks-ai-slop-comes-from/ dont know how valid this is, but encouraging ai-slop as a business strategy to keep sticky c…

i had the same reaction. the clouds are unable to sell gpus/tpus for premium rates, and now are forced to give them as incentives and credits to customers

whats also puzzling is giving away the foundation model the llamas will be used to pollute the social media reducing their value to advertizers

agree 100% with this nice comment from a fellow dot-com crash observer. Many HackerNews readers are young'uns who are seduced by FANG salaries, and the latest AI/ML bandwagon. They…
