An LLM is more akin to a staffed pro kitchen than a microwave.

I'm in Central Europe and there aren't many manual transmissions around anymore where I am. But if you paint with a brush of two entire continents, you might paint a little too bro…

That article is surprisingly prescient.

I would wager not a lot. There are some real hard constraints in space, from power consumption, to weight to thermal output (lack of convection is a real PITA for thermal shedding)…

If my laptop breaks I'm not going back to pen and paper, I'm buying a new/different laptop.

Same here, iterm2 with CC in fullscreen mode and I haven't seen a flicker or other TUI display bug in months.

OP is delusional or deliberately optuse. I work in the space and stare down these systems 12h/day, and saying the systems haven't meaningfully improved is ludicrous.

Cost.

This made me chuckle because it's so true. So much detailed steering and finagling in the past, now I point the agent to a bunch of information sources, skills, similar repositorie…

> AI of being forced within the limits of their training AI doesn't exist in a vacuum, it's the sum of training, inputs and outputs. If I give it novel inputs, the outputs won't be…

Yeah I hear that all the time "someone needs to clean up the slop tech debt" yet in the before times there was plenty of tech debt no one ever cleaned up, why would that be differe…

And that sort of yak shaving is something LLMs are great at.

I don't see why a strong model wouldn't significantly outperform any human in this sort of low level optimization work. We don't hand optimize assembly either.

The competitive edge lies with the higher attraction layer, not the nitty gritty implementation detail (any more). Is that still software programming? The human work lies in the wh…

No one is stopping you. It's only if you want someone to pay you for hand writing code that you might feel a certain competitive pressure that makes it economically difficult, let'…

Seeing how Anthropomorphic just reset usage quotas back to 0 and the other day extended Fable sub inclusion by a few days, I have a feeling they might not drop Fable out of sub aft…

Im here for it, good on Anthropomorphic to feel some heat again after all that drug dealer Fable business.

Agreed, you can feel this change strongly with Opus vs Fable. Fable doesn't feel like a junior developer anymore. And it requires a lot less ceremony to boot.

I hate hate hate level scaling. I believe they also introduced it to WoW, which ruins the power fantasy of going back to a lower level area and kicking butt, or the fear of venturi…

And now you've added to the pile, congratulations.

They add nothing, meaningless anecdotes. I was kind of riffing on that.

And I've been quite impressed. Opus talks the talk, Fable walks the walk.

You didn't add "make no mistakes" so that first test burn will probably blow up the pad, but now you know.

Have you asked an actual cashier what they think? They handle hundreds of people every day, do you really think they consider it rude if people don't chat them up? You can smile an…

Ah, you must be one of those enlightened centrists that doesn't recognize a shifting overton window even if it grabs you by the....
