If you don't human review anything and no human reads the codebase guess what I could do hundreds of PRs in an hour and appear the most productive while not doing any real work at …

TVs for consumers are sold at loss and the TV companies are making money with data and ads. I guess the real price is 5-10x of what you pay. So only 10-20x more expensive for more …

I mean you probably cannot even do 284882 * 282817374 in your head, let alone billions of matrix multiplications so that argument doesn't make sense. If you used a trillion square …

Another way to put it: Things that should be tightly coupled but are not is preferable to things that should not be tightly coupled but are. I agree especially because coupling thi…

Bigger models that Antrophic want to sell cost disproportionately more (e.g. 100% more cost for 5% performance improvement) than small models you would use locally

65-70% "programmers" never wrote code in the first place. Before AI cargo culters just copy pasted code from tutorials, stack overflow, github and so on. With AI they merely contin…
