    or, just let people call things what they want, and focus on real problems instead. Even this comment as I’m typing feels like too much time committed to the subject.

    I got the feeling watching that last season of Stranger Things that the storyline and some of the dialogue felt AI generated. It sucked by the way.

    Yes I suppose this is the bare minimum, but isn’t that just a nasty way to go about things? What about responsibility and decency, do we just not do that anymore?

    It is kind of a fundamental risk of IMDS, the guest vms often need some metadata about themselves, the host has it. A hardened, network gapped service running host side is acceptab…

    Mainly for getting managed-identity access tokens for Azure APIs. In AWS you can call it to get temporary credentials for the EC2’s attached IAM role. In both cases - you use IMDS …

    This is insane, when you say azure OpenAI, do you mean like github copilot, microsoft copilot, hitting openai’s api, or some openai llm hosted on azure offering that you hit throug…

    Haha, you can already see wheel reinventors in this thread starting to spin their reinvention wheels. Nice stuff, I run my agents in containers.

    OP never mentioned letting the agent run as him or use his secrets. All of the issues you mention can be solved by giving the agent it’s own set of secrets or using basic file perm…

    Chat gpt is a great name though — you “chat” with the “GPT” so its self informing (even if you dont know what a GPT is), it’s 4 syllables that roll off the tongue well together. RS…

    It would be like if I was expected to deliver A by the end of the quarter and instead I delivered A + B. The value gain from B was more than A. Your manager (and hopefully higher u…

    Of course, step one is always critically think and evaluate for bad information. I think for research, I mainly use it for things that are testable/verifiable, for example I used i…

    I would say it varies from 0x to a modest 2x. It can help you write good code quickly, but, I only spent about 20-30% of my time writing code anyway before AI. It definitely makes …
