This is what we call in the business a "fever dream"

The problem is that you are identifying a symptom of an ongoing societal moral decline with an economic system. Spend some time on Dostoevsky or Kant. When morality is solely based…

Tokens will become significantly more expensive in the short term actually. This is not stemming from some sort of anti-AI sentiment. You have two ramps that are going to drive thi…

This underestimates how much of the Internet is actually compressed into and is an integral part of the model's weights. Gemini 2.5 can recite the first Harry Potter book verbatim …

What humans are known to do, and apparently there is no limit to what they won't, is anthropomorphizing. I think there's not been a single one of these discussions where someone in…

Software moats were never really a moat in and of themselves. You always had to be a first mover. It's true that there are fewer and fewer first mover opportunities, but that has l…

The claim that users who don't adopt AI now will pay for it later or some other notion is a contradiction of their position. People who are bullish on AI should support this view w…

It's an interesting comparison, because Segway really didn't have any real users or explosive growth, so it was certainly hype. It was also hardware with a large cost. LLMs are ind…

Haha wow, you're so so funny. You may have shown too much already. Also, be careful, you might be too smart. You're cute though

Big moat you have there I bet

How is this ironic? I asked you about your process and you haven't responded once, only platitudes and hyperbole about it and now you claim I'm making assumptions? I'd love to see …

First of all. I never said that typing brackets and semicolons is what I'm arguing the benefits will come from. That's a very reductionist view of the process. You have really stra…

Here is the thing. Your initial claim was that English is the programming language . By virtue of making that claim you are claiming LLM has deterministic reliability equivalent to…

You keep sidestepping the core issue with LLMs. If all that you are really doing is writing your code in English and asking the LLM to re-write it for you in your language of choic…

Do you understand what conflating means? Maybe ask your favorite gpt to describe it for you. I'm talking about the entire stack of development, from the architectural as well as th…

This is called being obtuse. Also, this illustrates my ambiguity point further, your workflow is not clearly described and only further muddled with every subsequent equivocation y…

It's not the same. Compilers compile to equivalent assembly, LLMs aren't in the same family of outcomes. If you are arguing for some sort of euphoria of getting lines of code from …

The point I'm driving at is why? Why program in English if you have to go through similar rigour. If you're not actually handing off the actual engineering, you're putting the solu…

LLMs do not revoke ambiguity from the English language.. Look, if you prefer to use this as part of your workflow and you understand the language and paradigms being chosen by the …

The thing that's assumed in "proompting" as the new way of writing code is how much extrapolation are you going to allow the LLM to perform on your behalf. If you describe your req…

I don't think you understand why context-free languages are used for programming. If you provide a requirement with any degree of ambiguity the outcome will be non-deterministic. D…

The dichotomy between the people who are "orchestrating" agents to build software and the people experiencing this less than ideal outcomes from LLMs is fascinating. I don't think …
