    Fun example I've had (some weeks ago), Agent completely dismissed the lack of strong consistency in our db system, this tiny bug would have caused a massive problem in the future. …

    And if you start measuring amount of commits or PR's I'd bet money on there suddenly being smaller PR's and more commits. As soon as the metric is tied to peoples livelihood, it wi…

    Not commenting on Reid specifically but on the other hand I don't understand why we should listen to the Tech CEO's / Founders about their opinions on the tech they are selling .

    As someone who doesn't follow the specifics of how LLMs write, how can you be sure it's an LLM? I'm asking this genuinely because I've been using stuff like these separators before…

    Both probably, I don't usually understand sarcasm in written text unless it's explicitly stated.

    Also, I'd rather lead a team of humans that I can interact and talk with in real life instead of a team of bots.

    > There simply won't be jobs for them. I simply don't agree with the doomer takes. Might be wrong. I'm kinda stupid yet here I am.

    This is a thought I've had about genAI. In case it all just comes from training data, "one shotting" a game would be more comparable to "git pull" and changing some assets than "ge…

    Yes, but the other N% of the country still might vote for the government you didn't want.

    From a technology perspective LLMs are absolutely bonkers, blows my mind it works as well as it does. From a programmer perspective, I'm starting to like it less and less. It's use…

    I felt the same way, then I started with "I'll believe it when I see it". Now I'm a bit happier.
