It's the opposite: people like you will be telling people using these tools successfully, "but where are all great new products???", which, of course, is almost immeasurable. The Internet is a better fax machine and all that.
What tools?

Who is using them successfully and what _are_ the great new products? Examples, please. It's easy to prove your point if it's true.

This is roughly in line with where the thought leadership is: https://newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/context-engineeri... But you know, maybe you’re having a better experience? You should be a consultant.

I can't even fathom what it would be like to assume that every opposing viewpoint is "not real". Just utter, brain-rotted disillusionment.
And if that's the way you think, why would anyone take anything you say seriously? I mean, really? I'm over here, a real person, typing in the comments, and you think I'm fake. You can't fathom someone having this opinion. You realize that's insane, right? And the best part is, you'll just say, "I don't believe it", which makes you even crazier. You see ghosts.

Popped over to HackerNews, read two comment sections and the top comments in both articles were users saying the same thing: "AI can't write code! The whole thing will come crumbling down any minute! Just you wait!" I've never seen this community like this. Are these people cooked? We are years into this and they haven't been able to figure it out? They are going to continue to tell people using these tools successfu…

Shut it down people! Some guy on a tech podcast agrees with HackerNews, that's all the evidence we need! There is obviously zero evidence contrary!

I highly suspect they are real humans being paid to do it. AI will have produced a much more detectable result.
Unbelievable stuff coming out of this place.

#296A half-hearted and timid post. It’s very obvious it was written to avoid criticism. I think the author started writing this on a whim and couldnt bring it to a proper conclusion. What i cant understand is how it managed to get such a high points on hn. Because the piece is completely stale—neither praise nor criticism. The author’s own thoughts are so generic that we hear them every single day in our daily lives, and…
It has points because people agree with it.

Reminds me of CGI in movies. People who hate CGI really only hate bad CGI.
This has been a thought-terminating cliché for years, but actually the conversation around this has been incredibly consistent despite attempts to dismiss it. People still call back to the days of practical effects as more visceral and more convincing because they were. CGI can be great, but it's so often an excuse to cut corners, and people recognise that.
It was not intended as such, which I think you agree with. My aim was to turn it on its head here and strengthen all of our understandings of both AI and CGI through their common characteristics.

#299The litmus test is this: do you enjoy consuming AI-generated stuff? I don’t. Whether it’s written text, or video, audio, restaurant menus, clothing pictures, documentation, airport control, ads… I do think there’s value in LLMs but as a sort of better search engines and q/a machines.
People are spending billions of dollars a month in aggregate because yes, they do like it.

What industry are you in and what's your role? There are new EMR's popping up overnight in healthcare. And that's my point. There's no way a person can say that it's not happening because they personally aren't seeing it. Thinking in terms of "Well why aren't the big companies building software quicker" answers it's own questions. It wasn't the coding that was making it slow.
> There are new EMR's popping up overnight in healthcare That's probably the last place I want AI generated bullshit to be popping up overnight
Are you in healthcare? Do you understand the ways in which these tools are being used in that domain? Obviously not, so your opinion is meaningless.
