OP works at a robotics company, hence the inability to use Google search and "git clone" to find dozens of ready made apps, some of them years old.
The product as we know it is effectively dead. There is no future in which the URL bar isn't just an AI chat input. It's up to the model to search for you, if it decides that's the fastest way to an answer.

I understand your frustration, but I don't agree with the sentiment that AI-training should not be allowed without compensation. If I learn to draw, make music, build stuff, etc. I look at what others have done before me. I don't pay anyone either. Why should the AI?

1. Compilation has typically not been deterministic. Even within the same exact compiler tool chain version. 2. Compilers and building tool chains change all the time. CI and automated testing catch any regressions. Tye same can be done with LLMs. 3. LLM code generation, with some work, can be made deterministic, if that mattered to somebody.
Nonsense. The "weights" in "models" refer to probabilities. Even the implicit claim that they could deterministically produce "the" correct answer with 100% certainty doesn't withstand any scrutiny. Nevermind problems posed in English prose, complicated or philosophical questions. Is the correct answer to 2+2 four, or is it 1+3? When you you have 2 apples and give me one apple, how many apples do you have now; one, o…
No they don't. They refer to the weights used for weighted sums. The weights don't have to even between 0 and 1.

Interestingly, I have personally felt this way about projects in which I was involved in the past(written both by me and by others)… sometimes starting from scratch just faster and/or easier.
That reasoning is why I worry about the AI endgame ;-)
The tricky part in an office environment is usually signal reflections off metal desks, but walking in a slow grid pattern almost always narrows it down to a 2-meter radius.
Curious to know—did the Bluetooth signal strength method actually lead you straight to the phone?

In what world would this be a future burden? It's just a throwaway fun project lol
Suppose she decides from the experience that she likes making games, and wants to expand on it. She wants to support more songs, different types of song sources, colorful animated backgrounds, flashy graphics, change how it scores, a hundred other things. But by the time she gets halfway through it claude just starts getting things wrong and making them worse, and it turns into a nightmare where she doesn't even know…

> A lot of code is being written and a lot of it is going to be a real future burden. This assumes that the models of the future won't find it easier to just throw the code away and rebuild it This also assumes that the same application build by humans wouldn't become a "spaghetti mess".
And the models of the future will surely be better than they are today. This stuff is still a very long way from maturity. Sometimes it seems like they're moving very slowly. That makes sense: It's easy to get used to how they work today and it is also easy to forget how much worse they were last year. When we look back and realize that just 4 years ago these tools didn't really exist at all, it becomes clear that th…

For most people talking to Claude is a much better experience than doing a Google search.
Google search as become nothing more than a shitty AI by design. Alternative search engines are the only means to actually navigate. I can still find core material using an alternative. Don't worry, Google is now embedding that AI into Android's core. Rinse and repeat, expect the same results.
I hate it.
That’s actually a brilliant pragmatic suggestion from Claude. Using RSSI dBm signal strength as a "warmer / colder" radar is a classic sysadmin trick that most people forget about until they're stuck.
