Are they planning to program and power these with light, inside an organism?

And that's still a good plan for your primary projects and libraries. But for stuff maintained by others, or when you first start looking at a new codebase, it's slower. A lot slower.

Which is great unless the docs are spread across a dozen web pages or you don't know exactly what word to search for. Natural language queries that can use the bug you're working as context are a massively powerful tool.

It's actually fantastic as a way to find that one bit of info you need in 100 pages of documentation.

Not really a car. And 30 minutes on a charge is really limited.

The tech not being perfect and the tech being absolutely amazing are not in contradiction.

Waymo aside, AI isn't that good yet. Treating your car like an employee won't work any better than treating Claude like a software engineer. It's very impressive but it still needs a human hand on the rudder.

Which is exactly why I said it was a problem of expectations. Or, perhaps, marketing. Yeah....we can always blame marketing.

It's a matter of expectation. Teslas have a steering wheel. You are still the driver. Full self-driving is more like extreme driver assistance. It's like an airplane's autopilot. It does most of the work, but the pilot in command is still ultimately responsible for the safety of the flight.

By contrast, Waymo does not have a steering wheel. You are not the driver, you are a passenger in a taxi.

Two different approaches, both valid. Both possibly necessary; these technologies don't emerge fully formed.

Only two interventions in 15 minutes? Do you realize how exceptionally GOOD that is? Normal drivers have to intervene 900 times in 15 minutes.

I mean....it can be. There's no reason why cloud services would NOT offer automatic backups and short-term undelete. But it's probably best not to make that your only fallback.

Bingo, headline should be "scientist learns why backups are important."

There isn't really functionality "behind a prompt." It can generate and run any command you can when the guardrails are off. If you can rm -rf /, so can it.

I've gone through a lot of TVs over the years. I had the expensive Sonys and Samsungs. The Hisense looks better at half the price in my opinion.

Hisense has been a better value than Sony for years.
