Don't forget that training is a one-off snapshot in time. That's why training must be repeated regularly. There's no learning in between trainings for foundation models.

generally-better-than-a-large-pc-of-the-population does not mean good-salary. For a good salary you'd have to be in the minority at the top, where statistics breaks down.

Hear, hear! I was able to poop this morning too, it was wonderful... Kids these days just don't know the value of things!

"You" are already committing money to them, through "your" pension funds, via SpaceX, and other vulnerable F500s. The game on "you" has already been played, because xAI is how SpaceX is connected through the maze of fake IOUs.

The underlying isomorphism point is solid imho. And I'm not actually suggesting that a "team" of AI coding agents is a thing that works, just that agentic AI software development has the same flaws as human software development.

The pattern of use by software engineers, who are by and large unqualified to lead teams of humans, is to use teams of agents any way they can, currently (observations in an industry with unlimited money resources).

There's no rhyme or reason to either their own management of the AIs for their projects or the industry's own attempts to delegate sub-agents automatically. It's purely "throw AIs at the problem" and "throw more AIs at the problem to fix the AI created problems". Exactly what MMM warns against.

I take back my mention of answers. It was meant to be vaguely sarcastic, and you were right to call me out. I should re-read MMM.

Writing code is not how or why the bubble would be crashing. Not making enough money for impatient investors is why the bubble will crash.

I don't have much more to say about it, except that if I was a billion-dollar AI company I wouldn't try and pass off my flaws as brilliance.

Cut off your nose to spite your face, eh? That worked out well for the Americans.... Or the Brits....

How does it fit into the AI discussion?

f: (Managing teams of people) -> (Managing teams of AI agents) is an isomorphism.

What's a chart? Is that, like a piece of paper? My grandma has a few of those in her house, I think.

Both GCC and clang know how to parse C

No different than any other corporate spin about the inflexibility or uselessness of their platform. AWS does this quite well. "Undifferentiated heavy lifting" - while ignoring the absurd complexity and beta quality of their own services. Every issue I have with their shit, I experience a new and different bug or incorrectness in their documentation, and it takes years for it to get corrected. There are still bugs in Lambda that I discovered and reported 5+ years ago which haven't been resolved.

At every level. They must be using claude to make their business decisions, too.

It's not only being demonstrated, it's being reveled in. Astounding.

I don't know if this is just the symptom of the AI bubble, cronyism, or "late stage capitalism" (even though the resemblance to capitalism long since ceased). But it's a mess.

20 years ago, these guys would've been tried for criminality by now. Both Anthropic and OpenAI. They're making Enron look like amateurs.

I'm glad I am not the only one who found that film insufferable.

I'm glad the plague of 1990s "we're going to make a retard the hero" movies came to an end. Unfortunately, now we're plagued with them directing the films.

Congratulations, you just reimplemented REST with additional steps.
