I think it is already a fair claim: For all X, where X is a skill / product / content / artifact / etc., the average AI-made X is better than the average human-made X.

My little prince has not much time left. Squamous cell carcinoma in the jaw, inoperable. I'm devastated and just wanted to go before or with him, but he needs me. I'll need to stay medicated for so long to keep going. I already feel "zombified" just to stay functional. So unfair.
Things I found out after 13 years as a professor: - I love ~1/3 of my students and hate around 10% of them (mainly due to dishonesty); - I don't like to advise; - I like to do my own research, not to delegate. Anyway, I'm getting to the top of my career in 2 years, so, whatever.

I would rather live in a world where mediocre artists can't afford to eat, as has always been the case, than live in a world where people I LOVE have to die prematurely and in suffering.
If I did a bit where the anti crowd was so attached to their fetish, they’d cheerfully side with CANCER, you’d call me over the top and yet
Wtf do I click on the "Mega Man" trending topic and it shows me a lot of posts about Amazon??
Hmmm... maybe Project Zomboid and No Man's Sky would be good additions to the "Agents' Last Games" benchmark.
Minecraft + Dwarf Fortress + Nethack is all you need
Google Chrome fixed 1072 security bugs in its last two milestones exceeding the total fixed in the last 23 milestones combined. Their agentic workflow includes • agents for triaging & reproducing bugs • fixing agents that propose fixes • critic agents that evaluate fixes • agents that write tests

Now I'm getting personal threats from the anti-AI mob. Which means I'm finally doing something right 🤣
Oh no, they can tell where I live from my posts!!! It's not like it's in my fucking bio 🤣
I don't want people to be patient with me, I want them to explode.
Bender is some special kind of stupid. No "but"s. Just plain stupid. Don't come with your bsky shit here.
shot, chaser
It seems that "human soul" thing they talk about is basically a D20. 😂
This applies just as much to using AI, though, if not more.
Princess Leia was pro-droids and treated them like people.
I used to write code because I love creating things and making things happen. Code was the obstacle I had to overcome to bring them to life. Not anymore :). Also, you need to understand that people are different and that your way of thinking is just one among many.
I’m convinced that a large % of programmers don’t actually like computers. As a side effect, are also perfectly happy to throw away their reasoning to a model as soon as they can. I don’t get it, at ALL.
That hammer is shit!!!
