We should celebrate when LLMs know that they can't solve everything
Don't you feel stupid sometimes spending time coding an app if instead you can just wait 6 months and one shot it with a new model?
here's how your company is rotting right this moment: - your senior devs stopped writing code - they ask Claude to generate it, they check that it mostly works, they ask a junior to approve the new PR
You'd think they'll measure the success of AI by the amount of SNP500 growth, but instead they are measuring it by the amount of layoffs in the tech sector 🤔
Not gonna lie, I'm curious what my "1M YouTube subscribers" look could have been vs my current 1k subscribers style 😂
Kind of crazy that everyone is coding right now with just "fix it" and "no, it didn't work" and no one did a proper funeral for what is essentially a death of prompt engineering 🤷
crazy that people think you can use this thing for production code...
Be prepared to see huskification of humans that delegate all thinking and decision making to AI chat bots and act basically as meat extension of AI auto complete loops
The feeling that I had all the time before LLMs: well, I could build this as a program, but I don't have time to make it good I still have that feeling now with LLMs
All the people "HTML is not a programming language": where's you God now?
You are in a classroom full of sixth graders would you rather explain to them how magnets work or how LLMs work?
Why can't I enjoy things? My first thought using any js library is "well, if I fork it and change how it does X I can use it for Y" 😂
Backdating books is going to become a huge industry If you see two books seemingly AI generated but one say 2020 and the other says 2025 you are going to be tempted to buy 2020 one
Developers be like, oh, let me name my thing to maximize the confusion for everyone: - Svelte - Vite - Zustand - Mise - Nginx - Deno - GIF
It's hard to reconcile that LLMs are finally giving us Star Trek voice-activated computer and the fact that it didn't change our lives much day to day
LLM limits are literally never a problem for me. My limiting function is the number of simple tasks I can delegate to LLMs and the amount of time I have to spend on writing prompts and babysitting agents into doing the right thing. It's never the amount of credits
