The marketing here trick is, if they spent the same money on humans they'd have found it years ago. Instead, the lurking variable here is new budget was added.

The marketing here trick is, if they spent the same money on humans they'd have found it years ago.
Instead, the lurking variable here is new budget was added. With the new budget, they added a new tool, and the bug was located.
The difference here was budget.
- aenis 15d agoNope. The difference here is stamina. Those models never tire while working on an issue, people do. And I doubt finding that bug cost more than $1k or so. Even if $10k. Thats nothing for a large department in a multinational company. Thats maybe 2 weeks of fully loaded costs of an engineer. Thats a single business trip across the Atlantic. Thats about two company issued macbooks, or one, if the company is nice. Nope. Not budget.
- efficax 15d agothe budget for allowing a single engineer to deep dive on a bug that is annoying but also not bad enough that you can live with it for years is pretty big. $10k a month or more. My budget for Claude is $200/mo.
