Debatably the people who were getting 20 years of education will still be just as capable, and the 20 years of education was always a side effect of their capabilities, not the cause of them.

Yeah. I buy that there are some use cases where AI is a trap, or not as good as people. I'm also chatting with my logs and triaging things like 10x faster in multiple open terminal sessions while I post on HN right now. So I'm als

I see it in a slightly opposite way: even the good models are relatively cheap, and so I worry what we might miss by spending too much time playing with the Sonnets of the world when the Opuses are still objectively a bargain for the powe

There's a huge market right now for "AI product, without much different than Gemini/Claude/GPT do out of the box, but from somebody you actually trust"

It's tricky because dissenting doesn't necessarily mean you'd reach the opposite conclusion in every respect. In this case, I really doubt even the most conservative justices believe "birthright citizenship means whateve

It’s 2026 and my computer will happily give me the right answer even when i make typos. I love it.

businesses absolutely love not paying for things. each other, contractors, etc. employees don’t realize how good they have it with payroll protections tbh. That’s how it should be of course!

Yep! It’s all just text files. Lots of acronyms in top of lots of ways to generate, send, and read structured text files. One day I realized even databases were just text files and I had to sit down.

Sadly no. And I might lose my bet it'd be back by Tuesday... alas...

I've seen it turn right in business contexts. Sometimes you can even lower your standard of "good enough" and find quantity has a quality all its own. But it requires taste and engineering to do it right, and on the right thi

That's more or less what Claude Cowork is. Every serious engineer I've seen try to use it ran away screaming, because of limitations in the sandbox. I've also seen people set their coding agents up entirely within containers

> Just getting the code to run on your laptop took a week. This one surprised me. Claude Code in the CLI has made standing up an app and debugging whatever random dependencies or docker BS a dream compared to the before times, when you&#

I think the hard part is acquiring the GPUs, first at all, then at any reasonable price.

Some business users spent ~30 minutes on an internal process, and we prototyped an "Agent" in Slack to take over. At first it didn't work, then it didn't work some more, eventually it ALMOST worked. Then one day, it work

my favorite quote in this space has always been: the prophecies of what the courts will do in fact, and nothing more profound, are what i mean by the law.

Held my breath the whole time after all the heat shield warnings. Very glad it all worked, or that there was enough margin!

A lot of people feel this way. But IMO the most fruitful thing for an engineering org to do RIGHT NOW is learn the tools well enough to see where they can be best applied. Claude Code and its ilk can turn "maybe one day" internal

Could this be an experiment to show how likely LLMs are to lead to AGI, or at least intelligence well beyond our current level? If you could only give it texts and info and concepts up to Year X, well before Discovery Y, could we then see i

Many people (including Michael Burry) have had this feeling over and over since 2008, and were basically always wrong! Markets are tricky beasts to predict.

Coming around to this conclusion myself after experimenting with the tools for a few weeks. Things have changed.
