What the article describes was already a problem. Business people frequently pushed for broken incomplete work via shortcuts, fell for flattery, and otherwise twisted the work for those of us who cared about doing it well and accomplishing

No risk to life and limb. Emotionally or psychologically it is significant but that's the traditional bar and blindspot.

Whose responsibility is that? To be fair those are consummate and thoughtful politics. The industry is rife with those but that was part of why in leaving it.

The fast food experience is a far end of the experience even for the US. I've experienced long meals here in the US too. They are much less systemic than what I experienced and observed in the UK, France, and, Italy. I've had t

You'll pay extra for those. The ones marked as adds will be cheap. Like how the expensive placement is into the movie (e.g. Apple) rather than the disruptions of the movie.

The author is talking about released bugs. The tools will then continue finding the bugs they find in new code, keeping those from being released. At least that was my reading of the article.

That's true. The gaming community used the acronym that way. Good exception to the rule. As your respondents point out there's also been the pattern of clever algorithms being classified as "AI" until they were underst

Obviously not but the community has shifted its language away from AI. I did not claim we coined AGI in response to marketers.

by erikerikson 2mo ago
Those algorithms were only called machine learning and it's the opposite. Before the marketers got ahold of it we reserved AI for the actually intelligent, sentient, full strength vision of intelligent systems. We now talk about gene

I see your cynicism and it could be correct, I'm not sure. I also could see it being as described but irrelevant in the manager's mind who knows about the pending sale that will put off the pending funding cliff and company colla

This. The problem is that the author may have been right, every time, in the narrow context of consideration they were arguing from and about. But often the problems being solved are multi-dimensional and on some other level. One could ge
