When he goes on TV and claims the models may be conscious or may automate 90% of SWE in 6 months it is designed to pump the stock price. Its ironic they hold a fictitious scenario over candidates heads like “would you still keep working her

Oh please, you sound so disingenuous, the claim wasn’t that the documents contained a specific phrase. You’re moving the goal posts. Their name is literally a play on anthropomorphising the models, such as… the ceo going on tv shows and re

I just prompt my ai coding assistant directly to scaffold out problems and test cases. One nice thing is the LLM can “reason” about my weak areas and tailor the drills it generates next to keep me on a productive path. I personally don’t ge

Part of the entire premise of the article is that many people aren’t being given a choice, so this is a really weird deflection. I disagree about the author not recognizing a middle ground.

So are you implying companies should be able to essentially do fraud, and the market will just weed out bad actors?

While working at Cruise, i built tech to measure the latency even though they just draw a path. Latency absolutely does matter, otherwise you’re drawing that path through a crowd of people. You admit yourself they still need to be responsib

This isn’t just a story about an AI logo, it’s a story about locals who feel the business they frequented was replaced by someone trying to make a quick buck. And an owner who believes that means the locals want to “destroy” her business. I

No the magic was the community’s ability to weed out garbage so we can have meaningful conversations. Garbage is garbage no matter who wrote it.

This is propaganda that appears to be intended to sway you towards “stretching the truth” about how bad the tool is, to your coworkers, by exploiting your fear of “being left behind” and desire to “be ai forward”

They had like 100 devs making 600k at one point. The issue is certainly not lack of talent. More like, they insist on forcing the vibe coding narrative. Some candidates are refusing interview requests accordingly.

Didnt the head of their dept at tesla crash his into a wall? He couldn’t react in time either. I sold-back two vehicles under lemon law to them for FSD/autopilot nonsense, mine was activating the “emergency lane departure” and jerking

Not an attorney, but its a chat between a non attorney… and well, themselves. It seems no different than a client writing hand written notes. But if they hand wrote a note to… give to their attorney, that seems different (which is how you s
