Meta's work on this has been known in the valley for some time now so all the VC's who invested in Instinct's recent huge raise would have known about it.

Instinct, Town, Orchid, Pally, Poke, folk, it's a never ending list.

To each their own, I don't enjoy planning things in the slightest.

I use Instinct and I'm very happy with it so far. It has booked some restaurants for me, replied to some personal admin-related emails, and updates my progressive workout spreadsheet when i go to the gym. No real complaints so far.

Do you have any evidence to suggest that this true? And if so, why can't I just use any of the very good open source Chinese models (and eventually American once reflection, thinking machines, etc catch up).

Yeah exactly. I remember speaking to someone working at a YC company who was complaining about the quality of their codebase. I then asked him if the company was making a lot of money - he said yes, it was super successful.

Yeah exactly - found the parent comment quite funny. For instance, one of the other top comments berates Claude for terrible instruction following with regards to scientific papers, whereas this one is full of praise. Everyone is just makin

Tesla would be nothing without Musk. That doesn't take away from Eberhard and Tarpenning; they started the company after all and are great engineers. But it would be nothing without Musk.

Yes, but you'd lose childcare benefits in the UK so it's much, much worse if you are a young parent.

The West just outsources pollution to China.

UK taxation is absolutely absurd. Kills the ambitious. Just look at what happens between 100-125k, both from the perspective of tax and loss in benefits for parents.

Some of these such as "Always use {}, even on a one-line "if" statement." should just be lint rules.

It's heavily written with AI. Very painful to read.

Agreed - up-time problems have been going on with Github for a while. They need to sort out their problems.

A lot of human commits are low quality

This is not true in my experience. By and large, everyone uses the cascading voice stack.

You don't have to wait long for that to happen!

Feels like a disingenuous heading for the article. All of the problems they listed seem quite solvable. And it seems like it's saving a lot of time. But saying AI is doing good doesn't generate the same number of clicks!

Similarly I find your comment dumb. First off a huge portion of their user base are not technical. What are they going to do? Use Cc or Codex and then attempt to host their db, frontend and backend somewhere. No chance. Secondly, a lot of t

I don't understand any of the praise for Zitron. He is saying very obvious things and gets timelines wrong all the time. What's special about that?

Out of interest, would it not be allowed even if the company hosted screenpipe on prem (which seems to be what they do)?

To be blunt, I would rate it a 1, a 0 if I could. I would stop reading after the third sentence. FWIW, humanizers do not work. Can they make AI text sound better - yes, but only mildly. Also, they won't trick good ai detectors, and the

While that may be true, in this instance the whole thing is 100% AI generated and this is not someone who has just adopted the mannerisms of AI. For instance, the usage of "Totally fair" and "The hard part", the usage of

Really? You couldn't write this message yourself and had to ask an LLM. At least make it less obvious.

Personally I just use Pangram's chrome extension, which is amazing for spotting AI generated text.

London has incredible AI talent but yeah, unfortunately most of them work on American tech. In another life Deepmind would not be owned by Google but alas.

I've always wanted something like this. I will be testing this out!

Post-Money = Pre-Money + Investment So pre-money in this case is their valuation even before they've received any investment.
