I truly believe AI content has some kind of 'survivor bias' in the sense when it is detected. When it is sloppy and terrible it's really noticeable, when it's well done or used partially with a human you won't even

I think it depends on where you work at and your team. If you come from a good team with high quality engineers around you, I imagine the experience is not as good, or if you work in a big company where on your daily job you just owe a ver

Isn't OpenAI burning billions and have billions more spending commitments? If they managed to downsize so much the cost they should have kept the price the same and become profitable, really weird move, unsure what led to this.

Checked it out, it doesn't particular talk to me but for sure other people, looks like a cool project! Wish you best of luck and success!

For me the most pragmatic way to solve this is in the agent harness layer simply prohibiting commands like git force and others in the settings configuration of your harness of choice with pre tool hooks, its quite easy to setup, obvious on

I called it a graph because really its a DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) , in my example I kept it simple so there was only one input to every node, but in more advanced use cases you might have a synthesis node that takes in 2 or more inputs

Most people jump straight to agents when what they actually need is a graph. Example: a mining company receives free-text reports from field geologists. You could have: Geologist report -> LLM call extracts minerals we are looking for (y

Most people don't understand that 'agentic AI' is a completely synthetic, force fed capability by extensive Reinforcement Learning on synthetic domain specific 'agentic' datasets on post training. If the LLM wasn&#x

I disagree with the final outcome that's just in private. If it's an open brainstorm to decide on solution, you don't have time to book the secret 1 to 1. I think it's just respecting hierarchy, disagree, raise your conc

Seeing the results I don't see how the results are even comparable Opus is clearly far superior in most aspects. Smoothness, design, functionality etc. At the end of the day, the time earned is more important then the cost for big play

I believe also a big factor that it is way easier to convince Trump that AI is a matter of national security, and to use geopolitical tools (NVIDIA GPU ban on China) to secure their market position as much as possible, and to make it more p

Disagree on many points, stocks are used as collateral for debt financing, their prices can definitely trigger cascade effects and losses even if not actually sold. Overreaching arguments that sellers are like selling because they plan to b

Fully agree market psychology has a big influence in prices, TESLA is a great example of this. My main point is that most people, including the media, whenever there is a big crash in prices, like silver going down double digits, they act l

What a lot of people seem to not understand about the stock market, is that at it's basis it's just a supply/demand ratio. When it goes down it means someone is selling a lot, someone is cashing in, at least converting it int

I approach this by always asking Opus to send an agent to explore and trace how a pipeline works. Even better if I have an integration test. Once it's fully mapped out I might ask it to dump everything it discovered on a markdown doc,

I fully expect the ramifications of this to be missed in the US, the scale of large countries (in terms of size and population, i.e. US, China, Russia, India, Brazil) makes them become desensitized to other countries, they effectively live

I have gotten to the point where people selling the idea of running 20 agents at the time and delivering something useful are firmly planted on the left of the Dunning-Kruger curve and are unable to have a critical take on the code being pr

I have personally found huge personal gains on my personal project (where I have complete control) and low-medium significant gains at my job in terms of productivity by REJECTING the 'agentic' workflow premise. The main problems
