Association fallacy: “You know who else was a vegetarian? Hitler.”
You should totally give Claude Code a try. The biggest problem is that it is glaze-optimized, so have to work at getting it to not treat you like the biggest genius of all time. But when you manage to get in a good flow with it, and your project is very predictably searchable, results start to be quite helpful, even if just to unstuck yourself when you're in a rut.
I can count on my hands the number of enterprises that actually have AI models of their own.
I use Claude Code for building products that don’t have these limitations. And fuck is it amazing. Even little things that would have taken days are done in a single line of text.
And somehow these companies are now "AI companies", just like in the 2010s your average food market down the street was a "tech company" or the bakery next to it is now a "blockchain company". This happens all the time with bubbles and mania.
These enterprises today appear even more confused about what they do to rebrand themselves and it's a sign they are desperate for survival.
The fact that I see people being paid to dig a trench does not make me doubt the existence of trenching machines. It just means that the tool is not always the best choice for every job.
It is that and an autonomous system that can generate $100BN dollars in profits. (OpenAI and Microsoft's definition of AGI)
So maybe when we see a commercial airplane with no human pilots on board but an LLM piloting the plane with no intervention needed?
Would you board such a plane?
(1) Given triangle ABC, by means of Euclidean construction find point D on line AB and point E on line BC so that the lengths |AD| = |DE| = |EC.
(2) Given triangle ABC, by means of Euclidean construction inscribe a square so that each corner of the square is on a side of the triangle.
Come ON AGI, let's have some RESULTS that human general intelligence can do -- gee, I solved (1) in the 10th grade.
My threshold is when it can create a new Google
So in my eyes actually think it's probably more to do with reducing the cost of AI inference by another order of magnitude, at least when it comes to mass market tools. Existing basic code-generation tools from a single AI are already fairly expensive to run compute wise.
