The burden of proof is on those claiming they exist. Blurry videos of "objects in the sky" is not evidence.
We've seen this before, and we'll see it again. If you want to convince people that aliens exist, you need to show evidence.
Evidence, Evidence, Evidence
No.
LLMs will not eliminate the need for programming languages. This is overly sensationalist
I can appreciate his ambition, and what (some of) his companies have done, but he has absolutely mismanaged the acquisition and running of twitter.
If he could just step back, stick to managing SpaceX, Tesla and Boring, and stop tweeting, I would be very happy.
it can churn out decent code within well-specified parameters, but is unable to help out with the actual developer aspects of the role (debugging, critical thinking, requirement gathering, complaining about chatGPT, browsing HN, code-reviews, etc)
I don't know why this keeps getting blogged about / brought up.
apparently he's 41 years old and still attending hogwarts.
The problem with these AI systems is that they are great for responding with "realistic" responses that sound right but are still wrong given the context.
I like Samsung phones but it's frustrating that they have these different configurations for different markets. Their custom SOC looks impressive and I wish it would come to North America
Edge and Microsoft have nowhere near the browser share needed to pull this behavior. And this differentiator is a detractor for me rather than a useful feature.
But then again this wasn't built for the end-users, this is clearly revenue base. Just another reason to not use Edge.
The article doesn't have a lot of details, but it would be interesting to know how long ago the Tesla set that record, as they continuously improve on their vehicles.
I'm wondering what your approach to scalability is, as it seems like you're going to have large bursts of traffic every half hour ( with certain hours having much more traffic depending on demographics).
If this messenger takes off, how are you going to deal with say for example all of India having their messages deliver all at once in the evening?
Does he go through every single line of code on every single application he uses to ensure privacy? Does this mean he is an expert in the Linux kernel? And chromium, and sendmail...
Like I get it's great that these are open source, but it's really not realistic for someone to audit every single line of code in every software to be guaranteed that nothing nefarious happens. If a bad actor wanted to hide an RPC request, they wouldn't label it as _sendUserDataToServer(), so it would require quite a good understanding of the call stack on the functions you are looking at.
Just look at the Linux kernel, it's auditable but recently it came to light that a university had submitted nefarious code to it. Presumably that code passed code reviews, static analysis, and some sort of testing? Yet it still made it in. It's just not feasible to have 100% confidence that third party software is ensuring your privacy.
