a few years ago it was exciting to read their product launches - and to use them.
Now it feels like a wave of slop. They do whatever next thing is trending on twitter. fs for agents? sure! new git? sure! agent os? Sure!
like there is absolutely no filter. whatever pops in their mind they push it. and the results are mediocre at best.
>> I can monitor my competitors and copy every feature a/b test resolution they’ve done instantly for (3$ of my budget)
yeah, everyone can.
>> I’m an early adaptor of the latest models.
latest models become default one as soon as they are released. so everyone is an early adopter now.
Even as some sort of failsafe compute for when some meteor hits the earth - already enough for a government to pay 10000x premium for it and it will bring in cash.
Obviously this is not intended to play in the same league as common enterprise datacenter.
I think its much simpler than that. Anything actually useful for people would be a good solution.
Obviously image gen and code gen is not the case, as though it does increase productivity, it doesn't make anyone's life actually better. If it led to 4 day work week - sure. Otherwise it could easily be net negative.
This is the most obvious thing so many people who claim "new jobs were created" miss.
Yeah sure, new jobs will be created. But not for 90% of those who lost them (and most likely not for the one who claims this). You either won't have time, or energy or else to learn it and compete etc. Sure a small % of people will transition, a massive amount will not.
Yeah if you are solo developer without budget.
For any business this is nothing, the ROI is massive.
this is just marketing for them, they will do these kinds of posts for every possible industry.
Because you can’t shortcut experience. And AI multiplies that.
I’ve seen what ai-focused good senior dev can do and it is scary.
A bad or below average dev with AI will run your product and company into the ground in a matter of weeks.
In order to remember something you need to know/learn it first.
tests don't mean much if you are not an expert on the subject
Edit: typo
The only thing AI is crushing is newcomers.
Standalone software has expertise and distribution, the only 2 things that matter and that your new software does not have.
Also the needs of a business have nothing to do with software you vibe code for yourself. Its compliance, backups, reliability. Not a few features claude did for you.
Its not just incentives. It can nuke entire economy if done not carefully.
Ideally new housing supply would be slowly increasing so that prices stop growing and there are incentives to invest into other assets but at the same time not reduce the wealth people have been building for many years.
But overall it seems like the world would be a much better and prosperous place if basic need like housing would be more of a commodity than a wealth driver.
If you have housing you can spend your income on building companies, wealth, experiments etc.
If you spend 30 years buying a place to live - obviously your hands are tight pretty badly.
But it didn't, thats the whole point. The game in question was updated like a day ago, not 20 years.
Fable added few config files for iOS and a gesture mapping to mouse events. It did not do any of the hard stuff.
The title is so misleading that it is probably the single reason why this made to the front page with people assuming it actually did anything hard here.
If anyone deserves the recognition - its the upstream projects that made the game modern and cross platform in the first place.
Without doing you may as well read some fiction. The result is mostly the same.
sure, and there will be downsides.
But that data will be valuable nonetheless.
