In my experience AI (frontier models) sometimes does weird stuff that needs human review. Not that’s incorrect but sometimes overly complex language or weird use of language.
Bento works with a predefined schema, so you cant use any HTML library (Such as Mermaid.js) if you need it in your presentation.
But then again, often you dont need it.
Just created a presentation with Bento... I do think Reveal.js gives you more raw power. But I like bentos single html page design, and you can easily edit it manually. You cant do that with Reveal.js
There are a lot of claims in the article but not a lot of hard data. In the end they still don’t know if the data is correct.
Good luck with your glutes allergy.
The weird thing for me is the prompt optimization loop? Why not fine tune the model instead of AI generating the prompt?
This could have been a SKILL
Two big red flags here.
First git itself is distributed and built for scale.
I guesss they mean “gitlab” instead of “git”. But such a huge mistake would never go unnoticed.
Are they going to rebuilt git??
Secondly: a big rebuilt of monolith to services. Firstly there is nothing wrong with a Modulith. Secondly “rebuilt” will cause a lot of busy work without immediate value for customers.
And first of all: this announcement is done due to the stock price not AI The productivity increase with AI is inflated because they want their stock price up.
Sell Gitlab stock while you can. The leadership team has no clue what they are doing.
Sadly non engineering leaders buy into this dogma. AI is very usefull but in my experience doesn’t 10x if you don’t YOLO it.
And xAI now gets 10B of more revenue on their income statement.
Perfect financial statement boosting for the IPO which in turn will pay back these costs.
At least that’s the bet.
Technical design docs are higher level than code, they are impricise but highlight an architectural direction. Blanks need to be filled in. AI Shines here.
Formal specs == code Some language shine in being very close to a formal spec. Yes functional languages.
But lets first discuss which kind of spec we talk about.
Also, we only allow engineers to commit (agent generated) code. Designers just come up with suggestions, engineers take it and ensure it fits our architecture.
We do have a huge codebase. We are teaching Claude Code with CLAUDE.md's and now also <feature>.spec.md (often a summary of the implementation plan).
In the end, engineers are responsible.
