Feels very Halloween-y especially with that vampire N and the sharp serifs. Not a candidate for my rotation.

The author here is Claude (possibly something that distilled it).

Dude was like “write me a diatribe about AI arguing why coding agents don’t make sense”

Fentanyl is widely used in surgery

So, you haven’t had enough time to even encounter most edge cases :)

Anything that’s complaining about prompt injection should at least try not to sound AI generated. It lessens the heroism of fighting the mega corps. I’m not even saying this ideologically, I just want to be able to finish reading the article

But these two things are essentially merging, which is the implicit thesis here. White collar being those who manage capital and blue collar as those who manage the delivery, service, product, or process. The latter having lower agency than the former, and generally perceived and measured as a liability by the former.

But AI is coming for capital allocators as well, too, so we are seeing more and more white collar people getting “blue collarized”.

Perhaps quickbooks is the better analogy?

The part about founders not coding is totally untrue. But I’ll see myself out off your porch

Note that unlike prior on device embedding models, this seems to be trained with MRL, not MatFormers, meaning you don’t get to shrink the model weights alongside the lower dimensional embeddings, unfortunately. Likely there’s not good research for how to do MatFormers for multimodal yet?

Only ten day interval? I felt Astra got nerfed within a week

100% agree. Every model and launch feel like huge leaps then huge nerfs to the point it doesn’t feel like we’re going anywhere. Especially this year in particular for coding.

However, it is the case that other industries like 3d graphics and so forth have experienced a frontier shift so perhaps there’s still some advancement

Don’t know why this is down voted. Jensen Huang has literally made this comment on stage when asked critical questions.

His company has been public longer than you’ve been solvent.

Um, how is that not impressive

The quote is so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies in it
