It's weird how much worse google is at code generation when AlphaCode was already so much stronger than gpt4 today at code generation a year ago:

(alphacode achieved a codeforces rating of ~1300. i think gpt4 is at 392)

i used opencv.js a few years ago and it was fast enough to process videos frame by frame for stuff way more complicated than just floodfill. See

OpenAI has a lot of strong competition programmers. Search IOI or ICPC in their team update blogs:

Topcoder will also be having their final TCO this year: https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/113201
Google Code Jam and TCO were the two biggest onsite competitive programming event that's not targeted at students.
This is a huge blow to the sport.

Google's business model is entirely based off the fact that search is great for signaling intent, and that is great for selling ads.
A personalized AI assistant goes WAY beyond that. Whenever you talk to it, it can go into salesman mode to con you into buying shit you don't need.
Surely the economics will work out to still provide "free" searches.

Sounds like a pretty tough job due to the lack of pattern. Either you have to follow a template or you run the risk of randomly tiling something that can't actually be extended further.

According to https://chess.stackexchange.com/questions/2550/what-are-the-... median rating is 1148 (252,989 Players). So it's beating half of humanity at a mind sport and it wasn't even specifically trained for it.
