You seem to be missing some critical context, which is that this set is coming from a site where fans can just propose new sets and if they get enough votes LEGO will consider making an official version. So yes, this is largely a set for adults and the price is set as such.

Yeah it's called quantization. The thing is, though, is when you start producing music you realize heavily quantized music is extremely stale and boring. You have to put in effort by adding "off the grid" details to make it feel alive.

Someone posts something like this here every so often. This subreddit is unsurprisingly full of this stuff. While we shouldn't discount the current state of education, I am also deeply skeptical of how representative this is of the broader system.

Another prediction I remember from this book was that AI would be supplied much like electricity as a kind of utility into many different appliances. This is basically how it has turned out with tokens and APIs.

"If you looked at the code, and yeah, I know, we should not be reading code anymore"

I'm pretty sure this is sarcasm, but it's also a major factor in what differentiated slop from non-slop AI work: did a developer actually take the time to review and clean up generated code. Which is, itself, an extremely time consuming process

Do you have a citation for this?

There's a lot of anti-AI warriors on Reddit in the game development space. I dislike lazy AI slop use in games as much as anyone else, but I also dislike the lack of nuance in these positions. They think it's gotta be all or nothing. It will become increasingly unrealistic to expect game developers to not use AI in some part of their process, especially code development, but such use does not automatically make it slop.

I'm gonna make the claim that all of these are results of how someone uses an agent (poorly), not a result of the agents themselves.

This was my gut reaction as well but I think this is just a poor abstract. What they actually did appears to be much deeper than reinventing agents.md

Abstracts are not meant to be entertaining or memorable; they're meant to be highly functional. When you're reading a billion papers, a good abstract is important because it lets you get the gist of the paper and whether or not it's relevant to what you're researching in about 10 seconds. Make your abstract extremely clear and well structured about what you did, why, and your biggest finding, and the worry about giving it a good hook.

How much scope do you give it? I find it's easier to stay in control when you give it scope down the chunks of work you give it.

These kinds of updates always have this romantic scenario of someone having Claude develop a presentation or something on their way to work between multiple devices, which actually feels a little sad and does not align with what happens in my life at all.
