- ianm218 4mo agoI feel like the topic has been discussed ad nausiem but: * Software security - I.e. Mozilla blog post on using Mythos for software security [1] * Algorithms - AlphaEvolve makes real progress on matrix multiplication [2] * Open source - Backlog crushing in openvpn [3] * Corporate - CloudFlare Oauth workers [4] People are clearly using AI to ship real work that people end up using directly or indirectly. Projects like Godot are also in a weird spot though.
