The problem is that health insurance companies squander immense amounts of money on adjudicating claims. Huge amounts of GDP are spent on fights between insurers and providers over what is covered.

AI providers can only charge what the market can bear. AI isn't worth 20k/month for 'PHD' level work. But people are willing to pay for several $200/month subscriptions. But fundamentally AI compute is a commodity.

Are agents actually capable of answering why they did things? An LLM can review the previous context, add your question about why it did something, and then use next token prediction to generate an answer. But is that answer actually why th

LLMs are continuously improving. So something that didn't work a year ago became possible in November. If you tried to build Openclaw in 2024 it wouldn't have worked. Openclaw isn't groundbreaking, but it is extremely on the

The industrial revolution was extremely hard on individual craftspeople. Jobs became lower paying and lower skilled. People were forced to move into cities. Conditions didn't improve for decades. If AI is anything comparable it's

I think the AI sales orgs are just immature. It's hard to say this but Google's Gemini sales team might be more professional.

What I don't get is, how are these free LLMs getting funded? Who is paying $20-100 million to create an open weights LLM? Long term why would they keep doing it?

FAANG has been engaged in mass layoffs for two years now. How can you possibly make the claim that there is a surplus of people who can pass the interview loops? Obviously, there isn't because they are firing people who passed those lo

Vibecoding is great for open source. Open source is already dominated by strong solo programmers like antirez, linus, etc. People with very strong motivations to create software they see as necessary. Vibecoding makes creating open source p

I don't buy the idea of immutable contracts becoming more common with AI assisted coding. One of the areas AI shines is coding against a spec. One of the big problems in old systems is that the cost of upgrading consumers to a new API

He makes an interesting point that we are coding programs that run more slowly now than they did 10 years ago. Javascript has only gotten faster over the last decade, computer have faster CPUs and more RAM. The problem is the frameworks and

Apple's goal is likely to run all inference locally. But models aren't good enough yet and there isn't enough RAM in an iPhone. They just need Gemini to buy time until those problems are resolved.

Small models are getting good but I don't think they are quite there yet for this use case. For ok results we are looking at 12-14GB of vram committed to models to make this happen. My MacBook with 24GB of total ram runs fine with a 14

AI coding improved a lot over 2025. In early 2025 LLMs still struggled with counting. Now they are capable of tool calling so they can just use a calculator. Frankly, I'd say AI coding may as well have not existed before mid-2025. The

Can you setup automated integration/end-to-end tests and find a way to feed that back into your AI agents before a human looks at it? Either via an MCP server or just a comment on the pull request if the AI has access to PR comments. N

Claude Code latency is at the unfortunate balance where the wait is long enough for me to go on twitter, but not long enough to do anything really valuable. Would be more productive if it took minutes or under 5-10 seconds.

If AI is good enough to write formal verification, why wouldn't it be good enough to do QA? Why not just have AI do a full manual test sweep after every change?
