I think the perceived situation is a matter of degree. I would say there's a measurable (almost overwhelming) amount of corporate influence already. I have no doubt there are agency operatives influencing discussion online, from record

Once you get past trivial problems, the issue is not just "solving the problem" but proving the solution "solves the problem". This is the strongest argument as to why AI should only be used as small solvers (at this poi

Harnesses are not a solved problem, yet. There are multiple kinds of memory that are user in them, conceptually. Working, Procedural, Semantic, etc. depending on harness design and architecture. Observe-modify is an integral part of harness

Having lived to adulthood before Amazon started, I remember the massive debt to profit ratio of many dotcom companies. Most importantly, I stick to Amazon's lesson: Sometimes, it's not about who's first. The winner can be det

I don't care if you call it an over-engineered looping machine or what, there are concrete benefits to using LLMs for this. They work faster than developing your own looping algorithm and more often produce useful results than not.

The Agent/harness has no meaningful distinction. The backing model(s) can only read through a harness. Call it an agent, call it a tool, call it a library. They are all harnesses if they are backed by a model. Broadly speaking, - Copil

Sigh. Another billionaire whose wealth is being mistaken for authority by the common folk. Worse still, an actual oracle. I see an old (and successful) pirate king trying to wear yet another hat today.

I don't understand this slop debt either. I make lots of small changes, as I did before, alongside self-reviews. This time, the AI puts together the PR and helps with reviews. > Slop debt comes from a lack of decision. Nobody chose
