Same! My only challenge has been getting the product to be decent enough to the point where I start sharing these. Perhaps I shouldn't wait though...

Amazing how high expectations were that a 56% jump in sales still led to a 3% drop in the stock. It's very clear that the ramp for GPUs continues.

Very impressive. I have to say while I'm deeply impressed by these text to image models, there's a part of me that's also wary of their impact. Just look at the comments beneath the average Facebook post.

Ah ok yes that makes more sense to me. Thank you for clarifying - I agree this new philosophy of building on probabilistic software is an outcome of the bitter lesson. And we will over time have even more capability in the model (that is mo

No it isn't...the author is talking about products and building with a completely different mindset to deterministic software. The bitter lesson is about model level performance improvements and the futility of scaffolding in the face

I'm sure someone will say this, but of course, having a plan is useless, but planning itself is priceless. The reality you must accept is that life will just happen to you, and not just unexpected events, but transitions in your own ne

Fundamentally, AI still remains completions. Agents, tools etc. all cover up the fact that it's completions Still a remarkable, extraordinary technology. But the nomenclature distracts from how it works. AGENTS.md is a great way to giv

As AI tools get more powerful, unfortunately, we will see a lot more articles like this because our cognitive superiority is ostensibly being challenged. The psychological aspects of being cognitively surpassed by silicon on many dimensions

I understand the analogy, but code is so much more fungible. It is the stuff of thought. Rather than a physical thing with hard limits. I think software will remain much more artisan because, in some sense, software is a more crystallized f

I wouldn't put too much hope into this because now, AI can help these people go from really vague thoughts to something that sounds even more fluent. My sense is we really have to raise everyone's critical thinking abilities in or

Yes. I do genuinely think AI can be amazing and I quit my job to build something that I hope will be a positive use case of AI But these stats are troubling Not to mention a backlash is brewing amongst people who both don't want to use

Social media itself has become pretty bleak. "Today, only a fraction of time spent on Meta’s services – 7% on Instagram, 17% on Facebook – involves consuming content from online “friends” (“friend sharing”). A majority of time spent on

Of course there's survivor bias. But the point he makes is completely valid that you have to start by doing things yourself and not automating. I think the biggest value of that is you actually build a more granular mental model of how

Great product. How they adapt AI in a way that doesn't alienate but empowers their core ICP will be important I don't think they can afford to be a follower on AI but being a leader will also be untenable.
