Apologies, I did jump the gun here. There has been more and more lazy LLM replies on HN lately and yours raised a flag in my mind because I can't remember someone commenting that deeply while also agreeing with me (normally if it'

Which LLM am I talking to here, GPT-5.2?

The blur isn't correct though. Like the amount of blur is wrong for the distance, zoom amount etc. So the depth of field is really wrong even if it conforms to "subject crisp, background blurred"

But gcc is part of it's training data so of course it spit out an autocomplete of a working compiler /s This is actually a nice case study in why agentic LLMs do kind of think. It's by no means the same code or compiler. It h

I think you're being very generous. There's almost 0 chance they had this actually working consistently enough for general use in 2024. Security is also a reason, but there's no security to worry about if it doesn't real

Same. Immediately I thought why not have clawdbot ask you for the 2FA? That way you at least kind of know what security-protected action it's trying to take and can approve it

Would love to know this too. When he talks about letting clawdbot catch promises and appointments in his texts, how many of those get missed? How many get created incorrectly? Absolutely not none. But maybe the numbers work compared to how

Edit: See child comments, I misunderstood. Original post below anyway. -- To me, the diagrams have an uglier default design. A crazy amount of dropdown shadow (in the examples), stretched fonts (front page example). It doesn't matter h

I thought I had a great startup idea. It was niche, but a solid global market. It was unique. There was a genuine pain point being solved. My MVP solved it. The pricing worked, the tiers were sound. At least ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude told

I'm not great with math beyond high school level. But I am very interested in, among many things, analog synthesiser emulations. The "zero delay filter" was a big innovation in the mid 2000s that led to a big jump in emulatio

You misunderstand. A coder will write different code for the same problem each time unless they have the solution 100% memorised. And even then a huge number of factors can influence them not being able to remember 100% of the memorised cod

Yes I believe so. Also things like forcing a "key insight" summary after the excels vs struggles section. I would take any descriptions like "comprehensive", "sophisticated" etc with a massive grain of salt. Bu

Humans writing code are also non deterministic. When you vibe code you're basically a product owner / manager. Vibe coding isn't a higher level programming language, it's an abstraction over a software engineer / en

This is quite sad, in that the fact that it's AI generated is hidden in the disclaimer and nearly all of the comments think it's a real human.

LLMs are generators, and that was the correct way to view them at the start. Agents explore.

I firmly believe that AI will disrupt this trend, because content will be overrun with predictable AI generated slop and we will appreciate genuine 100% human IRL stuff more.

This may sound backwards, but gemini 3 flash is quite good when given very specific tasks. It's very fast (much faster than Opus and GPT-5.2), follows instructions very well and spits out working code (in contrast to other flash, haiku

It sounds like the initial spec is wrong, which compounds over time. With SDD the spec should be really well thought about and considered, direct and clear.

Honestly sounds more like what happens when you get an LLM to maintain a document. Random things get deleted, moved etc.

But that is still better than nothing at all, which is the point. The people you want (or want to be) are the engineers who are smart and experienced enough to get a first draft down that is pretty much right without a long drawn out proces

Probably. Their final mixing chain is quite interesting too. There's a thread on gearspace that I can't find right now, which details how they record stems into a Roland S760 sampler because it colours the sound in a pleasantly di

Without having tried it (caveat), I worry that 100% coverage to an LLM will lock in bad assumptions and incorrect functionality. It makes it harder for it to identify something that is wrong. That said, we're not talking about vibe cod

This thread had me a bit confused, then I realised the discrepancy. Your objective isn't to label the high school kid as privileged to remove respect for his work. It is to highlight the privilege to others that don't have the sam
