In 2003 I almost never touched my phone, because you couldn’t do much on that tiny display other than actually calling people. Maybe that’s the reason the battery lasted a week.

This is a description of a “tool”. Anyone can use a hammer and chisel to carve out wood, but only an artist with extensive experience will create something truly remarkable. I believe many in this debate are confusing tools with magic wands

I wonder if what you observe is a direct effect of the rationalist movement worshipping the god of Bayes.

How is "innovation rate" actually being measured? It’s hard for me to imagine a KPIs that hasn’t been affected by mainstream internet and mobile smartphone adoption, which happened the last 15-20 years.

Did you build the house you live in? Did you weave your own clothes or grow your own food? We all depend on systems others built. Determining when that trade-off is worthwhile and recognizing when convenience turns into dependence are cruci

The question I have for your observation (which I think is correct btw) is: Do you think it's inherent to the technology that the use cases are not useful or is it our lack of imagination so far that we haven't come up with someth

I am absolutely on board with the LLM inevitablism. It seems inevitable as you describe it. Everyone will use them everyday. Like smartphones. I am absolutely not on board with AGI inevitablism. Saying “AGI is inevitable because models keep

No engineer is the same. I had devs who told me they don’t care about product features. "Just tell me what to do, it’s my job to implement."
