You said a bunch without saying much. It also doesn't track. If the majority of AI work is supposed to be done by agents, capable of doing the entire process including making PRs. Then, why isn't there an explosion in such PRs on

Not the person you are asking to clarify. But, I can read it in two ways: 1. A huge part of the demographic group visiting HN is biased in favor of AI given the sort of startups YN decides to fund. 2. The large amount of start-ups funded by

Right, so now we have moved to "well yeah, but you need to use LLM agents". Do you truly not see how you are actually continuing the trend of shifting the goalpost every time someone is critical about the use of LLMs? Critical abo

The differences can't be that massive given that the hype already made many of these promises well before these models were ever a thing. Basically you are just adding to it with "You just need to use the latest model, anything be

There is more to it. Even on different platforms there are a lot of shared APIs and principles. But yes, you still need a further understanding of the context you are now using the language in. Not to mention that you likely still need to d

The smiley very much implies that the title shouldn't be taken seriously. I'd say it is right on the mark. To be clear, bullish has a few meanings. But they all boil down to assertively communicating. From your comment I gather yo

Oef, well that is surely going to influence how people interact (or skip) the article.

Not saying that you should read the article, but for some context the actual title as ";-)" at the end. Which for some reason is removed here, that should give you a clue that it actually isn't making such claims.

Either way, it removes an important bit of context. Without the it, it seems exactly like one of those over the top hyped claims the article is critical about. It's going to be interesting what sort of comments this will draw in then.

Did you drop that ";-)" from the title because you want to showcase how few people actually read articles posted on HN and just respond to titles. Or did you not read further yourself and didn't even notice it? :P

I'd say that even though available APIs change based on context the premise of the "It's just JavaScript" line is more often that the syntax is still that of JavaScript. Meaning that in many ways it is much easier for

Maybe it is the fact that they blatantly paint a picture of AI doing flawless production work where the only " bottleneck " is us puny humans needing to review stuff. It exemplifies this race to the bottom where everything needs t

Nah, enough technical folks who do the exact same thing just in highly specific syntax equally difficult to follow for anyone regardless of them being “technical” or not. However, you might be one of the people the person in the post is tal

I had the same issue. I think that their point boils down to what we consider "technical" as a label on people. Basically that "technical" is more of an identity rather than someone having a specific skillset. Something

That, and in many cases they get "stuck" at the firefox version they are based on which means that newer things might not work and more importantly security fixes might not be applied.

Since you are one of the maintainers of Ollama, maybe you can help me answer a related question. It is great that the software itself is open source, but hosting the models must cost a fortune. I know this is funded by VC money, yet nowhere

At the same time, let's also not rush to hand wave away issues just because "others are likely worse". Those industries also are an issue, and the question is also applicable there. In fact, the impact of tourism on the envir

I didn't know twitch uses IRC, though I wouldn't categorize in the same box as traditional channels and networks either. I mean, the protocol might be the same, but it clearly is used in an entirely different context.
