It says "workforce": workforce (noun): the _people_ engaged in or available for work, either in a country or area or in a particular company or industry. Machinery is not part of the "workforce".

It’s also just a category error. It’s like saying that 99% of farm workers are tractors or 99% of textile workers are looms.

Reddit in particular is overwhelmed by bots. There are small niche communities where it’s mostly people talking to people, but the vast majority of popular posts are made by bots, voted on by bots and commented on by bots. It’s not even lik

The concern isn't "using up" the immune system, the concern is the immune system gets all revved up looking for something to kill, and not finding pathogens handy, attacks your own organs.

You can have perfectly good code, which is perfectly easy to understand which nevertheless _does not do what you intended to do_. That is why tests exist, after all.

We've been experimenting with claude code handling jira tickets and opening PR -- we're starting with Opus. It costs about $1 per PR that gets merged-- how much does it cost to have a software engineer do that PR? That's yo

I had claude build me something similar for my own autonomous agent system, because I was irritated at how much friction Jira has. I suspect a lot of people will do this.

I deployed a whole fleet of agents working Jira tickets and PRs a couple of weeks ago. You manage them the way you manage people.

I think in the long term, if an LLM can’t use a tool, people won’t stop using LLM’s, they’ll stop using the tool. We are building everything right now with LLM agents as a primary user in mind and one of our principles is “hallucination dri

If you want Anthropic to make a new slack, just ask Claude to write it for you. It wrote me a trello clone in 15 minutes. Why bother with a SaaS. You can build your own perfect chat system in a weekend.
