I think you've stumbled on the core problem - it's a lot easier if you have the funding to be able to do all of those things. xAI would have the capital and lawyers necessary to push it through no matter what. You can hire "i

Fully agree - I think there's a core legalism inherent with especially the british political class. The first indication is always to build more guardrails and take fewer risks. It ends up killing innovation

As someone who has looked at things like Renewable energy deployments within the UK, this is a pattern that seems to be quite pervasive across all industries. The byzantine web of planning approvals, goose counting, public outcry that you h

I mean, i think if you want to perform mass surveilance, you can do it far cheaper and more efficiently via facial recognition, mobile phone surveillance and a variety of different other methods. If you want reconstruction and training of r

THere's a level of AI generated copy that makes the website look unpolished. I think it's right to critique, in the same way i'd critique an obvious bootstrap css website. There's loads of factors that may implicitly tur

Very true - I won't dispute it! I'd only argue that people were doing this before AI, slop development was just copy pasting from the first stack overflow issue that matched the question rather than thinking So i'd argue ther

Haha it's a good analogy, i'm being a little bit argumentative for the sake of it potentially. I guess in my view - the main alternative you'd have beforehand is just to drown. For me, AI sits in a space where if you know how

Yes, I was disagreeing with the premise of the analogy - what would the slow boat in this case be? As my experience, going through software engineering before AI, is that you'd get lost to the ice, with nobody to really help you get ou

I feel like this is partially a skill issue - You can get direct, cited information from LLMs. There's a level of personal responsibility for over-using the tools and letting them feed you bad/false information, but if you try res

This is a great example actually. To me, a function is a single sentence within a book. It may approach the larger picture, but that sentence can be reviewed, changed, switched around, killed by an editor. Some programmers believe they'

WSL is fantastic - apart from the fact that you need to clear it intermittently via disk compression. I use it for work and it's great until you get something incredibly frustrating, like needing a pass-through for your hardware. The o

Yeah - and honestly, i'll probably use a agent like openclaw to do stuff like find flights, villas, find a good timing between X and Y date, get it formatted as a table and validate the websites. Then, I can commit to the checkout proc

Then it's done a horrible job! As all I could think was surely you're not making the efficiency gain you state. It's similiar to back when Notion second brain templates became popular, there was a level at which you went - su

This felt like a sane and useful case until you mentioned the access to bank account side. I just don't see a reason to allow OpenClaw to make purchases for you, it doesn't feel like something that a LLM should have access to. Wha

For a text-based business simulator, i'd make the text far easier to read. I'm finding it to be a little to fast, with a lot of eye strain. There's a couple of techniques, including making sure that your text isn't compl
