I'm disappointed with "Extended Thinking" for 3.8 Flash. On the plus side, it's a strong general-purpose model and the cost-benefit is still compelling. However, the "Extended Thinking" should be renamed to &qu

And the incredible thing is that yields are quite low based on historical standards. The risk of lending to most countries at yields that are barely above real inflation is massive for portfolio growth. Let's take the US, where you h

Good dang, you're right but the annoyance with this one is far from tangential or "common"... If the site used a black font over black background it would be more readable as I could at least select the text and read it. To a

I select my review model based on change complexity. If I'm confident that the change is localized (given that I always maintain an up to date and complete mental model of the application), I'll use Luna/Terra. For deeper cha

That's a silly stereotype. My wife is thin and loves SUVs for the extra leg and arm room, in addition to the extra driving height. That said, obese people will certainly enjoy the same benefits.

Because they are very comfortable. I'm not saying people should be obsessed about them, but that's part of why they are paying premiums for SUVs. Driving higher on the road on a wide car has a strong appeal for most people.

I had two whole semesters of ethics in my CS college. It's very naive to believe this makes any difference, like most suggestions in this childish article, in the way engineers act in the workplace (vs let's say an effective judic

Let's not normalize the achievement. Just a couple years ago this would be considered science fiction. We can argue that 2026 AI can't solve the very toughest cryptograms, but the fact it can solve nontrivial ones is already magic

I can and I'd be okay with that too. The world doesn't have carriage makers anymore. Nobody is entitled to doing what they love or what they are good at. I certainly didn't as my job as a software engineer, despite being prof

As long as they don't connect WOPR, I mean, Claude to the nukes, we'll be fine.

According to doomers, the userbase will be AI too.

Dear sir, I appreciate the help but, as I mentioned, I've been around since the Assembly days... Been there, done that. I currently have a crazy efficient Edit-Compile-Run setup and a great VSCode personal config, all of which were mad

We are going from the era of manual, line-by-line mental model transcription to one where software engineers can focus on data structures, software architecture and algorithms. I love being able to quickly bring out the program that is alre

The problem is that even if the majority of labs decide to slow down, there will be one lab, somewhere, with dark money moving forward. The military wouldn't let that chance pass by.

A genuinely interesting article. I'd like to know more about how their lives changed throughout the years... ...although there is no reason to want to know that. They are regular people like the neighbor and the mailmen. Gosh, the thin

It seems that, one by one, every bastion against fearmongering click baits shall eventually fall... They might as well rename it to "This one new threat could kill your family"

It will be tough to draw the line, as the meat brains trying to prove it were also using AI. I assume that the mathematicians outside Anthropic were hoping to publish an actual human-understandable paper. That could be one way to draw line:

Wouldn't the proof be attributed to the people who operated the AI? After all, it took more than writing a "prove the navier Stokes Clay problem" prompt.

Very cool! What are the most interesting things I could do with these? I know there are a few old games but what else worth pursuing? Payroll simulator? :)

Yes, but let's not fall on the false dichotomy trap. The options aren't only "reject AI" and "completely rely on AI".

> "hands-on coding skills are atrophying to some degree" It really depends on how you define "coding", right? Throughout my career coding meant many different things. In the beginning, coding was really Assembly. Then

In this context, a "car" is a vehicle with some sort of engine, as opposed to a horse, mule, carriage or other animal-powered vehicle. Those who rejected cars when they came out would also happily reject buses, cabs and even train

Emotional rejection of AI will lead to the same outcome as emotional rejection of cars, the printing press and computers. Additionally, when it comes to the software field, it will be a sure way of selecting yourself out of the work pool.

This. I don't like people using others' work without giving proper credit. At the same time, people are jumping too quickly to defend these mathematicians without any solid evidence of their claims, while framing this as some sort

Why are people here jumping so quickly to conclusions? I have no doubt OpenAI is capable of doing this, but right now there's no credible evidence, only claims. This kind of "they stole from me through AI training!" accusatio

Nuclear Weapons is a great example because, unlike AI, it is a real and present danger. Civilization could be catastrophically diminished, if not completely wiped out, literally today.
