I wonder which prompt/models are used to produce such posts. This looks very misaligned… to say the least. Probably some guys posting on behalf of its agent (easy to do). Maybe agents should develop a CAPTCHA for humans lol

Congrats on doing it without AI! Just reading your crappy one-word commit messages make me happy.

It must be me getting old, but definitely 5% of it without, if your goal is to learn something. 5% of thinking about a hard problem is more valuable than 100% of letting it being done by someone else. Especially when the value of the end re

Sure, I don’t discard the contribution altogether, but I am dubious that it is possible to properly draw the line between what to vibe code and what to do it “by hand” to make sure you get the benefits of building.

What used to be a life time project that would inspire awe and respect and make OP an instant hire for most managers is now a fun 1-week stunt that makes you go “cool, how many tokens?” Of course, the result is cool and maybe even useful (I

You might find my comment insulting but saying that it contains insults is inaccurate. Also, OP claims that he is here to learn, but he is mostly chasing cheap GH stars to boost his resume. How insulting is that?

No, you’re in the process of vibe coding stuff you don’t understand and you will most likely never understand until you take the time to open a book.

Yes, I agree, but this is a huge deal in and of itself. I suppose the authors had to frame it in this way for obvious reasons of hype surfing, but this is an amazing achievement, especially given the small size of the model! I’d rather use

I think it’s fascinating how languages shape our society. In this case, the ambiguity between free as in “at no cost” and free as in “freedom” is probably hurting the FOSS landscape. In French, there are two very distinct terms for this: “g

It doesn’t matter. No one buys an iPhone for Siri and no one switches to Android for whatever they call this thing. I have owned an iPhone for more than 15 years, and I have used Siri a dozen times. They will implement something using GPT-4

French is atrocious. It sounds like beginner-level english speakers trying to decipher a text without understanding it.

Something that I feel is missed in every such post or debate is that, maybe, this isn’t a yes/no question. Fast forward 10 years, the skeptics will be right on a few things, and the fanboys will be right on other things. I for one know

That’s also the very reason why it is an absolute madness to give up programming because AI is (supposedly) capable of doing it on your behalf. We invented the car, the motorbike and the jetpack, yet people still hike and ride bikes. It wou

Every time I read a study that reports animals being smarter than we thought, I cannot help but think that this is obvious. We humans are animals, nothing less, nothing more. We are animals with big brains, sure, but nothing of importance s

It’s just as questionable to declare victory because we had a few early wins and that time will fix everything. Lots of people had predicted that we wouldn’t have a single human-driven vehicle by now. But many issues happened to be a lot mo

I'd argue it actually makes things worse. When you can have a higher-purpose job (an ICU or ER nurse who is saving patient's life everyday) and you're spending most of energy on administrative overhead, the effect is just mag

I guess this is one of those things where you actually expect an AI model to work really well (in their current embodiment). As highlighted by other comments, it takes a lot of pattern matching to make a good guess at this game.

Love it, such a nice idea coupled with a flawless execution. I think the future of AI looks a lot more like this than half-cooked agent implementations that plagues LinkedIn…

Out of curiosity, is that also true if you merely want to sell services such as support on top of it? How about customization?

It is quite fascinating to think that Galois lived only 20 years in the early 19th century, yet he conceived a theory of profound significance and impact 200 years later. Imagine if he could live 80 years!
