No, this is the likely path. LLMs are hitting a wall. They’ll get better, much better, but high context “brownfield” tasks are going to remain difficult and require human handholding. The industry is cutting itself off at the knees.

Oh and btw we’re talking about leapfrog. My rough best guess is that they’ll be shipping euv-involved chips by 2028. That’s not a leapfrog, that’s parity

I am not two years out of date. Everything you said aligns with my assessment. Their 5nm yields are horrendous. I guess my mistake was assuming they would ship it considering how rough it is financially, but they probably will for bragging

I suspect that if you’ve got your feet planted in the tech industry as an engineer, you have a long career with stagnant wages ahead of you Followed by a huge boom in salaries once the workforce shrinks. For example, go look at the hourly w

I’m not sure the point you’re trying to make but I’ve had so many junior level interviewees and interactions where they are unable to do anything without an LLM coaching them the whole way. This is dangerous! It’s like if I was hiring a mat
