It's not always larger models. Often time it's a smaller model fit for a specific use case. In the future we will see 16B models that are for : Legal, Healthcare, Science, Software Engineering, Education, Forestry, Music producti

Such a massive leap at averaging possible use cases from previous data collected. My guess is : collect all the prompt and their satisfaction score. group them by similarity . For each group pretrain the next model on that . Get these resul

I really would like to be a fly on wall during these executive meetings? Here is what i realized. Spaghetti code written by 5 developers will need 5 + 1 developers to manage. Same in the AI age spaghetti systems built by agents, will need

First impression. It seems smarter at synthesing information faster. Something Gemini was really good at but it does it better. It speaks more naturally, unlike claude which litteraly just vomit jargon and random analogies. It's very e

How long before they change the terms and conditions to subtly claim ownership of your files? When you write code they already insert Co author attribution/ Say I write a text by hand And then I tell it to clean up the grammar and fix

The human brain is fascinating Three years ago The idea of having A robot writing production level code in 10 minutes that would have needed a team of 5 people and 2 months. Was pure Scifi Now it's boring , not good enough Wow there sh

When it's overly verbose like that. Does that count against your usage as well? Also during its thinking does it output hidden thinking tokens? I am now wondering

I wonder if the project you build are more one off Disposable(sorry for my choice of words) software. Do you have project that needs to be maintained. I am also interested in your workflow. Do you Vibe code , never look at the code or do

We used to get paid to code now we think we need to pay a subscription fee just to write software. They push marketing campaigns saying Manual coding no more, just vibe code, gain 10x speed for $100. Then they hit you with hourly and weekl

remember 4 year ago we use to : have stack overflow open, documentation, obscure forums plus other tabs. An ide open with 20 tabs open each file a component, a class or an interface We also use to hold entire codebases in our brain.

How many big tech companies let you talk to a human to get support. Automation is wonderful to cut cost for them but for the users being unable to get support is a horrible experience. But you cannot go elsewhere because they are the only

This is wonderful and amazing. Computing can be very simple. I think constraints and hardware restrictions can unlock creativity. Imagine running an GPT-3 Generation model on a raspberry pi . This would be great

It's a very insidious, first you look all over your neighborhood flock cameras Hundreds of them came out of nowhere Nobody fought back . it's as long as you're not doing anything wrong you don't have to worry about it

That make sense. Let me ask you this When the project reaches a level of complexity . Do you simply reach for better models or do you reengineer it or does the project scope stop at the egdge of the model's capabilities. I am asking b

Any model currently in 2026 is better than the ones of 2024. What is the quality difference really. I mean i think if a developer has a good handle of the code the difference is marginal . Unless we 100% offload the thinking to the model

If it was up to companies selling subscriptions. Nobody should even look at the code anymore. Just spend 200 bucks each month and you will be all set. I admit i use AI for coding definitely too but after getting disillusioned with it. I wi

After 2+ years of using LLM agents to write code for me , I had to reclaim my engineering skills. It was so easy to create 50+ project with a sleek ui, but i could not explain any of them. It was easier to start a new project from scratch

Define criminal ? In the USA Under laws like the Fugitive Slave Act of 1793 and 1850, an enslaved human who escaped was considered a criminal. Sheltering humans running away from slavery was also a crime . It was illegal for black Americans

They are now vibeathons. Same thing but now it's how much do you write by hand, it's how much can you delegate to the LLM while you're writing by hand. That act of juggling has become an important part. People will just

Let’s consider *Sub-Saharan Africa* (itself a label that lumps dozens of distinct civilizations into a single “other” category). These societies kept records not folk tales, not vague legends, but structured historical accounts. * The King
