OMG if this is true, do you realize what this means? The easiest way to do AI SEO is to generate all your content with AI, and we've seen what SEO does to the web... The Internet is doomed. Time to start some human-only darknets.

Substantial displacement of human labor is still very far away, yes, but I'd say it's not due to the lack of dexterity and precision. GenAI is making such rapid advancements that the robotic control systems part may soon be "

Too soon to tell if it'll lead to "fulfilling careers" but both my kids learnt Scratch very early on, in the 2nd grade or so, and found they had a knack for programming. Based on that I prodded them to dabble in Python. Now i

Oh, interesting, is this based on your experience, or is there a reference I could look up? My layman intuition is better grounding should result in more accurate results, is that not the same as better reasoning?

As other comments here point out, that's how it always was and always should be. Accountability is an intrinsic part of any professional role. But maybe because it was always implicit (presumably since it's just so obvious!) peopl

Very cool. I recall an HN submission (which I can't find offhand unfortunately) that did something similar -- it used an LLM to decompose articles into a set of statements which were used to construct an entity-relationship graph of fa

Counterpoints: 1. Depending on the data source you look at, about 50 - 60% of people use AI at work but only for 5 - 15% of work hours. That leaves about 2x (from users) times 7 - 20x (from work hours) for growth. Furthermore agentic usage

Yep, I've been having excellent experiences with the models even from the 2023 era. They required a lot of "holding it right" (mostly: being very precise in what went into the context) but their raw coding capabilities were a

Yes, a new economic system will have to be devised for an era of abundance, although I think that is still quite a ways away, even with an AI-accelerated timeline. (Robots and abundant compute and unlimited energy will be severely constrain

I think you're talking about the flow state, which makes sense. I've said it before there was an aspect to programming that was almost meditative, that zone where ideas flow easily into code. I do miss that experience. (I also sus

My interpretation of the argument is "Humans are also non-deterministic, but we make organizations work on a daily basis despite that. We could do the same with LLMs, which may in fact turn out to be less non-deterministic than humans.

Yes, but once you have the solution crystalized in your head do you not feel some frustration in not getting it implemented as soon as possible? I often found myself impatient in getting something I knew would work to actually work, and i
