I still research efficient algorithms. You can describe these to LLMs and they do it without any prior art. They just took away the stomach churners. In fact, we probably started a communist revolution in software with anthropic/openai

I am not thrilled to use java, but it really does what it says on the tin. A customer copied the jar file I sent them to their as400 and it just worked. There is nothing quite like it.

It feels like the richer a company is, the dumber their software and more expensive their upkeep gets. Something you could do with optuna in C++ on a single server now requires clusters of GPUs with LLMs at the helm.

It can be about any resource. You get it when two concurrent functions access the resource without a queue, atomic operation or wait, and one of them modifies it.

Who knows? Perhaps attention really is all you need. Maybe our context window is really large. Or our compression is really effective. Perhaps adding external factors might be able to indirectly teach the models to act more in line with soc
