Luckily the AI artists can set up their own conventions. Considering how unevitable AI art is, I think the cons will be absolutely swarming with visitors!

It’s impressive how every iteration tries to get further from pretending actual AGI would be anywhere close when we are basically writing library functions with the worst DSL known to man, markdown-with-english.

Funny how the article states that "LLMs can be excellent editors" and then the post repeats all the mistakes that no editor would make: 1. Because reading posts like this 2. Is actually frustrating as hell 3. When everything gets

Don't "no coders" find the concepts described in this article imdimitating? The article states that whatever the article is trying to describe "Takes about ~20-30 mins. The cognitive load is high....". while their l

I love how the proposed solution is to essentially gaslighting the model to think that it's an expert programmer and then specify and re-specify the prompt until the solution is essentially inefficient pseudocode. Now we are in a world

Love to see it. Especially locking out security features like SSO behind enterprise-talk-to-sales paywalls is basically extortion and hopefully a practise that will go away someday… but as long as the fuck-you-pay-me mentality exists, I don

The real key takeaway here is that Microsoft could fix this of they wanted: they have near infinite resources, the best people and more heavily invested in open source than anyone else in the business, but still refuse to even comment on th

Dropbox Paper was the best Notepad-like app in the market, only to Dropbox to completely stop developing it almost immediately and then eventually making it worse by making it Dropbox-backed and now killing the app. It's a shame really

GPT-5 is just OpenAI getting started. Just wait and see what GPT-6 is capable of and imagine that GTP-6 is just OpenAI getting started: if GPT-6 was a high school student, GPT-7 is an expert with masters degree; but GPT-7 is OpenAI getting

Personally looking at the documentation I would say that "no good documentation" is highly misleading, because the documentation that it provides is incredibly detailed from quick starts to detailed explanations, offers a lot of e

There’s always a distinct lack of the names in the posts like this. What was the library that was being changed to what? You say it had ”no good documentation”, but it clearly has some sort of documentation considering the LLM did such a go

The MRR archive is probably the single most important collection in the field of punk music and I am glad that it has found a (hopefully) permanently safe home. Would be amazing if Center for Popular Music would digitize the materials - wit

Designers and frontend developers don’t struggle with those. That’s why they are designers and frontend developers. Before those 3 months you mentioned, how much did you spend time coding on average (at work, or as a hobby) percentagewise?

People have grown to expect at least adequate performance from products that cost up to 39 dollars a month (* additional costs) per user. In the past you would have called this a tech demo at best.

GitHub has spent billions of dollars building an AI that struggles with things like whitespace related linting errors on one of the most mature repositories available. This would be probably okay for a hobbyist experiment, but they are sell

Documentation is not just translating code to text - I don't doubt that LLMs are wonderful at that: that's what they understand. They don't understand users though, and that's what separates a great documentation writer

What about developers who do enjoy writing for example high quality documentation? Do you expect that the status quo will be that most of the documentation will be AI slop and AI itself will just bruteforce itself through the issues? How c

It's easy to draw lines to other industries from this too, mainly to music one. The mainstream does not produce or provide to those that would rather do something more interesting or niche, unless the niche becomes popular enough that
