I'm not sure where the complexity is hiding in my examples. For the code generation, note that some types are almost impossible to express properly, but code can be generated using simpler types that capture all the same constraints t

The amusing things LLMs do when they have been at a problem for some time and cannot fix it: - Removing problematic tests altogether - Making up libs - Providing a stub and asking you to fill in the code

But don't they keep forgetting the instructions after enough time have passed? How do you get around that? Do you add an instruction that after every action it should go back and read the instructions gain?

> complexity very bad Oh boy, this is so true. In all my years of software engineering this is one of those ideas that has proved consistently true in every single situation. Some problems are inherently complex, yes, but even then you&#

October 7th is looking more and more like a disastrous move by Israel's enemies. Sounds like every time Israel enemies attack it they end up losing more ground, and yet they never stop to try another way. They handed Israel the perfect

This particular Claude is obviously not a fan of test driven development.

And this is exactly thinking AI is going to make human thought and skill redundant is crazy. LLMs can never get to a point where you whip them up to solve any general intellectual challenge. Even creating CRUD apps (that are well-behaved, s

Yep, looks like the return of regular airline crashes. The 2010s will probably be the apogee of airline safety for some time to come.

After like the 20th time explaining the same (simple) problem to the AI that it is unable to fix, you just might change your mind [1]. At that point you just have to jump in and get dirty. Do this a few times and you start to realize it is

I finally tried Claude Code for most of last week on a toy Typescript project of moderate complexity. It's supposedly the pinnacle of agentic coding assistants, and I tend to agree, finding it far ahead of Copilot et al. Seeing it work

I agree. One other problem with the death-necessary-for-change mantra is that it assumes very change is good. There have been plenty of changes in recent memory that have been disastrous.

Will he nuke Ukraine, and risk all out war with the West, WW3, kill his babies, and nullify all the gains Russia has had in this war so far? Because, trust me, all hell WILL break loose if he does that, even in a sparsely populated area. Th

Russia is raining deadly missiles on Ukraine regardless. Do you really think Russia is limiting their attacks on Ukraine because of some benevolence? > Lesser Power will doubt the threat, call the bluff, and future Lesser Powers will not

Not really a counter-argument. The abstraction over assembly language is solid; compilers very rarely (if at all) fail to translate high level code into the correct assembly code. LLMs are nowhere near the level where you can have almost 10

Technology improving is not the issue. 1. LLM fanboy: "LLMs are awesome, they can do x, y, and z really well." 2. LLM skeptic: "OK, but I tried them and found them wanting for doing x, y, and z" 3. LLM fanboy: "You&

I couldn't agree more. This has been my exact experience. Like you I'll probably write a blog post and show, prompt by prompt, just how shockingly bad Claude frequently is. And it's supposed to be one of the best at AI assist

This is one of the best comments about the current AI hype. The elite really don't see why the proletariat should be interested in, or enjoy the dignity of, actual skill and quality. Hence the enshitification of everything, and now AI
