Not really, no. That's not even the point. Say for example they're just the same level of security. Then what value does a human even offer to a company if AI can do the same quality of work faster? It's not as if the company

That’s one person’s opinion, yours, and not the market’s.

Is there room for people who are already in the acceptance phase? We started aggressively adopting AI in my company this year. I think I disliked (though never hated) it for a few days, but it’s a systemic change that I can’t just push back

Am I crazy, or are these differences between the best models so marginal that you’d get roughly the same performance if you use the same high-quality harness (ie preloaded instructions from md files, including custom skills)?

Show your code, or show you the door. There are so many native Mac and iOS apps out there right now perfectly capable of rendering Markdown and streaming text. You just gotta wonder what is this guy’s excuse.

Affordability of hardware that can run local LLMs is a real factor, too. Not sure when RAM prices are going down, but with everything that’s happening and can happen in the world right now, it doesn’t look like it’ll drop in the near or med

I don’t have anything to add to your comment, but I have no means to bookmark it either other than by replying. You’ve put into words exactly what I think.

Dear god no, I actually want AI to write the code that integrates my unit-testable abstractions into the existing spaghetti. I don’t care how it does it, the thing just needs to work. The moron that wrote the mess didn’t care enough to begi

Nothing, they’re the same garbage for developers who can’t be bothered to mindfully use AI when writing code, and then complain about mass layoffs

As someone in this space, I think that devs haven’t realized yet that they can’t just use open source skills or agents out of the box. They likely have intricate rules and restrictions in their industry or company culture that they need to

That’s not related to the subject at hand, which is regulation preventing anti-competitive practices in monopolies and market failures. I thought that was clearly established, or you need to be over-prompted

I don’t believe that the government should police what types of computers I can build. I occasionally tinker with hardware myself and have been thinking up ways to build a smartphone differently. If I want to make the device so that it only

Lol SwiftUI/Jetpack/WPF aren’t design tools, they’re for writing native UI code. They’re simply not the right tool for building mockups. I don’t see how design workflows matter in the conversation about cross-platform vs native an

Yes but that’s why you ask it to teach you what it just did. And then you fact-check with external resources on the side. That’s how learning works.

You guys are completely missing the point. It's not about getting your details right. It's about what will be done with you when the AI's inferences are wrong.

by rTX5CMRXIfFG 6mo ago
The point isn't to get it right. It's about what people with more power and capital than you will do when the AI makes the wrong inferences about you.

That’s not the point being argued either, nor it being perfect. It’s just about Apple’s UI frameworks being more coherent and consistent across all their own platforms, unlike Microsoft. Even Android developers who’ve done a bit of work on

Heh, the fact that they aren’t mutually exclusive is the problem. Why give someone with mass surveillance ops in other domains access to yet another domain?

That's outright false: https://www.swift.org/blog/swift-at-apple-migrating-the-pass... You could have easily fact-checked before forming an opinion, but at least the buffoon down there agreeing with you is worse

Historical data is never a guarantee of future performance. The downside of your attitude is that you can’t really point at the right thing to do, so then you invest your time and effort on the same things, when it could be the case that th

If it ever goes bad, well I hope that that’s an impetus for new open source projects to be started — and with improvements over and lessons learned from incumbent technologies, right at the v1 of said projects.

Funny that you say that because of all the big tech companies, Apple has the best track record at fighting for consumer privacy. And you certainly cannot say that for any of the car makers that currently have an EV lineup.
