Are humans just Phd students in a vat? Can a SOTA model walk? Humans in general find that task, along with a trillion other tasks that SOTA models cannot do, to be absolutely trivial.

> Think hard about this. Does that seem to you like it's likely to be a physical law? Yes, it seems likely to me. It seems like the ultimate in hubris to assume we are capable of creating something we are not capable of ourselves.

It's already happening. For years now, but it's obviously accelerated. Look at how certain posts and announcements somehow get tens if not hundreds of upvotes in the span of a few minutes, with random comments full of praise which

I never said the model developers should be responsible. I said service providers . If someone downloads a local model and breaks the law, the responsibility is solely on the user. But if someone uses a service provider to break the law, t

Idk, I use Zed because it's so dang smooth. On a 144hz screen it feels really nice to use, other editors like v$code and IntelliJ have noticeable stutter and I find that to be distracting, in the same way it's jarring to go back t

No, I don't even use agents to generate code most of the time. I mainly use the inline assistant to modify or fill out blocks of code, and agents sometimes for refactors, asking questions, search, debugging, generating documentation et
