I would assume that it would be able to make those assumptions based on the questions you ask it, but OpenAI would never allow an LLM to answer those types of inquiries. That would obviously cross some boundaries. I find it strange that hav

I just asked ChatGPT. "Based on everything I've asked, how old do you think I am?" It was dead-on with its answer. It guessed 30-35. I'm 32. That was just a spur-of-the-moment question. I've been using ChatGPT for o

The best developer I've ever worked with had a degree in Philosophy. He leveraged React in a way that was elegant back when React was still fairly new. It was super hard to scaffold back then, but we got it done and completed a pretty

I think stranger things have happened, but I don't really believe this is all that likely. Windows has sucked for 30 years now; tacking on another 15 probably won't change all that much about the current state of things. Microsoft

Wow, this is interesting to see. I thought jQuery was dead. My next question would be, is this something that OpenAI and Anthropic would train their data on? If I ask Claude Code to write an app and utilize jQuery, would it resolve to the p

Yeah, that was the point of my post. LLMs traditionally aren't used in gaming like this.

Sure, the world still needs software. Perhaps even more so now with the advent of AI. There's still a ridiculously minuscule chance that you'll end up profitable, let alone successful. I read that software, from a business perspe

This was an interesting application of AI, but I don't really think this is what LLMs excel at. Correct me if I'm wrong. It was interesting that the poster vibe-coded (I'm assuming) the CTL from scratch; Claude was probably p

Hardware bugs can be documented for an LLM to learn from; it's really just a chicken-and-egg problem. There are plenty of open-source, working operating systems for LLMs to learn from as well. And yes, I understand code re-use and dist

I found it interesting that the OP defaulted to using an AI agent for his voice recording software rather than doing a Google search. Perhaps a sign of things to come? I would've chosen Google, but maybe I'll be falling behind in

I wonder if the future of AI is that we all just create our own programs out of thin air like this. Like if I need something, I just describe it to AI, and within seconds, it's generated and ready to use. Operating systems become redun

That's my point, Apple has invested so much into Siri that there's no reason why it's not the most advanced LLM in the world. They missed the mark completely. Why? If Jobs were still in charge, the entire team would have been

I don't really want to continue on with this discussion, as AI in general can be absolutely infuriating. It's one of those buzzwords that's just being thrown around without a care in the world at this point, but do you have a

I appreciate the response, but that doesn't really answer my question. I want to know why the executive leadership at Apple failed to see LLMs as the future of AI. ChatGPT and Gemini are what Siri should be at this point. Siri was one

Can someone explain to me how this was allowed to happen? Wasn't Siri supposed to be the leading AI agent not ten years ago? How was there such a large disconnect at Apple between what Siri could do and what "real" AI was soo

This was my experience using StackOverflow. I've commented, asked questions, and received answers. Aside from a few questionable downvotes I received occasionally, I never felt like the community was toxic.

Ideally, you'd train them on the core documentation of the language or tool itself. Hopefully, LLMs lead to more thorough documentation at the start of a new language, framework, or tool. Perhaps to the point of the documentation being

I actually disagree; the only way to get to the bottom of any wrongdoing here would be to do an external audit of their systems. That can get expensive and complicated. Using cryptocurrency with on-chain verification of the paper trail coul
