So far most of the "discussion" on this thread is why did he post this. He just posted what he thought others missed, if people find it useless it will further down the page. TLDR, I find the comments under that thread questioning

>> Any definitive claim to know what are the right things kids should learn in a moment of rapid technological shift is probably garbage and just a projection of our own biases. I'm not really sure what point you are making here.

Also house is built in 1890s. Had renovations, but who knows how much more work it needs.

Totally agree! For anyone who still thinks kids should use AI, another argument to make is we are still figuring out AI (hence the constant debate on it, hype, uncertainty, boundaries of its capabilities etc etc). I don't think anyone

You can switch to local models for tasks/use-cases where you don't need top tier models.

By that logic, most politicians making election promises didn’t lie or under delivered. They just changed their minds.

What are you saying then? Don't question or point out things that seem weird? Drink the kool-aid?

dot-com bubble? It's less about black or white, and more about how much of it. Nothing weird to me about caring given how it all also impacts peoples lives and much wilder all these numbers are becoming.

Its a polarizing world with AI. There are fanboys drinking the kool-aid blindly listening to whatever Sammy/Dario/... say as gospel, and on other side there are haters who again blindly reject the fact that these AI tools can be a

What's your basis for assuming LLM is capable of doing this? I honestly don't know personally either way. Based on my limited understanding of how LLMs work, I don't see them be making the next great song or next great book a

Or maybe you just aren't that good of an engineer (or whatever profession you are into) and find the easiest group to blame on your failures. I found that people who often are quick to judge and group of people in one bucket based on t

You are right about that but that's talking about what you generate but not what the output does. My point is that the compilers still designed to preserve semantic equivalence. semantic equivalence makes sense here because there are s

Yeah, and all the little quirks here and there I had with emacs or things that I wish I had in workflow, I can just fix/have it without worrying about spending too much time (except sometimes maybe). The full Emacs potential I felt I w
