Let's not sugar coat it. The problem is 100% technical. Detecting unexpected charges, scaling and restriction in real time is hard. It's easier to just charge people money than come up with good ways to avoid charging them , and

> I've written a lot of tests, I think this would have taken 3-4x longer to do by hand. Surely an hour? I guess my point is I'm skeptical. I don't believe what you had the end would have taken you that long to do by hand.

So you spend 10 minutes writing a free text description of the test you want; tell it exactly how you want it to write the test, and then 4-5 minutes trying to understand if it did the right thing or not, restart because it did something cr

To be fair, the overwhelming feedback appears to be that people dont want a general purpose chatbot in every product and website , especially when it's labelled 'AI'. So... certainly there's a space for new products.

Yes, quite so, but it probably has almost nothing to do with absolute typing speed. There’s a marginal difference between an editor where you can type quickly and one where you can only type fast. We’re not talking about the difference betw

I’m not saying it useless. I’m just saying it’s not a piano. Do you play music? Don’t you use your keyboard as a midi input? That’s what most musicians do. /shrug I’m not sure what point you’re trying make, but the point you did make

Sounds fun, but meaningless. As with the wide array of VR instruments (that also use highly accurate position tracking as inputs), what it really boils down to is: If you are procedurally generating audio (ie. using a synth) on device then

I again, can’t comprehend how this can possibly be ambiguous from my comment, but the second one. We don’t (by all accounts, no one does ) have a way to create this kind of dataset at scale, in this kind of complex user contributed content

Re: AI If you’ve used any canvas style app you’ll fully appreciate that zooming out and then zooming back in is almost without fail the way people navigate. Even visual code editors. You’ve used the unreal blueprint editor right? They do no

In order for the canvas to be meaningful, the individual code windows need to be related to each other; eg. like a visual programming language or a notebook, with sockets and connectors. Otherwise, it needs to be more like canva / miro
