You could say both. You could also say, "three different coloured M&Ms and a slush puppie". π€·ββοΈπ€¦
Still are. π€·ββοΈ
Great video ππ. I also enjoyed the struggle of solving problems, but now I'm loving being able to realise ideas so much more quickly.
I used to have a lot of product ideas that went nowhere because of time constraints. Now I can whip up loads of POCs, throw them into the wild, & see what sticks.
The question for me is, does it matter if its conciousness or pseudo-conciousness that's indistinguishable from conciousness? π€·ββοΈ
With good reason. ;)
Yup. Having a magic wand for building software is pretty cool. NGL.
Got my first EV a month ago and love it!!
Iβm in South Africa and we have great weather and I have solar panels, so most of my charging costs nothing (ignoring solar capex which pays itself back in 5 years). And saving money on home electricity as well. π
But what took ages to do in photoshop/figma, then explain to a dev, she can now do herself directly.
Which was my point. With her design skills and Claude Code she can be orders of magnitude more productive.
Different strokes for different folks (and use cases). π
I hear you. My wife is a brilliant front end designer. She is βvibe codingβ like crazy and producing an incredible amount of product.
She guides Claude in the design explains what she wants and itβs brilliant and not AI obvious (because itβs hers).
So I find the anti AI, or even the βit all looks the sameβ argument pointless. Or that βit writes bad codeβ.
Sometimes that matters. Often it doesnβt. π€·ββοΈ
Thing about software is there are nearly unlimited use cases, and different skills of those building software (design, front end, back end etc).
For many use cases, it doesnβt matter that the front end is not unique. Speed of dev is more important for all kinds of reasons (like competition).
It shouldnβt be 40 people let alone 40%.
Super excited to finally have this in people's hands, let us know what you think!
Inertia 3 beta is here! π
This is a big one. New Vite plugin, optimistic updates, standalone HTTP requests, layout props, simplified SSR, and Axios has been replaced with a built-in XHR client.
Here's what's new π§΅
100% it did. A friend of mine got one in 1982 when I was 13. Iβm writing this as I watch Claude Code work. Iβm still doing what the ZX81 started 43 years ago. π€·ββοΈ
1090% agree. I have been creating software since 1982. I thought I loved writing code. Turns out what I really love is creating useful software and thatβs just become orders of magnitude easier and faster. Iβm loving it!!π
Absolutely always plugging in USB-A the right way first time also qualifies.
Then youβre suggesting banning capitalism, because the pursuit of profit is the motivation behind these technological innovations. And on that we agree.
Didnβt happen then, not going to happen now though. Weβve been effectively indoctrinated into believing itβs the only way. π€·ββοΈ
Zero posts bot, but I'll bite for interest.
So we would be better of having permanently banned the motor vehicle? Maybe, but irrelevant since that was never going to happen given the utility. AI is exactly the same. QED.
I had everything to an AI agent - havent written a line of code in months. But I hear you, that was a nightmare before and AI is brilliant at it.
The word "values" stood out for me. Maybe Max preferred to work for a company who is not prepared to have their technology used in the war machione. π€·ββοΈ
The anti AI stance feels like when the Benz Patent-Motorwagen appeared in the 1880s.
It was not immediately celebrated as the dawn of a new era. It was often treated as a curiosity, a nuisance, or even a danger.
The genie is out of the bottle and we couldnβt put it back if we wanted to. π€·ββοΈ
Ah! Got it. My bad. π€·ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ
I thought one of the hills conservatives are prepared to die on is that they donβt have to obey government tyranny?
I thought that was what the unlimited musket allocation was for? π€·ββοΈπ€
Incredible how much models have advanved in a short space of time. Just look at Sonnet 4/Opus 4.1 to Sonnet/Opus 4.6.
The rate of improvement is incredible. Claude Code is one year old. The future is going to be so very differen. ;)
I thought I would miss it. I don't. I love how fast I can go from idea to PoC in the AI age!
A screenshot from https://www.guidelabs.ai/post/steerling-8b-base-model-release/ showing a prompt: βRising ocean temperatures driven by increased atmospheric CO2 have disrupted marine ecosystems, causing coral bleaching events and shifting the migration patterns ofβ An output: βfish species. This has led to a decline in fish populations and the degradation of marine habitats. Additionally, ocean acidification due to the absorption of CO2 is affecting shell-forming organisms such as mollusks and corals, impacting their ability to build and maintain skeletal structures. This could lead to significant consequences for fisheries and coastal communities that rely on these resourcesβ And then a section called βtraining data attributionβ. It attributed 26% to arXiv, 25% to Wikipedia, 17% to Nemotron (syn), 16% to Nemotron (real), 10% to PES2O, and 6% to FLAN.

This is extremely cool. Guide Labs have trained an LLM that can tell you what part of the prompt was most relevant to each part of the output, what concepts it ties to each part of the output, and what part of its training data influenced the output.
I haven't gotten tired of it in 44 years of doing it.
But I've realised that what we do is build useful software that solves problems, not write code - that's was just a necessary part of the process.
Think like an architect, not like a builder.
