[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i work in big tech and this article is 1000% true. I'm actually shocked that anyone is questioning it. We have teams working round the clock to build the capabilities for people to build entire industries on AI. Coders just understand how to use it better now.

We are pricing down and saving hard for the future. Get your kids an AI coding app and encourage them to use it. Seriously, get ready ppl.  [/quote]

Can I ask what you are coding for? To do thinking tasks for people? To replace doctors? To replace lawyers? To make research and writing easier? What exactly do you want the code to do and most importantly why?to what end?[/quote]

Why can’t “tech” people ever give specifics?[/quote]

That's ludicrous. Tech people work in public more than any other knowledge workers. If you're interested in what's happening in terms of research, the legal industry, the medical industry, or anything else, you can find tons out there on exactly what's being done and how fast it's progressing on benchmarks. It doesn't matter what specific product the last poster was working on. [/quote]

People in this thread are asking really basic questions that can't be answered other than "you can find tons out there."  Tons of WHAT??  What did AI build [b]without [/b]human direction?[/quote]Here's a funny/scary one. An AI wrote a blog article falsely accusing a human of malfeasance.

The human target says this is the first wave of what could become AI blackmail. So looks like blackmailers are going to be replaced too.

But how dumb are the coders that they can’t code that out?[/quote]AI isn't an algorithm. It's more like a self-directed repository of knowledge. [/quote]

But coders built in the self-direction.  And maybe they forgot to add some lines, or aren’t wise enough to know that it needs guardrails.  Shouldn’t there be some level of responsibility that Tech takes when they make stuff, but all they do is “move fast and break things”. Even the Kindergartners I teach know they are responsible for something they make.  So where are you tech bros? Why are you immune to consequences?[/quote]
