Recently started testing paid Calude Sonnet and Opus 4. That code looks wayyyyyyy better than Chat GPT 3, 4o, 4.5, or any other OpenAI model.

That’s the thing ai doesn’t need to replace a dev directly but if it makes them 20% percent more efficient, that means at some point an executive will have to make a decision. I can deliver the same with 20% less of our workforce, save the company millions and get a fat bonus. Or They could allocate those to accelerate other areas. Now imagine this happening at scale over the largest compan…

>you can't fire everyone. But why shouldn't they fire this person? If the AI can review books as good as they can, aren't they redundant? Couldn't the NYT just use the AI themselves and get all the book reviews they need? Why pay this particular person for a task they no longer perform? You know the answer of course, AI output is inferior and so is anyone who relies on it. But you won't admi…

I work at a company that is leaning heavily into AI and two things are true: productivity has increased dramatically and token use is expensive as hell. To mitigate the latter, we’re exploring things like local models that can run on our laptops for certain tasks and a prompt routing system that optimizes token usage (Cloudflare does this and recently posted a blog about their implementation). …

Thanks for this Cal, we really need AI reality check each week nowadays, lots of bullshit going on around.

13:15 i feel like a better way to phrase it would be AI art isnt Willingly being consumed. its still consumed by accident in normie and older people's circles due to a lack of awareness and low standards. nobody actively seeks AI but we still encounter it due to sheer quantity.

I think the funniest thing about the AI boom from an external perspective is it looks like a civilization going nuts and making monoliths to some 40k esque chaos god

Whenever you try to tell an ai ”artist” this, I swear it’s always the same ”I don’t know how to draw” and if you tell them to learn how to draw, ”I don’t have time to learn” when you tell them it doesn’t matter, any real art is better art than anything an ai can generate you get a ”I just want to look at the picture I made”. When you say, okay, then don’t call yourself an artist, it’s, ”why are y…

Yep... AI will always produce bad art. Probably. But children being born now will grow up consuming AI art and thinking it's okay, purely out of conditioning. So companies won't invest in expensive and slow (albeit better) human artists when they can sell fast, sloppy AI art. And yes, most people already consume sloppy art now, anyway.

Google employees are suffering AND Google is also suffering and AI is getting outed? An Epic Win!

Growing up I wanted to be an artist. I didn’t because everyone told me I’d never have a job. I instead got a degree in UX design — just in time for the entire industry to be replaced with AI. So after years of unemployment and crappy part time work, I went back to school. Business school. There’s always jobs in business, I thought. I studied supply chain, because that’s where the most jobs were.…

Of course, it's possible for an AI to have misaligned goals, but I think that motivation is just as hard as intelligence. Reinforcement learning algorithms are notorious for finding weird cheats to satisfy the training objective without really doing the task we want. If we produce the "paperclip maximizer", yeah, maybe it will dismantle our cities and destroy humanity to get the raw materials for…

The reason why people are mad at AI is because it's stealing. AI didn't come up with the art, it learns from other artist's ORIGINAL artstyle! Digital or traditional doesn't really matter as long as you made it yourself

This should be a high view story! Thank you Miss Amy and Miss Krystal. Excellent reporting, billionaires always be lying and conniving. But, one day they won't be able to lie their way out of what they've done!

Robot: “Awesome, Way to Go!!” Also Robot: “Aims at human; Fire in the Hole” ☠️☠️☠️☠️

The biggest problem about AI in my opinion is that it takes serious self moderation to use. A lot of people claim to use it as a tool, and it certainly can be used as a tool (I have personally used it in the past to generate reference pictures, but it may also be used to generate color pallets or mood boards). The issue is that the line between aiding creativity and replacing creativity is so thi…

The main flaw of AI is that it's not actually fully intelligent if at all. If the goal is to emulate human intelligence then it's going to be impossible because human intelligence is not formed by just gathering data, it's formed through the five senses on top of emotional response.

“How soon can I retire?” is a question we used to ask ourselves, at least my generation. I’m 65. Well, I am retired and it’s fantastic. While I’m not wealthy, I have enough to live on. If AI can provide this, it will be wonderful, believe me.

Fuck any company that uses Ai for customer service. That shit is infuriating to speak with and doesn’t resolve shit and takes me in a loop. Boycott any company that uses AI for that purpose.

The extra insult to injury was them posting their stupid AI llamas on their Twitter feed after the whole ordeal. Just trucking along like nothing happened, and doubling down. I deleted all my work, canceled my core subscription, and deleted my entire account. If it wasn't so sad and distressing, it would almost be comical that they betrayed the trust of the community for this.
