There has to be a PDF of this somewhere, right?

Capitalism creates people like this. Everyone is desperate to escape the "rat race".

Oprah enabled so many shitty people.

It seems like only shitty people are successful.

That party trick is shipping code and is good enough to replace thousands of developers at Microsoft and other companies. Maybe that says something about how common production programming problems are. A lot of business code boils down to putting things in and pulling things out of databases or moving data around via API calls and other communication methods. This tool handles that kind of work with ease.

If AI actually did what you think it does then why would the capitalist class support it?

Because server farms are cheaper than hiring developers, artists, writers, etc.? Capitalists don't care about the environmental impacts as long as their bottom line isn't affected.

This technology is killing jobs. Thousands are being laid off at Microsoft this month on top of layoffs at lots of other tech companies. The field I went to college to learn is cooked. There's already thousands of over qualified people applying to the few jobs that are left. This is a way bigger deal than Crypto and another way for the owning class to hoard more wealth for themselves at the expense of us working class folks.

That may have been a bad example because for recipes it could just search the web and infer that vegetables go with olive oil for a stir fry. Where it's impressed me so far is in taking a piece of complex code and being able to refactor it, add features, write unit tests, and write up development plans. That text doesn't exist. It has to do some form of reasoning to interpret the code and come up with solutions for that particular problem.

At risk of sounding ignorant...

There has to be more to it than that, right? I mean these tools can write working code in whatever language I need, using the libraries I specify, and it just spits out this code in seconds. The code is 90% of the way there.

LLMs can also read charts and correctly assess what's going on, can create stock trading strategies using recent data, can create recipes that work implying some level of understanding of how to cook, etc. It's kinda scary how much these things can do. Now that my job is training these models I see how far they've come in just coding, and they will 100% replace a LOT of developers.

I assume Black Rifle Coffee is a similar deal
