> The speed at which LLM stuff is progressing is insane
You clearly haven't been following the space or maybe following too much.
Because the progress has been pretty slow over the last years.
Yes modals are cheaper and faster but they aren't substantially better.
Over the last years? As in two years or more? Could you explain that a bit more?
I consider "LLM stuff" to be all inclusive of the eco-system of "coding with LLMs" in the current threads context, not specific models.
Would you still say, now that the definition has been clarified, that there has been slow progress in the last 2+ years?
I am also curious if you could clarify where we would need to be today for you to consider it "fast progress"? Maybe there is a generational gap between us in defining fast vs slow progress?
