Even if we assume for a moment everything you are saying is true and/or reasonable, can't you see how comments like these paint your position here in a bad light? It just reads a little desperate!

It might be just different viewpoints people don't understand?

I'm advocating for spending time with AI because it works already good enough and it continues to progress surprisingly fast. Unexperienced fast for me tbh.

If i say "AI is great" i also know when AI is also stupid but i'm already/stil so impressed that i can transform basic text into working go/java whatever code, that i accept that its not perfect just because I highly appreciate how fast we got this.

And it feels weird too tbh. It doesn't feel special to talk to an LLM and get code back somehow while this was unthinkable just a few years back.

Somethimes it likes you just forget about all these facts and have to remind yourself that this is something new.

  • Just because it’s “new” doesn’t mean it’s going to fulfill all our wildest fantasies. It’s becoming clear that these things are just… tools. Useful in certain situations, but ultimately not the game-changer they’re sold as.

    • For me its getting clear that there is so much broad ways of continues improvement, and constant speed, that if this continues like this, even a basic LLM can do a lot of jobs.

      Just today cursor released a blog were they run an agent for a week and it build a browser.

      Claude Code with subagents and hooks are really good too.

      And it takes time to just get it and roll it out to everyone, it takes time to do research, experiments, it takes time to install GPUs and make them etc.

      We are currently only limited by things we can progress on.
