TBH I don't get the narrative there either. Earlier it was about how regular people can now build many types of software for themselves (and btw, I agree with this), but somehow the narrative has shifted to something like "regular software engineers would work with the customer to develop applications", which makes a lot less sense.
Use the existing Slop they have that needs 1GB of Ram for a simple Terminal app to create an even more slopped Linux app... If only they had any devs at their 500K and way up pay package that could actually write a simple app, that you know does not suck.
Torment doomers claim that the commodification of humanity’s suffering will usher in a dark age, but quarterly earnings have never been higher. I trust that Death Star Inc has humanity’s best interests at heart.
Even if you can create infinite software you still have to be very intentional about what you’re choosing to work on.
There’s still a cost to testing, support, planning, etc even if coding is now “free”
Anthropic claims 8-fold productivity increase since 2025. If even that isn't enough to enable support for Linux, I don't know what it is.
If only Anthropic had some kind of automated testing, support, planning machine.
Imagine if cutting edge AI companies could decide to using their world best AI to
1) Develop software for linux
2) Provide decent support
If there were any truth to the marketing stories that say they have such a thing, then they could indeed.
It doesn't sound like that's the bottleneck.
You forgot the *allegedly in there.
Sorry that's not the use case anymore its about (checks notes) "forward deployed engineers", yep that's it. Go build!

Those highly paid human devs are hard at work on the Torment Nexus, which is their priority of course, you don't want China to win do you?

You’re asking too much.
