            <description>recommended reading.

&gt; On that last point, this technology is horrific for attention

&gt; I have no idea how to manage AI at present except by curtailing use, because a tool producing a cheap reward with minimal input and no friction can only be a liability, and achieving that realisation is probably the only real contribution of AI to date.

            <description>recommended reading. i too am very done with people anthropomorphizing a bunch of matrices on a GPU cluster, especially if the same people do not give two fucks about actual human beings.

flicker company is the biggest offender here, with their &quot;model wellbeing&quot; bullshit, while simultaniously telling real humans &quot;we are making you obsolete, and no, we have no alternative plan for you, suck it&quot;.

fuck that.</description>

on memory/continual learning, he&apos;s very clear that that will be an app level thing, not a model thing, because it&apos;s not practical, economical or even possible to fine tune per user models.

i think we&apos;ll find a lot of other limitations that can never be solved in the model layer,</description>

            <description>recommended viewing. love the insights on distillation and edge inference. i want that.

otoh you have the host claiming &quot;engineers are now 500-1000x more productive&quot;

🫠

at around 16:15 he roasts the army of agents folks. it&apos;s hilarious.

&quot;we still need craft and human taste. why haven&apos;t we seen a kid make a hit game? we aren&apos;t there yet.&quot;

this coming from someone who deeply knows the entire stack down to the machine level should give you pause.

i love him.</description>

            <description>Recommended reading on agents + LSP. Nuanced provides code intelligence tools to agents. First measured, whether the agent used to tool consistently. Then whether it was able to be better/more efficient with the tool.

&quot;An agent isn&apos;t just a LLM in a while loop. It&apos;s an LLM in a while loop that has a computer strapped to it.&quot;

            <title>Recommended reading. Three notes.

OP doesn&apos;t let the LLM go wild, but uses it deliberately to generate self contained things they disect.

I still find value in coding by hand. Coding is a mode of thinking, just like writting is a mode of thinking for a writer. It&apos;s a way for me</title>

This resonates. As an ex-(shitty)-ML researcher, I marvel at the scientific achievement. As a programmer, I try to find ways to make them useful.
