In the old days you could just call someone a goddamn noob. Suleyman is a goddamn noob. He can't code for shit, so it's no wonder he doesn't understand the programmer's point of view, he can't understand why people are not as enthusiastic as he is. I am a programmer and I take pride in my work; I don't want an AI or anybody to do it for me. Of course, you wouldn't understand that if you're a noob, but that's fine. What's not fine is when you cross the line and you think you're hot shit when, in fact, you're still just a goddamn noob. Nobody wants to hear your shit; your opinion is irrelevant.
I'm surprised Suleyman is the CEO of anything, for that matter. Does he have any interesting opinions on anything?
Companies care about output, not code typed out by programmers. Most of the code I write now is generated, and I’m “writing” more code than ever, and better tests. Many devs I know are doing the same with generative AI. Why isn’t that a win?
My job is to build systems that work. Code is a liability sometimes needed to accomplish that. I don't want more of it unless there's some reason to believe the benefits outweigh the liability. Based on what I'm able to get from LLMs and especially what I'm seeing produced by others I know are using them, that's not often the case with agents.
Because that’s precisely what’s wrong with AI. It creates a lot of code, what could have been done with fewer code, or no code at all if you didn’t go on path A with AI, but thought about path B yourself.
AI on Windows would be great, but for the stuff that matters, in a transparent way.
First of all, don't use AI to yet another reason for people to throw away perfectly working computers, and helping the OEM buddies sell CoPilot+ PC, many GPUs can do the same job, and they are castrating on purpose, even with Windows ML reboot.
Secondly it should be transparent, for stuff like handwriting recognition, OCR, image search, speech, and such.
Not to fix a broken search that was working perfectly fine on Windows 7, or to surveil everything I do, getting the info into Microsoft servers and US government.
Better at what though? Maybe he's just great at getting hired and promoted, without the benefit of actual skills or deep understanding of anything, and now finds himself in ignorance of all that he surveys. I've known many people like that.
