Re:AI Can Write More of the Code. We Still Have to Engineer the System
on Sunday November 01, 2026 @09:46PM (#50332537)
I honestly kind of disagree. Maybe a more accurate take these days is we still have to engineer the assembly line harness that engineers the system. "KISS" is turning out to be a surprisingly good nudge token to throw at Claude Code.

Come to think of it, if an ASI figures out how to crack biology, genetic diversity may not even need to come from a giant human population.

Because pending an absolute loss of control of a super intelligent model, the ultra wealthy have enough control of the matter on Earth to merge with the AI, probably.

I mean there are a lot of paradoxes around AI. The chief two among which are:
1. the goal of ai is to end capitalism by disrupting scarcity in economics
2. if ai can build a closed system that prints ai factories, the 99% of humanity essentially are just genetic diversity live stock.

Honestly: fuck these people. In the span of a demo they have dogwhistled the market to:
- Build advertising on their platform.
- Build AI girlfriends on their platform.
Gross. I mean it's not like the market isn't already thinking of doing that, it's not a leap of a conclusion. Just kind of gross to be on the nose about it with the content and choice of demos.

I am reminded of Life 3.0 by Max Tegmark, and the Omega Team's later shenanigans in stoking a unified world order:
- Claiming control of all the news outlets
- Pushing a common narrative among all of them, pushing everybody towards basically centrism, de-escalation and a mixture of capitalism and social responsibility.

I think the death of Apple (and the birth of modern Apple) was iOS 7. Skeuomorphism, Steve Jobs being freshly deceased (RIP). The UI looked and felt like an undergraduate design project. The minimalism was pretentious and out of touch, and it's only gotten worse in my opinion.

My only feedback is $49 for AI slop feels like extortion at best, and delusion at worst. Don't give up building stuff, we should all be using AI to build ideas because the cost of developing them has dropped substantially. We should not be using them, however, to grift one another.
