you might be retarded my friend

Consider the possibility that the people who make these decisions aren't actually all that smart and are easily manipulated by marketing and the sycophants/impostors they surround themselves with.

as is customary

My calculations tell me that would be a yellow flag.

The (relatively big and successful) tech company I work at, has gradually seen ~all high level decision-making positions filled with PMs, while senior engineers who have been at the company for years are being pushed out and/or leaving. Most of these PMs have very little understanding of the tech, the market, or how software engineering works, yet they now make ~all of the product decisions at the company. I haven't worked on anything remotely useful, or bottom-line impactful in 2 years. I was originally very optimistic about the company and elected to get paid in as much stock (vs cash) as possible... which I now realize was a big mistake.

What does 'interface it with the UI' mean though? How does adding buttons make it easier for the user to work with the AI? The whole point is that users can control it using the most natural and ubiquitous way possible - through natural language.

Yeah, it often makes sense to adjust the user's prompt, add system/wrapper prompts, etc. But that's not really related to UI..

The whole point is the prompt (+ a static set of (system)prompts). If your whole function as a human is clicking one of a set of buttons to trigger an AI action, then you are automate-able in a few lines of code (and the AI is better than you at deciding which button to click anyway (supposedly)).

There are like thousands wrappers around LLMs masquerading as AI apps for specialized usecases, but the real performance of these apps is really only bottlenecked by the LLM performance, and their UIs generally only get in the way of the direct LLM access/feedback loop.

To work with LLMs effectively you need to understand how to craft good prompts, and how to read/debug the responses.

> I still like the Canadian approach that to have a title with the word Engineer in it you have to be licensed by the engineering regulator for the province you work in.

That's just not true.

(Despite what Engineers Canada and related parasites tell you.)

Steam on (arch)linux works so well these days, I haven't needed windows for gaming in a while.

same thing

How many of these 'this new LLM version is super amazing' stories are paid for?

Which acts are you referring to? Care to elaborate?

> My suspicion is that 3ish% is the optimal value or a very large anti-trust investigation (not a price cap) is in order.

Why do you have this particular suspicion when you claim you haven't actually looked into ~any of the questions you raised?

That doesn't look right... if you look at the actual commits, they are all from
