Not to downplay Anthropic's engineering work here, but I suspect we'll see a lot more reinvention of the wheel, even at smaller startups, as AI makes writing code significantly cheaper.

The tradeoff between building something custom and adapting an existing solution is changing. Whether maintaining all that custom software turns out to be equally cheap is another question.

Loved the idea, but I don’t think it would be able to handle real-world data effectively. There are a lot of nuances that actually require a reasoning model to think through, connect the dots, and make sense of the broader context.

You can probably blame Chinese distillation efforts for some of this paranoia.

offtopic: Is there any chance we could see competing models from other countries in the next 5 years?

Just add a queue. Now the outage is eventually consistent.

This isn't a GoPro. The whole point is that it doesn't look like you're recording.

With a GoPro, everyone knows there's a camera. With these, most people won't.

I wonder what JetBrains is doing. They had such a strong lead, but with the rise of AI, they seem to be heading down the same path as Stack Overflow.

Yeah. I typed too fast..

They should check out Vega – A Visualization Grammar - https://vega.github.io/vega/

They want to achieve AGI first because, once it is achieved, no one knows what the world will look like.

They could've simply cut the usage limits, removed K3 from the plan, added a weekly cap, and called it "fair usage." Anthropic has been running that playbook for a while now, and they're a trillion-dollar company.

Honestly, I initially thought rewriting an entire codebase with AI would be a huge mistake. After reading this, I'm starting to think I was wrong.

If projects like Bun can be substantially rewritten and shipped to millions of users, it suggests we're entering a very different phase of software development.

Today's AI-generated rewrites may not produce code that humans would consider high quality or maintainable. But I'm beginning to wonder whether that will even matter in a few months. If AI is the primary consumer, maintainer, and refactorer of code, human readability becomes far less important than correctness, performance, and the ability to iterate.

This feels like a shift where software may no longer exist as a long-lived artifact in its current form. Instead of writing and maintaining applications for years, we may generate, adapt, and discard them continuously for each use case.

`seams` is the new emdash

I wonder if Elon would now reconsider IPO.

All new accounts created within few min. Nothing to see here.

Microsoft's biggest threat to its own growth is Microsoft itself.

> If it stays at arm's length, and if it can "read only", then I am OK with it and actually somewhat pleased with it.

This isn't actually about AI. it's just classic human psychology.

You’ve had a rock-solid workflow for 25 years, so it makes total sense to be cautious and reject features you don't need.

Right now, keeping it at "arm's length" and "read-only" feels safe. But that's usually just phase one. Once that initial trust is established, those boundaries naturally start to melt away. Give it a couple of tax seasons, and you’ll probably find yourself wanting it to take on more of the heavy lifting.

Simultaneous speech is best.

What a time. I am back here genuinely wishing for OpenAI to release a great model, because without stiff competition, it feels like Anthropic has completely lost its mind.

Has anyone here used Kimi for actual work?

I tried it once, although it looks amazing on benchmarks, my experience was just okay-ish.

On the other hand, Qwen 3.6 is really good. It’s still not close to Opus, but it’s easily on par with Sonnet.

Anthropic must be loving it. It's free money.

Recently, Anthropic has been making bad decisions after bad decisions.

looks like opus have been nerfed from day1
