Exactly. Also it's incredible how many working professionals (as evidenced by this "movement") don't understand why companies pay for software to these SaaS companies.
Ironically attaching your company to a movement like this will deter people from using it.
Let's be realistic. Most of the videos on hackertube.org wouldn't exist if it weren't for the enormous sums of money YouTube pays their creators because of...ads.
I would also be more impressed with it if they created their own video processing and serving stack.
> when I say things like OpenAI and Anthropic are gonna crater
But how do you know that? (And no I'm not shocked by this statement, it's just odd to say it with conviction.)
Exactly, thank you. I'm much more interested in how systems interact gracefully, addressing failure modes and building for resiliency/scale.
Do you need good quality code to do that? Sure, but that's just another line-item on the laundry list of things to make it happen.
I know Google SREs who do feature development on the infrastructure support they support alongside their devs.
There's nothing unique about junior SREs. They're replaceable with almost any "vanilla Dev". You don't really build a unique experience or expertise until Senior+.
> make concerted efforts to do programming (like a coding hour every week), do a Leet code question
I'll probably get downvoted for this but: At 15 YoE, hell no.
Day-to-day coding lost it's allure to me about 3-4 years ago; it's just a means to an end. I think AI came at the right time for me.
> Some immediate targets include multi-signal correlation across metrics, logs, and traces, autonomous root-cause analysis for partially understood failures
AI is already pretty good at this in "SRE" workflows.

And half decent at this.
If you're talking about track record, Argon had the same sort of announcement and was released.
What's vaporware? They announced Argon and it was publicly launched a month later. Same with the previous models.
I'm confused. So you just completely pirate all your games?
The audience wasn't that close.
Nah, this ain't it chief. I own exactly 0 directly. Too volatile and don't really care for Teslas at all. I love my gas cars.
Okay that's one of the coolest things I've seen in a while since the rockets landing.
Car looks half decent too.
Ask your mom/dad or non-technical GenZ college going son/daughter to use your `local LLM with voice interaction and fine-tuning` setup long-term.
People don't care about privacy. They want something that just works.

Can you elaborate on this?

What's specifically?
> Granted, PCI is so weak it is almost useless, and yet still better than anything congress could have come up with.
Elaborate, please?
I'm all for regulation of AI, but it's not practical.
I fear we're going to regulate ourselves to death (hyperbole) with regards to AI in the Western world, while China is just going to go brrr.
I've been using Gemini for the last 15 minutes. It's been fine for me.
Please, this is not Reddit. Don't bring this here. And to top it off, this isn't even funny or original.
You actualy think METR is complicit in this marketing stunt? If OpenAI was withholding data, do you think they would not call it out?
You mean by Judge Leonie M. Brinkema who was appointed by Clinton and has ruled against Trump policies/agenda regularly?
Respectfully: If it's able to deploy without you asking it to, that's a you problem. There are no safeguards?
> but if, in 2026, you aren't able to have an LLM generate decent quality code... IDK what to tell you.
I think the author's point still stands. At some point you need to determine whether the output is of decent quality. A lot of people don't have the ability and experience to do that.
> are they not even a little curious
Some are. Some aren't. Usually a good indicator of career trajectory.
I also switched to 5.6 Sol for this very reason. it was so exhausting and cringe to read.

And?
