Yeh local models will continue to gain performance before they can IPO

I only use free Gemini Pro to plan then scrape the log in Google Drive into local Qwen/Gemma+pi set up

I can plan and architect with Gemini on my phone or wherever and a cron job + custom JSON parser at home updates context in local model setup

Useless stat without breakdown of time spent at the site and bot activity.

It will draw a non-zero number just curious people who never use ChatGPT.

And bots are exfiltrating model knowledge for the benefit of competition.

I don't have a shred of empathy for software engineers at risk to AI

Same old technological advancement they championed coming for them.

Too bad for them they had too little vision and skill for engineering which led them to erroneous conclusion hardware would never evolve to be self-configuring even though its a long sought goal of hardware engineering

I mean this is the US, where it could be argued the lack of social safety net means none of us really have empathy for our neighbors. Same as I am not out there feeding homeless, if you end up living in your car, oh well.
