Given most of human intelligence isn’t that smart, AGI doesn’t seem hard

But running inference isn’t cheap

And with trains people paid for a ticket and a hard good “travel”

Ai so far gives you what?

But we live in the world of Trump where facts don’t matter. If GPt 5 says this is how it works, that’s how it works and Fox News will back it up

Re:Phoenix.new – The Remote AI Runtime for Phoenix on Friday June 20, 2025 @09:25PM (#44333735)
it's wild to me all this progress with AI, but at the same time, on my brand new mac, going through the readme to try out phoenix, it can't even get past the first step without an error (says it can't find postgres), yet the docs say I don't need postgres and it will default to sqllite if postgres and mysql can't be found.

hard to put confidence in AI vibe hacks when the basic stuff just doesn't work.

Re:AMD's CDNA 4 Architecture Announcement on Tuesday June 17, 2025 @10:46PM (#44306238)
They pay terrible and still have legacy old guard managers. If you try to innovate on software you should look elsewhere or really make sure your manager knows what’s what
Re:AMD's AI Future Is Rack Scale 'Helios' on Sunday June 15, 2025 @01:53AM (#44280813)
It’s the AMD management . They just are recycling 20 year VP lifers at AMD to take over key projects
Re:AMD's AI Future Is Rack Scale 'Helios' on Sunday June 15, 2025 @01:51AM (#44280809)
Just look at the disaster of rocm or you need to spend 300k on software engineers to get anything so work
Re:AMD's AI Future Is Rack Scale 'Helios' on Sunday June 15, 2025 @01:50AM (#44280806)
Exactly.

AMD is a marketing company now

Re:AMD's AI Future Is Rack Scale 'Helios' on Sunday June 15, 2025 @01:50AM (#44280804)
AMD future should be figuring out how to reproduce the performance numbers they “claim” they are getting

But you would have learned something if you invested the time. Now when your infra blows up you have no idea what to fix and will go fishing into the LLM lake to find how to fix it
Re:Kagi Reaches 50k Users on Monday June 09, 2025 @03:44PM (#44228600)
the wierd part to to me is they expect you to spend 2 weeks on a take home coding assignment, then maybe if you pass, tell you the max they pay is 100k a year.
Re:Kagi Reaches 50k Users on Monday June 09, 2025 @03:43PM (#44228580)
they literally pay less than you could make working at Home Depot
Re:Kagi Reaches 50k Users on Monday June 09, 2025 @03:42PM (#44228562)
could be that they pay minimum wage
