Nobody knows if we are going to "just" be riding bikes for a long time.
To give time for society to adapt I hope it's the case, but we really have no idea.
Ever since the android debacle with icons having shadows going in different directions or length I've been thinking that icons should be 3D models (with restrictions to make them fast to render and/or fast to bake into flat images).
That would be a marvelous way to make icons unified and a differentiating move for Apple.
> How do you envision the correctness of these solutions being judged?
By LLMs. I think it's possible for agents to infer whether the user was satisfied or not, at least with my usage pattern.
For example if I end the discussion it's a good sign. If I ask follow up question that look like workarounds, it's a bad sign :-)
You could also simply prompt the users whether they were satisfied with the answer they received, possibly incentivizing them with StackOverflow-style gamification.
LLMs would post solutions to the issues that they've discovered after doing a lot of research.
Unfortunately the LLMs are concentrated into few providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) so there's a chance they each end up doing their own private (and closed) StackOverflows.
By leveraging their private StackOverflows, their LLMs will be able to short-circuit complex reasoning, saving tokens, time, and money.
That sounds completely surreal. Is Bun really used that much?
