I understand the negative sentiment toward Altman, but just to be fair, how do we define 'lying'? How does his behavior compare to that of the average executive, or even the average human?
I don't particularly like the guy; I'm just curious to see if he is objectively a liar in a way that most engineers, executives, or humans are not, or if this perception is simply a bias stemming from the general negative sentiment toward him.
sounds like a plan haha. How is OpenCode vs Claude Code orchestration? have you ever needed to modify the orchestration since it's open source? do you mind sharing more about your experience?
I was saying it was not commoditized a decade ago, but i feel it's getting commoditized *now*. So you seem to be basically saying SWE is over and it's time to move on to something that is primarily based on human-human interaction?
1. No, implementing well defined requirements were not commoditized a decade ago. You still have to come up with the design and proper (efficient,correct,...) solution that respects the requirements. it was and still is the skill set of a L4/L5 SWE.
2. If you think LLMs cannot help with navigating ambiguity and requirements, you are wrong. it might not be able to 100% crack it (due to not having all the necessary context), but still help a lot.
if it's able to do the interesting/engaging part faster than me, i don't see why i should not outsource to it (The same argument as why use LLM-assisted programming at all, you don't want to miss the productivity boost)
