I don't know why you're downvoted. This is field is so rapidly changing and confusing and on top of that burried underneath a shitload of new marketing terms.
Right i wondered the same. I guess Cloudflare would have to act as a Merchant of Record, like e.g. Paddle and Gumroad do. Then the end user/bot would do business with Cloudflare, and Cloudflare with us.
It's not one single danger, its a can full of dangers in various domains. And in contrast to other dangerous technologies, we are talking about one that has the potential to self improve. This smells like exponential growth doesn't it? Exponential growth is something we are not very likely to adapt to successfully, even if you say we are supposed to.
But before you complain, here are just a few concrete dangers, that come into my mind right now:
- mass layoffs in a system that is far from being prepared for sth like that. (no UBI)
- a Mr. Robot tier blackhat at the fingertips of every teenager in their mom's basement in a software landscape that is far from being prepared for sth like that. Side note: Big parts of the world including critical infrastructure runs on software.
- because it automates more and more intellectual work, it can cause mass brain atrophy, which isn't a hopeful sign for the human branch of the evolution
- increasing dependence on a technology, that is in the hands of those with capital.
And to the OP: this technology has potential implications that are far beyond 'being behind' other nation states economically.
Nice, but "and save it to your email so you never lose it." will deter a lot of serious people. It has a "dark pattern to push onboarding" vibe to it, that reminds of how a not so intelligent marketing person would do it.
Yes i guess color and packaging make a huge part of the effect. But they do use artificial flavors and i imagine that i could blindly differentiate apple and strawberry candies, but i could not blindly associate them with their natural pendants.
I've noticed as a kid, that strawberry flavoured candy doesn't actually taste like strawberries. They are clearly and collectively recognisable as strawberry candies, but that's just pattern matching and conditioning on wording. The flavour has not much to do with actual strawberries, even the sweetness is vastly exaggerated. The synthetic aroma is much less complex, as the author noted. We just fell into the habit (or trap) of using the same word for both flavours.
On the other hand i'm wondering if that's just an implementation detail.
A temporary imperfection in simulating the real thing due to constraints in (chemical) engineering and cost, not a hard limit.
Neural Networks are universal function approximators. Throw enough resources at them and they will mimic the most complex function to an arbitrary level of detail.
I'm using VSCode with Github Copilot (Business) in Agent, and Ask mode with varying LLMs, depending on the complexity of the task.
For a specific task, i create a markdown file with the requirements in tandem with the Agent, manually edit it where convenient. And then i let the Agent implement one feature or work unit after another, while micro managing it and making sure that i understand what it has written (not for really trivial stuff, where i don't care). This gives me a huge productivity boost, while the level of being in the loop is still bearable for me.
TBH, i'm wondering why i'm the only one saying he's using VSCode with GH Copilot. Isn't this the most frictionless tooling for an 'agentic engineer'? I get state-of-the-art LLMs while it's fully integrated into my IDE.
I still don't fully get what Claude Code or GH Copilot CLI would bring beyond that, since the Copilot plugin does also have CLI access.
I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic, but there is!
I've jailbroken my Kindle Scribe and installed coreader and feed it my Calibre library and its awesome.
Oh and i kept it in airplane mode from the first day, which is important so it doesnt self update and break the jailbreak.
Doesn't matter. CAD models/objects are represented by a sequence of operations on a primitive or sketch. Unlike meshes, that describe the manifested resulting shape of objects in 3D programs like Blender.
So it's about the fact, that their model outputs that hierarchy of operations. The history of development, not just the result.
