Yes. Productivity tools make programmer time more valuable, not less. This is basic economics. You’re now able to generate more value per hour than before.

(Or if you’re being paid to waste time, maybe consider coding in assembly?)

So don’t be afraid. Learn to use the tools. They’re not magic, so stop expecting that. It’s like anything else, good at some things and not others.

But it’s clearly statistically much safer (https://www.tesla.com/VehicleSafetyReport) 7 million miles before an accident w FSD vs. 1 million when disengaged. I agree I didn’t like the feel of FSD either, but the numbers speak for themselves.

Thanks, I’ve never heard this and it’s quite profound. It’s always bothered me that there even is a top speed, and further that mass becomes infinite as it’s approached. But “speed of causality” makes these less strange.

When I say “new knowledge” I mean in the David Deutsch sense. Like the discovery of new physics which Sam mentioned.

I want to be wildly optimistic too, but I still see no evidence LLMs generate new knowledge. They always hew in-distribution.

Please correct me if I’m wrong

Is the score of 28 comparable to the score of 29 here? https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/ai-mathematical-olympiad...

Define “waste”. Then explain why your opinion should trump a free market. Then tell me how much coercion will be required to enforce it.
