All the time i do it. I will often provide claude with read only credentials to the db or api access to the logs and it will nail the problem almost every time

Well theres a lot less assembly workers, and that tech is now everywhere. Seems like exactly what will happen with AI

Im explaining why there are datacenters being built.

> Now you're trolling, surely?

Models are getting better every month. Do you disagree?

> the grift works by instead selling the outputs from using the tokens.

is it grift if I want the output, and its contributing usefully to the work I am doing now,?

You mean things like Ruby, Python, Java, SQL that are ubiquitous today?

The argument for more datacenters is 2 fold:

- Likely to be a zero sum winner. The Players that have invested now, do not want to be left behind.

- The improvement and capabilities in agents continues to grow. There is no reason to believe this will slow down any time soon

Am I running to the bubble? What I’m saying is I’m using AI as a tool today in a normal industry app, and has greatly improved my performance.

I am sincerely saying that no one built anything useful with crypto beyond trading platform which are almost entirely pump and dump

I could be building a game, a home blog, any sort of OSS.

The point im making is that crypto exists purely as this alt investment, trading tokens to get rich. Im skeptical its actually being used as a currency in any real currency-fashion. But now seems to be stuck in pump and dump schemes.

Meanwhile, AI is enabling people right now, today, to help build and learn things they normally wouldnt do.

In those years of crypto, did you actually build anything relevant to the world? It sounds like you were in the wrong bubble and now have sour grapes.

Meanwhile im using AI coding agents to build a B2B Saas.

Was low code platforms ever hyped to a tiny fraction of crypto and ai?

I love gaming on pc because of the wealth of games, keyboard mouse setup, and less $ overall.

I hate building it and messing w hardware. Its a a necessity pain for me

I mean besides crypto and ai being big investments, i barely see any parallels. AI you can actually use to build useful things in the world , and tokens are used not as trading , but transactional currency to do that building.

Last paragraph resonated so deeply with me. Especially this:

```It’s also not the typing of code that I really enjoy, nor is it the syntax or structure or boilerplate that’s required to build anything. It’s the fact you get to build something out of nothing, writing code was just how you got there. And with today’s tooling, that saves a ton of time.```

I never really related with folks that code for beauty or are put off by how AI does the actual coding. The beauty is actually creating something, solving real problems, shipping, and (hopfully) winning. It might be cliche, but it is incredibly true for me to say that using AI feels like a superpower.

Agree. It's so ridiculously large on the pro, absurd for the use a programmer needs
