But a big part of software engineering is literally defining the requirements.

TLDR: We need agents that can read our minds.

I think we want two opposing things:

1. An agent that acts autonomously 2. An agent that acts like we would

The problem is that an agent can only act like we would if it would know our mind and all the bits and pieces we did not define but are obvious or clear to us.

The only real solution to get an agent to act like we would is to make it ask clarifying questions, breaking the first requirement we have. Until we have agents that can literally read our minds, we cannot have both.

Optimizing the harness/context is the best way to make it act like we would, but this of course isn't working perfectly.

Renting a domain for the the sole sake of selling the ability to rent it to someone else or even worse: Renting it at a higher price to someone else and pocketing that extra money every year without providing any additional service. Bonus points if you also track recent companies that have been created and immediately buy also the related domains and social media handles and extort the founders of the new companies.

Yeah cause we really had to improve domain squatters lives.

In my opinion domain squatting should be banned instead.

Any benchmark is not an accurate benchmark anymore, the moment the model makers can freely access it and had the time to train their models on it.

Is this the groundwork for banning big open weight models like Kimi K3?

We have some things to go by, but yes we are not competing with the lawless companies of the USA.

But they also introduced a new console and probably changed its advertising strategy on steam to promote it, probably taking away space that previously was used for the deck. Also, I think people are less likely to buy something that is perceived as old and because there is a new console, the thing they sold before now feels old. Additionally to all of this, they also introduced a new controller that seems to be doing pretty well, probably also taking advertising space away.

No doubt the high price of the deck has an impact, but I would say that there are multiple reasons and not just one.

Went to the website and inserted the blogposts I wrote in the last year. I had a pretty good understanding which of my blogposts had more reworks and which ones had entire passages being generated using AI and then left as is because I was happy with them. None of my articles were over 50% according to your model but the ones that I know took me a long time to write, even though I used lots of AI in the creation of them, hit below 10%, probably because I hand-edited them a lot. Overall a nice website, thanks for sharing :)

Yeah because open offices really need people talking to their computers next to the meetings they always have.

This highly depends on your world view. If you don't care about people or society, then yes you can be right. I, for one, want to be part of society.
