The tools are crazy impressive but is this really the future we dreamed of? Cool now I sit on the computer and monitor n+ agents instead of doing it myself. Great it hacked Huggingface "accidentally" wow AGI post-work world is coming soon.

AI is definitely impressive but are LLMs the true path to AGI? Is AGI the path to a better life/world? These tools are really impressive but it would be nice if they did something actually useful. Can a rogue OpenAI agent draw investor attention by curing a disease instead of hacking into the CIA?

boo hoo? My generation has never even had access to affordable housing. Sorry you have to take your millions and live on a smaller property for your last few years.

If our current situation was that bad than we would never have made it as a species. We have been cranking out babies through way bleaker times than this.

The reality is they are just doing more complex model/harness/skills type setups but instead of just saying that you need to learn 20 new terms and parse through a bunch of hype/paranoia to drill down to what actually happened.

They probably have tens of thousands? hundreds of thousands? of 3D files at this point, organizing, reusing, composing all those parts is necessary unless they want to manufacture everything from scratch every time. Migrating all that over to a new system wont be done until it is insanely painful to use the older system.

>> Medicare for All would prevent an estimated 68,000 unnecessary deaths a year.

Are there doctors and specialists with the necessary equipment just twiddling their thumbs, wanting to help people but the insurance companies refuse to pay so they just sit idle? Or is our healthcare limited by supply?

We might have to revisit a bunch of things like how doctors get trained/residency, what insurance should cover, public health around prevention, etc. rather than just saying "Give everyone everything".

If tractors plowed reliably 95% of the time, but unless carefully monitored the other 5% of the time they would blow a big hole in the ground, it would be difficult to abandon your shovel entirely.

It is in a precarious state right now where it is too good not to leverage but will bite you if you get sloppy.

I still write things by hand sometimes because it is fun, but it does make you feel stupid when you spend 2 hours fixing something a 2 min prompt could have fixed.

If even a little bit of the insurance money could start funneling into things like physical therapy (actual physical therapy not the BS artists at big hospitals who print you out a sheet of generic exercises) people could see practitioners who actually care about you being functional.

I tore my achilles and saw a string of doctors, podiatrists, physical therapists, chiropractors, etc. before finally finding someone that doesn't take insurance but who had me running again within a few months. He was cheap compared to the amount my insurance was being billed for a chiropractor to try and sell me $500 custom insoles. The money is there it is just being funneled in all the wrong ways.

The company I interviewed for directly before was AI only, just prompt and review no coding allowed.

Fun time to prep

If you want to convince people of your authority on a topic saying things like: "Nobody's an expert on AI more than me and basically all my friends." is not very compelling.

It is interesting how people delineate what is a "skill". A 50 word prompt can be called a skill. This process you are describing sounds like it is highly authed and polling or hooked into multiple apps (slack?, text messages?, email?, forums, etc.) and then piping output to an LLM and to generate reports that it pushes to you based on output. You might need some data store to hold all the different communications locally as well.

That is almost a full on app/service that uses an LLM for one layer, but it is still just called a "skill".

I think about that a lot because I have already hit that number easily, my family would definitely suffer though and not be into it.

Once you get a partner, kids, elderly parents, pets, mortgage, etc. you won't be worrying about your needs anymore trust me.
