Almost felt a bit *uncanny valley* for what "natural" conversation is supposed to be like. If the "uh huh" isn't timed correctly, it'll feel like a zoom call with lag.

I fear a world where critical software is stood up with increasingly non-human governed abstraction because it [seems like it] works.

Software engineers as the review terminal in a conveyor of business-led code mass production... coming to a company near you?

Been playing with GLM 5.2 in different contexts. It's less good if you don't max out thinking, but as xhigh it's been able to solve most problems I was throwing at Opus in the about the same amount of time (via OpenRouter).

Wild time to be alive.

Having my engineers swap over to it from Claude has garnered very little complaint. The lack of multi-modality is a limitation, but using minimax m3 for that isn't super inconvenient.

I remember making games ten years ago, and it was such a tedious and painful process. This is effectively lightning in a bottle even at a fraction of it's capability.

The next 12 months will be wild (assuming we don't have Chinese models banned by then in the US).

Not exactly saying this is the reason for their sell, but I'd imagine a lot of professional musicians are feeling the desire to exit the industry.

Praying to the security gods.

It seems like we've have non-stop supply chain attacks for months now?

The Sora sunsetting marked a big shift towards enterprise focus and meeting Anthropic on the enterprise battlefield, but almost all engineers I work with or know are using Claude at this point exclusively.

Anyone seeing differently?

Looked at the "how it works" -- is there a way to manually specify leaf element sizing? Thinking about dynamically sized elements that don't have markup-level specified sizes yet via bounding boxes.

What's the threshold function? Do you have graduating `No --> Partially --> Mostly --> Open`?

Also what's the update cadence?

I myself have feelings like this, as a software engineer by trade.

"We will forever be useful!" As a sounding cry against radical transformation. I hope that's the case, but some of these pieces just seem like copium.

I feel like npm specifically needs to up their game on SA of malicious code embedded in public projects.

It's worse than this. If someone is working out for you, they still own the outcome of that effort (their physique).

With an LLM people _act_ like the outcome is their own production. The thinking, reasoning, structural capability, modeling, and presentation can all just as easily be framed _as your creation_.

That's why I think we're seeing an inverse relationship between ideation output and coherence (and perhaps unoriginality) and a decline in creative thinking and creativity[0]

Will our agents just be proxies for garbage like injected marketing prompts?

I feel like this is going to be an existential moment for advertising that ultimately will lead to intrusive opportunities like this.

This one hurt.
