Not true. Plenty go into the graveyard. At some point in time typewriters were everywhere. So were landline phones. Both were highly integrated into the system. They were replaced by much superior versions.

> In the first few years after electric motors became a thing, one could have said the same thing. We would have just gone back to steam. If you tried to "do without them" now, society would collapse.

Yes but there is nothing to state that the current version of LLMs is equivalent to electric motors. We could very well be in the typewriter/landline phones stage. You would need even more iterations to get something that is equivalent to electric motors.

Even electric motors themselves underwent multiple iterations to become economically viable. Lot of wasteful overhead needed to be eliminated and parts re-engineered to make it more efficient before it could be truly adopted.

This is a really cool idea. Agreed! Wish something like this actually existed.

There are umpteen stories in Hindu scriptures of baby learning in the womb of the mother and how the expecting mother must only be exposed to good thoughts and a good environment for giving birth to an intelligent and well rounded child: stories of Abhimanyu (learning how to break the Chakravyuha formation in his womb while mother was learning it but his learning was incomplete when mother fell asleep during the lecture) and Prahlada (mother learning about Lord Vishnu against the wishes of her demon husband Hiranyakashyapu). Wonder if any studies have been done on this as well.

Please stop contributing to slop/chasing trends and care more for your customers, who are your bread and butter (provided they stick around after this debacle).

Every senior/principal developer worth his/her salt knows how bad AI still is when it comes to coding.

DO. NOT. BELIEVE. AI. CEOS.

Do not hand over control of your production data/services to AI. No matter how you might feel you are missing out. Your feelings are not > your customers.

Value your customers. They are your bread and butter. Not AI CEOs or AI bros who want to sell you shovels in this inane fake gold rush.

And please stop investing in slop/wrappers. They do not solve World's problems.

I feel there has been complacency set into investing in general where investors are chasing quick money (first crypto and now AI slop) over solving hard/grueling problems that take a long time to fix but have huge returns down the line.

And we have a lot of tough problems that still need solving. AI won't magically fix that, despite being a great tool.

If you cannot even get auth right I shudder to think what the rest of the product will be like to deal with should issues arise.
