i'm suggesting the solution is abstraction + composition. 1/ use ai to solve a subset of the problem 2/ abstract away its complexity to just its interface 3/ build with known interfaces.

this is how we solve problems. it should work the same for ai.

  1. write custom components on the fly (ai can)
  2. compose arbitrary components (composition isn't solved)

once we figure out the right building blocks of applications, it will simply be inefficient to write code yourself.

perhaps a controversial take, but writing code is going away (99% of it).

if you consider many of the great post-ai civilizations in sci-fi (matrix, foundation, dune, culture, blade runner, etc.), they're all shaped by the consequences of ai:

   - matrix: ai won and enslaved humans. 
   - foundation: humans won and a totalitarian empire banned ai, leading to the inevitable fall of trantor bc nobody could understand the whole system. 
   - dune: humans won (butlerian jihad) and ai was banned by the great houses, which led to the rise of mentats. 
   - culture series: benign ai (minds) run the utopian civilization according to western values.

which future would you prefer?

I'd add filling out boilerplate (e.g., impl trait defintions).

An extension can also increment selected numbers together or turn selected 0s into a sequence.

I believe China has already passed this point. Their culture and individual behavior is tightly controlled (e.g., you can't use public bathrooms if your social score is too low).

AI may be the catalyst for western countries.

  - adam was extremely active during the early cypherpunk days, when
  - he invented Hashcash, which bitcoin cites in its whitepaper and used as its PoW
  - he was the first to take Wei Dai's b-money proposal seriously and discusses combining it with hashcash (the 2 core elements of bitcoin)
  - he disappeared and reappeared professionally during the exact timeframe of bitcoin development
  - his writing closely matches satoshi's (british english + style/punctuation)
  - he had no public involvement with bitcoin until he joined Bitcointalk forums in 2013 and suddenly had intimate details of unknown bugs in bitcoin saying "I thought I'd fixed them".
  - he started Blockstream with the mission to ensure the survival of bitcoin (funded lighting, paid core devs, etc)
  - he recently helped nail the coffin on Craig Wright's case in court proving he was not satoshi, during which
  - he revealed the earliest known email correspondence with satoshi

wouldn't it be a wake up call? wouldn't things of real importance start to happen?

we're insanely capable creatures, but most of our energy is wasted on in-fighting and getting in our way.

america gets many things wrong, but to think it deserves to collapse or that it shouldn't take steps to protect itself is ignoring history.

tiktok is controlled by a country we're entering/entered a new cold war with. china is not your friend.

the hiring pool may be smaller, but don't believe the fear.

attaching a role-based policy to data fields (or storing it alongside data) should be enough.

not for awhile. apple vision / oculus will stream (4k/8k) 3d movies.
