To address your claim, that shipping speed is more important than code quality, that could be true so long as the code is correct. The problem is that AI can do a prototype reasonably well, but still starts falling down when the system becomes complex enough. When that happens, code quality absolutely matters as a human will need to go through it.

Perhaps in the future AI will have fewer limitations, but today, if you are building a product you want to have a long lifespan, code quality still matters, and so you need to use AI appropriately. The code quality debate isn't even unique to AI, people have debated this for decades with regard to human coders and how value senior vs junior developers are.

It would actually make sense that as you age and eat less you might get creatine deficient so sure. I don't think it's bullshit, but it's not going to be a huge noticeable effect either.

All of this reminds me of people who don't weight lift "because they don't want to get built." They somehow think you lift some weights and boom you're looking like Arnold. No, it doesn't work that way.

While I do believe there may be valid path forward with smaller models, there are still significant financial barriers to entry that didn't exist to the same extent in the past.

Reality: people started writing their passwords on sticky notes by their computer. Possibly the worst outcome.

Convenience is part of good security.

It doesn't need to compete with normal panels on only one metric. People will accept longer payoff times for aesthetics or durability if the ratio is right. Also, who really cares about Tesla at this point? Other companies are now producing these panels.

Like everything Musk, it died because of his poor business practices and his politics. The only thing he seems to excel at these days is extracting government money.
