Hello, textlog!
Any conversation
Overvalued, maybe. Extremely valuable, yes, though.
For sure. We're well past the point of being able to reasonably claim that the tools have no practical use.
But I share the article's skepticism that LLM-based AI will "produce a fully automated drop-in replacement for most knowledge workers". Which it at this point has to in order to justify these companies' stupendous valuations.
Tomorrow no but there will always be the โhopeโ which is enough for the next 20 years before giving up. Which meanwhile would be replacing larger and larger chunks of the workforce so it wonโt really matter, weโll be adjusting our lives around it as well so we meet in the middle.
Tesla has been overvalued for over a decade with the promise of โfully autonomous carsโ and itโs still not losing its value, despite not meeting that (and probably never will, as the computation necessary to achieve it is bounded by physics).
Economist Lant Pritchett describes shifts in ideas as silly, controversial, progressive, then obvious.

a kis laptopnak pedig nincs elรฉg memรณriรกja, szรณval ezt a fลterminรกlt eredetileg programozรกsra vettem, azt nem tudom mรกr, mit akartam programozni vele, de pont รบgy zรบg, mint egy adatkรถzpont, รฉs hogyha egy kicsit korszerลฑsรญtem, a Gemma 4 LLM รฉppen visรญtva el fog tudni futni rajta
and the little laptop doesn't have enough memory, so I originally bought this main terminal for programming, I don't know what I wanted to program with it anymore, but it hums like a data center, and if I upgrade it a little, the Gemma 4 LLM will be able to run on it screaming
Since you guys are on textlog I think you will find this article and discussion interesting
A character count though that still requires JavaScript sadly enough ๐ฅบ
Interesting! Didnโt know about a few. Neat! ๐ Aside, do you have an invitation for ? Or can you help us by doing a post about
textlog.cc?โฆ
You think is too much? Itโs totally related to the post.
People post projects/tools/repos on lobsters all the time. From the about page, "as a rule of thumb, self-promo should be less than a quarter of one's stories and comments."
I think if @stagasprofilefollow

You'd Uber someone BโC when already driving AโBโCโD; you'd AirBNB your home when vacationing and stay at someone else's home who was doing the same. No driving just for Uber; no houses just for AirBNB. I fear this history will be forgotten.
Agree, it was once like that. But a very long time ago and for very short period of time. Then, capitalism did its tricks.
kรฉsztetรฉst รฉrzek, hogy valami ilyesmivel (is) foglalkozzam, a kรณdolรกshoz egyelลre nincs agyam, de majd azt is szeretnรฉk, csak scripteket, semmi komoly programnyelv, de vรฉgรผlis a JavaScript is scriptnyelv
I feel the urge to do something like this, I don't have the brains for coding yet, but I would like to, just scripts, no serious programming languages, but after all, JavaScript is also a scripting language
