abroszka33··on I'm not convinced the AI bubble exists
With AI VR does have usecases.

AI can maintain the multiverse and administrate it. Everyone can create just by talking.

Coding would also be a good usecase, to see the architecure in 3D and talk with Claude, point at stuff, pick him up and put him where the work needs to be done.

I think it's a match made in heaven, AI is just still way too slow an expensive for this.

abroszka33··on Images 2.6
> Feels like ai image generation has plateaud. > Coding related have had massive step-up improvements over time. > The same cannot be said for image generation. If anything, I swear it's gone backwards.

I would argue both are exactly the same. The images are getting nicer, the AI can alter pictures better. It's the same as coding.

The difference is our perception. Looking at image takes 2s, and we can spot what we don't like. Looking at a code change takes hours to understand. It's very difficult to tell how much code generation is improving because almost nobody is reading it.

Image and code generation don't correlate exactly, but I would be surprised to see a big jump of capabilities in either without the other quickly following.

abroszka33··on PHP Foundation 'under-funded' with one full-time staff member, director says
I like a lot of things as well, yet I don't feel I can contribute after work. I already spend 8 to 10 hours at work. I can't find the motivation to do more.
abroszka33··on PHP Foundation 'under-funded' with one full-time staff member, director says
Of course there are. But do they matter in our current system?
abroszka33··on No signs of AI payoff outside the tech sector
I'm sure private equity understands it very well... That's why they profit so much, they understand what to destroy.
abroszka33··on PHP Foundation 'under-funded' with one full-time staff member, director says
Not surprising at all. There are no incentives for anyone to contribute. And why would there be in this financial system?
abroszka33··on There's never been a better time to go into math (by: 3blue1brown) [video]
You can still code the interesting parts. We all need some mental gymnastic to keep up. Leetcode or writing the parts that interests you, it doesn't matter.

Yes I worked, almost for a decade. I know everybody loves talking there, but that was true before AI as well. Good thing is that with AI, big tech is going away. Who needs 5 layers of management when 5 guys can replicate their product.

Why would you leave software? Sitting down and working in silence and thinking is still a very rare and valuable skill, the talking part is not so much.

If AI solves all coding and software then we are not going to sit around talking, it will be the time to sit down and do some very complex deep work that needs silence, concentration and understanding.

For you it will be paradise, you can also just point all the people to talk with your agent instead of you.

abroszka33··on Someone behind the software
> I think good products carry something of the people who make them.

Yeah, look at modern AAA games vs. small indie games.

abroszka33··on 90% of US working hours are spent on tasks not covered well by AI benchmarks
Because it's a bullshit slop research. Under computer programmers there is "Develop Websites" at 0. Apparently AI cannot write web sites. Or just nobody looked at the slop they generated at Mercor.
abroszka33··on 90% of US working hours are spent on tasks not covered well by AI benchmarks
> We software engineers and lawyers would be smart to start retraining (and adjusting our living standards) now!

Yes like all the drivers and truckers who retained 10 years ago because self driving cars will take their jobs. Lucky all of them retrained in time!

abroszka33··on Redesigning source control at Anthropic
Where does all of this end? If they keep this growth up, or even if they slow to a linear growth, they will produce more code than humanity combined pre-AI. That's scary.
abroszka33··on Redesigning source control at Anthropic
Just use Git, by the time it becomes the bottleneck you can prompt your own Git alternative.
abroszka33··on Using AI for just 10 minutes erodes your ability to persist at hard things
Same thing we argued about Google, that now we don't spend time learning stuff to remember, but we can just look it up and use that time to do more, spend it on more important problems than remembering. Yet it made us stupider.
abroszka33··on Using AI for just 10 minutes erodes your ability to persist at hard things
Two things can be true at the same time. Google rotted our brain and AI will rot our brains even further. Google made remembering unnecessary. AI makes thinking unnecessary.
abroszka33··on I wish you the best in the Offline
What else is possible in our personal lives other than to eventually let the internet go? I'm almost certain that 90% of the content I read is AI slop. Software in general is horrible, advertisements and dark patterns are everywhere. Even offline, it ruined movies, series, books and games. Now I have to research an author before buying a book to make sure that they are real and they don't mass produce AI slop.

Sure, I will still use internet and AI professionally, because they are paying me to do it, but it will be just a tool.

abroszka33··on GPT‑6 and Intelligent UI for everyone
Then show a real task where text is limiting. Don't make up stupid examples.
abroszka33··on All the numbers: Amazon Prime Day 2026 powered by AWS
Don't worry they have cry booths now. Everything is fine!
abroszka33··on GPT‑6 and Intelligent UI for everyone
The intro video is just lame. Those things never happen in real life.
abroszka33··on OpenAI "rogue" agent activities found on Wikimedia projects
Is this the tip of the iceberg? I'm pretty sure there is work being done somewhere to make a safe heaven messaging board for these rogue agents. I wonder when we will find the first couple.
abroszka33··on GPT 6.1 Sol: Near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price
Nice, that's all single player stuff.
abroszka33··on GPT 6.1 Sol: Near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price
> I've spent $200+ on deepseek and this is for making a multiplayer FPS game.

Why do you expect that $200 will give you that on ANY model? Multiplayer FPS games are very difficult to make, no AI will deliver that today.

abroszka33··on Meta Blocks President Lula's Facebook Page, Campaign Ads 2 Weeks from Election
That's what makes it even more confusing why we don't ban these sites.
abroszka33··on Meta Blocks President Lula's Facebook Page, Campaign Ads 2 Weeks from Election
I hope Lula wins and they will ban Facebook for good after the elections. This is an attack on Brazil’s sovereignty.
abroszka33··on Unsealed Briefs in Authors’ Case v. Microsoft/OpenAI
Any source that this was a library? Even then that would still raise a question if OpenAI is a Russian organisation or not to access that library with good faith.

I think they just used a Russian torrent site.

abroszka33··on Opus 5.5 is good at explainer videos
Yeah, and other models as well. YouTube is now full of AI explainer slop videos.
abroszka33··on Samsung accidentally freezes its smart fridges with a software update
I'm starting to hate all smart devices. I love my dumb devices that need no updates, internet or subscription. They just work.
abroszka33··on OpenAI is enlisting an influencer army to make it look 'good for the world'
Yeah, that post disappeared rather quickly. I was surprised by it.
abroszka33··on OpenAI is well positioned to fast-follow Jev
Because AGI will also handle whatever is happening after your "is the customer asking for a refund?" question. Replacing whoever is doing that refund.
abroszka33··on OpenAI is well positioned to fast-follow Jev
> If they release AGI and it costs $1 and 5 seconds to decide "is the customer asking for a refund", then that's a terrible use case for AGI

Is it? If AGI is here then by the time I test and deploy that the AGI will be most likely cheaper and smarter because it improved itself (for example by implementing it's own Jev for stupid prompts like this), so why invest into a more complex solutions?
