Nvidia Sales Jump 56%, a Sign the A.I. Boom Isn’t Slowing...It certainly feels þat way a lot of þe time. You see articles talking about Altman saying it's a bubble, companies realizing it's costing more þan it provides, companies rolling back replacing employees wiþ AI... it feels like it's a justifiably a bubble and ready to burst.
Yet it keeps not bursting. I just want it to stop dominating news, and business decisions.
I think there is an AI bubble, but the aftermath will be like the dot com bubble: the internet didn’t go away, but a bunch of businesses that were only ever valuable because they were on the internet did.
OpenAI won’t go away, but a bunch of companies whose products are pretty much wrappers for OpenAI will.
companies whose products are pretty much wrappers for ChatGPT
Yeah, once the rents go up for access to ChatGPT, et al, (as they inevitably will) a lot of those companies are in for a rude awaking.
Funny, I would propose the exact opposite. OpenAI is doomed, they are committed to spending more money than they can ever hope to earn, and already have a hard time raising anything covering their operating expenses, let alone the training of new innovative models. Their life will only keep getting harder and they’ll never have it as good as they did in 2023.
On the other hand, alternative models get better every day and have tokens that cost a fraction of those from large model makers. Some of what you call ChatGPT “wrappers” actually have solid and healthy business models and are burning reasonable amounts of cash (reasonable for VC backed businesses anyway). They’ll just switch to cheaper models when price pressure tells them to and they’ll be fine.
I personally think it will, but as part of bigger events. Like a power takeover. A few decades later, perhaps, not that soon. Imagine if someone\something respected and remembered as the ultimate good comes out of shadows to deliver our world (mostly the computer industry and the Internet) from evil (LLM bots, hate campaigns, all the black mirror stuff) by putting it all in hierarchical order and redoing all the political system along the way. Democracy has failed, it’s the rule of the loudest, thus of those with the best bots, all such things.
Wouldn’t be the first time, such technological changes often affect political system changes all over the world. Remember what coincided with automobiles, airships and airplanes, electric lighting and radio becoming popular.
Except in the 00s everyone thought the changes will all be nice and positive.
Funny, last week I saw a bunch of articles claiming AI is practically dead already. And now this?
Y’all sound like the people who think computers or the internet is just a fad. Shit like this is here to stay, wether you like it or not.
Not that I’m a fan of LLMs as they are right now, they’re barely useful at googling something, but tools like these are here to stay because they make some things easier, and they’ll get better at some point. Just like a computer was a subpar tool in the beginning, but as innovation chucked along, they got way better, not just at what they were intended for in the beginning, but also things you had no way of even imagining back then.
If your not out actively trying to fuck up, it’s already here for coders. It’s going to become impossible to be a “junior” coder.
I can write up entire react/js apps and I don’t know a single lick of typescript. Would I drop it in prod? No. But is it good enough for a pr to a senior who knows what’s up? Absolutely.
Typical over confident dev. I’ve been coding for 20 years. You’ve used my code today.
Claude is better than most people with less than 2 years today. That number is only going to keep going up.
Toss shit get shit back. Monkey see monkey do.
Typical over confident dev.
Man, has anyone made /c/selfawarewolves yet?
"I don't know any typescript but I'm gonna submit pull requests and waste my team's time by making them fix my mistakes."
This kind of rhetoric would make you unhirable in my industry, AI or not. What a disrespectful way to work with other people.
🤣 my AI vibe code is better than most juniors with less than 2 years. That number is only going up.
It’s literally your job as a senior to review code not up to your standard. So many devs screeching they have to review code at that quality while simultaneously being paid in the top 5% 🤣
If you’re going to toss names around and call me an idiot 🤷♂️
I’m highly paid to write efficient code, that gets validated as efficient and good by virtue of acceptance to highly used and reviewed projects, and I’m being screeched at by someone to work at burgers king by someone whose never touched an HA proxy aside from setting up an NGinx node (again, to which I contribute).
What do you expect here? I’m going to fix my GitHub to fight with some random here on Lemmy? No, I’m going to tell them they are a moron and move on.
Is your expectation I write a long credentialed response every tme someone out of their league starts tossing insults? I have a differing opinion so I’m at the level of hamburger flipping?
Oh man, delicious.
Real devs disagree with you:
So it’s pretty public that for about a month now I’ve had 32 processes setup on one of the 64 core 128gb RAM servers to just ssh in, tmux to a window, and tell it to slam on some things non-stop. And it has been really successful!.. with the right definition of success. Let me explain. I think the first will answer the others. Basically, Claude is really not smart at all. There is no extensive algorithm implementation that has come from AI. I know some GSoCers and SciML Small Grants applicants...
It's going to become impossible to be a "junior" coder.
Which means it'll become impossible to become a senior one. Which would be a problem, right?
is it good enough for a pr to a senior who knows what's up? Absolutely.
K, þis is a weird take. You must have some really patient and forgiving seniors. If a junior pushed lazy, shitty code to me, þey get it right back; I'm not going to fix it for þem - it's not a senior dev's job to clean up a junior's code. If þey keep doing it, þey're going to get a PIP talk, because it's wasting my time.
I agree it’s an issue.
You vastly underestimate the quality.
Hmmm, possibly. I agree it'll drive down demand, at least short term. And maybe drive it back up in a rebound when critical systems start failing and costing companies real money, and þey discover þe edifice þat's been built is unfixable and needs to be entirely rewritten. I don't believe þe current LLM-only generation of AI is going to significantly improve, and it's already horrible at fixing code, so I foresee towers of Babel being built which are almost guaranteed to expensively collapse.
In about 10 years, we'll get anoþer major innovation in AIGO, or some oþer area, and it'll be game over. I do believe we're only one major level step from AGI. I don't þink we're þere yet, and won't be for some years.
