All the devs saying that Anthropic’s code quality is “normal” are telling on themselves and everybody they’ve worked with

(Also supports what many have been saying about software quality being a crisis that precedes LLMs, but that’s another story)

@baldur Is it possible your opinion about their internal code quality just isn't the constraint that you think it is? After all it's only the scaffolding around the LLM that does the actual work.

Interesting article on them from a couple of weeks ago telling their basing on $21bn of Google's TPUs (which run Gemini for Google) going forward rather than GPUs.

@hopeless @baldur Stop shilling.

@jmax @baldur ... for the record I don't have any investments in tech companies.

I'm sorry if it hurts your feelings that Anthropic have a lot of money (for now anyway) and are giving some of it to Google for their TPUs so they can run more AI.

But that seems to be the reality...

@hopeless @baldur Stop shilling for con artists.

... sorry, I try not to talk to people who are hard of understanding.
