Hi friends, I just figured out fedia.social federates with Threads and I don't want to stand for that.
So this account is ABANDONED! I'll keep it because I can't fully move to the new one and it's nice to have an emergency backup in case anything goes wrong!
New account is @witchsui
o7 ~ It's hard not to get overwhelmed over the fact that 95% of the way everything works is absolutely fucked.
I really really really really need to find a way to move out. Out of this entire country.

So just the idea that I could sit there and in English ask it to do anything and have it do anything at all to me is mind-blowing. Right then and there. That's amazing. That's a freaking miracle that I never would have anticipated being good. So why everybody's not blown away by that fact that this exists in our world is beyond me. I just don't get it. It pisses me off, kind of, that people are so, so close-minded about it. Like yeah, you drove a Lamborghini into my driveway, but I don't like the color.
It's just this fixation on negativity and what's wrong and what it can't do instead of being amazed and blown away by what it can. And I guess that's just the personality difference between me and people that are like that. I am always looking at the glass half-full and I'm always looking at what's exciting. Now, I never bought a single NFT, right? Just to be clear. So I get that we, in technology, we have these hype cycles and it can get a little exhausting and you're like rolling your eyes at the latest hype cycle and people in your Twitter timeline in all capital letters talking about how this changes everything and is game changing. But I think in this case, it's actually pretty freaking amazing that we have this technology. Okay, I'll stop ranting.
Thorsten: It's funny that you mentioned natural language processing because I come from the other side of the fence. I studied philosophy and I studied philosophy of language. Then when ChatGPT came out, everybody was saying that it doesn't "understand." And I was sitting there thinking: what does "understanding" even mean? How do you understand things? What is meaning? So, I was on the other side of the fence, also thinking that things aren't that easy and that this is super fascinating.

Thorsten interviews co-founders Nathan, Max, Antonio about their path to AI, how they use it, how it's implemented in AI, what will change about it, and what that could mean for the future of programming.
So it turns out the people behind Zed are insufferable AI bros...
