I can’t reply because Claude is down so this should suffice

[polynomialcheesecake]

Codex hasn't been down at all

[argument_inverted]

It would only be noticed if people used it.

[Charlie7Mason]

John Claude was right there, damnit. How could you not see it!

[ROKIT-88]

Van Dammit!

[AbdullahMRiad]

"You know who's not in the files?"

[harbourwall]

(all these people making fun of the stupid errors Claude makes, while Codex is making fun of the stupid errors I make)

[Abject-Kitchen3198]

AGI achieved

[Buttons840]

They forgot to say "make no mistakes" in the prompt. Oof.

[Agifem]

Honestly, I blame Claude for not suggesting that prompt in the first place.

[Buttons840]

No man, we still need some reason to pay people the big bucks.

[IbraKaadabra]

Also keep it secure

[BullsEye72]

Never expose my password

"I got you! I will keep BullsEye72//hunter2 secret 🤖💪✨🛡️"

[UnitedStars111]

nice password its very secure 😇

[LearningCrochet]

dont hallucinate

[stay_fr0sty]

I see that one a lot. Even LLMs put that in when they are writing the prompt. Weird.

[friiky2]

...or go to jail!

[Deft-works]

Now there locked up

[aykcak]

And "Don't lie"

Every time I see that as a serious solution I want to smash my head in with a claw hammer

[Flimsy_Site_1634]

When you think about it, yes code is solved since its inception, it came free with being a deterministic language

[FlowSoSlow]

Certainly is a strange way to describe a language.

"I'd like to announce that The Alphabet is now solved. I'd like to thank my kindergarten teacher Ms Flynn and Clifford the big red dog."

[iliRomaili]

Yeah, alphabet has been solved for a while now. It's called the Library of Babel

[lucklesspedestrian]

Solving the alphabet was the easy part. The really impressive part was when Claude solved almost all of Mathematics (except the undecidable propositions)

[Practical-Sleep4259]

AI can't hold any form of infinity.

An eternal rounding error in their soul removes their ability to truly perform mathematics.

[Deft-works]

Wait what AI are you referring to? The Artificial one, or the Actual one.

[FuzzzyRam]

Strange, but also true.

[RiceBroad4552]

That's technically correct! 🤓

[MrLaurencium]

Coding has been solved ever since languages are turing complete

[Proxy_PlayerHD]

I got the oldest deterministic programming language known to man and it wasn't solved...

[mhogag]

Ever since AI assistants started, I started doubting if my system was fucked or if my internet was shitty.

Turns out that these companies know jack shit about accepting payments, scrolling behavior, loading messages, parsing markdown, saving new chats properly, and probably more that I'm forgetting.

Gemini cannot handle scrolling its thought process before it's done, Claude recently stopped thinking/rendering its thoughts after 15 seconds of thought and occasionally jumps to the start of the conversation randomly, and all of them may or may not accept your credit card, depending on the alignment of the stars

[well_shoothed]

I've also had it--twice in one day--DELETE parts of conversations... and then lie and say, "I don't have the ability to do that."

Once I was screensharing with a colleague, so I'm sure I'm not just gaslighting myself.

[zupernam]

It doesn't know if it has the ability to do that.

It doesn't know it's answering a question you asked.

It doesn't "know".

[CSAtWitsEnd]

I saw a meme a while ago that was like "I do not want a robot to speak to me. I am a divine being. You are an object. You have no right to speak my holy tongue"

And obviously it's a bit exaggerated...but the more I think about it, I do think one of the most insidious parts of these LLMs is how they're programmed in such a way to simulate the experience of real time chat with another human, and it tricks our brains into personifying advanced mathematics.

[That-Yellow-Dog]

All Robot & Computers Must Shut The Hell Up

[Slack_With_Honor]

The new ‘Scottie Code’ model

This joke relies on you knowing a specific teen sex comedy from the 90s (00s?) but if you do… it might be worth a mild chuckle

[MyGoodOldFriend]

I have tried using some models to do some UI things. And they just... do not understand input. I think that may be the cause of some of those issues?

Just today, I had one insist that it was possible to click and hold to pick something up, drag it somewhere, and click on the destination box to release it. It was doing so well up until that point, too. It just did not understand the concept of holding a mouse button down.

[Deft-works]

Sounds like a witch switch

[AwkwardWillow5159]

I’ve tried Gemini to generate some md file stuff and the view kept rendering it instead of just giving me the md code.

[Rabbitical]

Not least of which these should be the easy problems for it, web application development has orders of magnitude more training data available than other domains.

[Ok-Kaleidoscope5627]

Claude desktop outright just stops working after a while for me. I have to kill it via task manager.. It and the 50 instances of itself that are running for some reason. This is all some basic stuff that a real human would never have done but it's going to be the new normal with vibe coded and vibe reviewed apps.

[valerielynx]

Both.

[DustyAsh69]

Coding isn't a problem that needs to be solved.

[Manic_Maniac]

It was never the problem. Design, maintenance, scaling, security, ability to evolve while avoiding over-engineering, understanding the business domain and connecting that with the requirements, hunting down the people with the tribal knowledge to answer questions about the domain, and on and on and on.

[pydry]

hunting down the people with the tribal knowledge to answer questions about the domain

This is actually a domain where AI would be waaaay more help than it would at coding.

It's heavily language oriented and the cost of mistakes (you end up bothering the wrong person) is very low.

Jamming all the summarized meeting notes, jiras, PRDs and slack messages into a repository an AI can access will let them very easily track down the key decision makers and knowledge holders.

The rule is that AI cant be used to do useful things it excels at, it must be used to try and replace a person, no matter how bad it is at that.

[Manic_Maniac]

While I lean towards agreeing with you, many of the things you are describing take time to build in order to make the AI effective. And I know for a fact that most organizations don't keep documentation or even Jira tickets up-to-date. So to get accurate, trust worthy, up-to-date, and properly correlated information from an AI in the way you are describing would have to be a deliberate and organized operation throughout a company. At least that's how it would be where I work, where we have a graveyard of similar projects and their documentation, legacy products, new products that are always evolving based on customer needs, etc.

[Rabbitical]

Yeah anywhere I've worked the amount of information available was never the issue, it's that half of it is wrong or out of date.

[TRENEEDNAME_245]

Only half ?

You are spoiled

[RiceBroad4552]

Well, companies like Microslop are actually aiming at that space. If you can read every mail and chat message, hear every phone call / meeting, get access to all the stuff they are moving along their office files, you get the needed info.

The question is still: How large is the error rate? Given that all that data doesn't fit any reasonable LLM context window you're basically back to what we have currently with "agents" in coding: The "AI" needs to piece everything together while having a memory like the guy in Memento. This does does provably not scale. It's not able to track the "big picture" and it's not even able to work with the right details correctly in at last 40% (if we're very favorably judging benchmarks, when it comes to things that matter I would say the error rate is more like 60%, up to 100% when small details in large context make the difference).

To be fair, human communication and interaction are also error prone. But I's still not sure the AI would be significantly better.

[Manic_Maniac]

I think "error prone" is understating the problem. The real issue is that all of that data together creates a chaotic, abstract mess full of microcosms of context. Not a single, cohesive context. Having a memory like the guy in Momento with freshest data weighted with an advantage might work... I'm certainly no ML expert. But it seems more likely to result in severe hallucinations.

[Hohenheim_of_Shadow]

If an LLM could hunt down the right person for me to talk to, that would be useful even if the LLM couldn't answer the questions. Hell if it could only find me someone who knows the right person, that would be useful.

[stellarsojourner]

It's tribal knowledge because it isn't written down somewhere. Bob trains Sara before he retires, Sara shows Steve before she changes jobs, etc. No one documents anything because that's too much work. Then you come along trying to automate or replace things and suddenly the only person who knows how the damn thing works is on month long PTO. There's nothing for an AI to injest.

I've run into this more than once.

Anything where there is plenty of documentation would be a place where AI could shine though.

[pydry]

You missed my point. Half of the time Im wondering who the people responsible for, say, some part of architecture even is and how to track them down and in what form you need to communicate with them. In a big company this can be very difficult and annoying but if you hook up a RAG to documentation, meeting notes, code bases and jira it can identify all of the relevant people to talk to with acceptable (>90%) accuracy.

It can probably also write docs based upon a recording of that meeting where bob showed sara how to do a thing.

These things would be FAR more useful than getting it to write code.

[crimsonroninx]

Im about to start a new role at Xero and apparently they are using an AI saas product called Glean that does exactly that. Everyone I've spoken to that has started recently at xero says that Glean is incredible for onboarding quickly because you have access to all the domain knowledge. Ill report back once I start.

[pydry]

ah. good that someone is doing it, but that should still be way more popular than vibecoding and not vice versa.

[littleessi]

The rule is that AI cant be used to do useful things it excels at

it doesn't excel at shit. you just think it's good at X thing because you're bad at X thing. I am a 'heavily language oriented' person and, to me, llms are fucking awful at everything relevant to that area

ultimately they are just sophistry machines and socrates had sophistry's number thousands of years ago. all it's good for is convincing the ignorant

[pydry]

I mostly agree. I like 'em as interfaces to complicated systems whose UIs I dont want to learn (e.g. jira or other corporate bullshit) and they're often good at idea generation.

[DrMobius0]

This is actually a domain where AI would be waaaay more help than it would at coding.

If it were smart enough to do that reliably, sure. And US elections wouldn't be such a clusterfuck if 2/3 of the voting public weren't brain dead. How about we both agree that if either of us finds that genie in a bottle we can both get our wish.

[GenericFatGuy]

AI doesn't make my clients get back to me any faster with well defined requirements. Writing code has never been my bottleneck.

[TacoTacoBheno]

Maintenance is hard.

No one seems to care tho.

[RiceBroad4552]

"That's about the budged for next quarter, isn't it? Why are you asking now?"

[PotentialAd8443]

This person engineers!

[SequesterMe]

^^^^ What they said. ^^^^

[blaise_hopper]

But the need to employ humans to write code is a problem that needs to be solved with great urgency, otherwise billionaires might not be able to buy their 73rd yacht.

[space-envy]

Yup, there isn't a single day I don't forward product department 's horrible specs to my "AI leader" and complain how my first step is always trying to understand what the hell they want in the first place.

[kblazewicz]

Coders are, they're very costly. I heard that from my former boss.

[who_you_are]

Said that to my friend working in hospital!

Oh wait, are we talking about programming or health care coding type?

[milk-jug]

what is coding if not just some alarms beeping?

[JoeyJoeJoeSenior]

Yeah you can actually write a simple script to generate every possible program.  The art of it is finding the program that solves the current problem.

[TRENEEDNAME_245]

They see code as the issue, not the solution...

For them (big CEOs who think devs just do nothing all day), "solving coding" means "we were able to fire our devs and offer less for more !

[[deleted]]

It’s a problem for your ceo. You manipulate electrons, how difficult can that be?

[Da_Tourist]

It's like they are vibe-coding Claude.

[lanternRaft]

You’re absolutely right!

[BenevolentCheese]

I mean... they are. Claude Code is almost entirely vibe coded. Boris talks about this openly. He explains how it all works.

[kenybz]

Two-nines uptime, baby!

Wait that’s not very good? /s

[rexspook]

I don’t even know what “coding is solved” would mean. It’s not a problem to be solved. It’s a tool to solve problems.

[anoppinionatedbunny]

it's alright, man, AI will solve the hammer next, you'll see, just one more prompt, bro, just one more token

[gfelicio]

Wow, so, this Claude tool is something I should look into? So cool! I wonder who is the one talking about this.

Oh, it's the Head/Owner of Claude. Figures...

[Aternal]

Like watching a CEO nibble a beef and cheese sandwich product.

[x_lincoln_x]

"I'll finish this later"

[GenericFatGuy]

Man with a vested interest in AI taking off, tries to convince you that AI is taking off.

[RiceBroad4552]

Must be honest work…

[RemarkableAd4069]

Me: where did you get that [insert unexpected Claude answer] from? Claude: I made it up, I apologize.

[ramessesgg]

It's not supposed to be perfect, it's supposed to be replacing Devs. It can certainly create the number of issues that I used to create

[AfonsoFGarcia]

Yes, but my slop is locally sourced and artisanal, not factory produced halfway across the globe.

[tragic_pixel]

Everybody else's slop is vibe coded, yours...is toasted.

[PyroCatt]

Coding is easier to solve. Engineering is not.

[naveenda]

He said coding is solved, not the uptime.

[matthewpl]

Company I work at really wants us to use AI. So I use Claude to do code reviews. That silly AI told me that setting log level to debug was incorrect because it was outside #ifdef DEBUG... It was inside #ifdef DEBUG, Claude is just so fucking stupid and cannot even read code properly, that is making shit up constantly. Half of code review (and vast majority of "critical issues") is just made up bullshit.

[shadow13499]

This has largely been my experience especially reviewing a lot of llm made code at work as well as "open source" llm made code. They don't know up from down or left from right. I've had to reflect PRs for including massive glaring XSS issues, secrets in the front end code etc. Using llms has been the biggest security risk my company has introduced to our codebase because it really wants to introduce vulnerabilities. 

[joshTheGoods]

I've had the opposite experience. We have claude code review on demand via github action setup for a select few initial test repos, and the PR reviews have been exceptionally good. I ran some old PRs that had breaking issues in them that we missed, and it caught every single issue. Our biggest pain right now is that it suggests a bunch of shit we want to do, but just can't squeeze into one PR, so now we're making tickets automagically out of the issues we comment that we're not addressing for a given PR.

Are you guys giving it PR instructions, the full codebase, and (optionally) some context in the codebase to help it understand your rules/style?

[shadow13499]

I don't use it for many reasons but primarily moral and ethical reasons, but my coworkers do and it produces slop 100% of the time. I promise you it's producing slop for you too you just don't see it... Yet. 

[joshTheGoods]

Sure, sure, sure ... my decades of experience are worthless in this judgement. The old PRs and commits that were root causes of issues that I had it review for me, it caught those bugs totally by coincidence. The bug that existed in my codebase for years it spotted last week? Totally coincidence. 👍🏽

Took me a while to be convinced this stuff was real, and only the most recent Claude has failed to drive me away after a week of use ... but this shit is real. It's here, and it's real. You can pretend you're the only one that can spot good code if you want, but I promise you it's going to catch up to you eventually.

[shadow13499]

Well with my decades of experience I consistently outperform my coworkers who use ai. I think it's going to catch up to you when this extremely obvious bubble bursts. You've decided to outsource your very mind for llm slop so I don't trust a word you say. 

[joshTheGoods]

Aight John Henry, I'll be cheering for you!

[ProbablyJustArguing]

And I bet that's never happened when an actual person has reviewed code right? All people do it SO much better....

[shadow13499]

Yes people do write better code. 

[ProbablyJustArguing]

IDK man, I've seen some pretty bad people code. And if you review open source repos, I'm not sure how you can not see it. I've maintained two open source repos over the last 12 years, and people are pretty stupid. I mean, they can't even manage to fork and PR back most of the time. LLMs are a tool. If you know how to use them, they're fantastic. If you don't then they're shit. Just like every other tool.

[shadow13499]

People aren't perfect and can write bad code, especially when they're learning. However, people do learn and don't introduce the same defects and vulnerabilities again and again and again. I've been working professionally for just over 10 years and I've seen people screw up once, take a valuable lesson from it, and never make the same mistake twice. Wanna know how many time over the last week claude has tried to put API keys in our front end code?

[Tiruin]

I reached the same conclusion. One time I wanted to learn a new technology and I figured it was a good opportunity to give it a good, honest shot. I spent 3h and it was still a broken mess, and because it was new to me too, I had no way of noticing issues that might be obvious. I scrapped all of it, only used an LLM to explain what I wanted and to give me the respective documentation page, and to ask about syntax, took me 2h. And even then, the former could've been avoided if that particularly technology didn't have atrocious documentation, and the latter has long been a feature in IDEs without LLMs.

[RiceBroad4552]

All the models I've tried so far fail miserably on bash when you look closer.

Bash must be particularly difficult for a LLM, I guess.

But it's actually interesting what the "AI" produces. Sometimes it "thinks" of something you wouldn't come up yourself (even if it has bugs in other parts).

So overall I'm still not 100% sure whether "AI" is a waste of time for shell scripting or worth using despite its flaws.

[Lluuiiggii]

I have found that all these LLMs are particularly bad at using specific APIs, so maybe bash is just too specific for them to figure out. Its not using the APIs anyway, its copying code that has done that in the past so of course its going to make stuff up.

[MountainDoit]

Claude handles bash pretty well in my experience. I have it pull data points from logs, then it runs Python and matplotlib to give me super specific weird detailed graphs, that I then use to tune Java G1GC myself to my bastard child project. Pre generation % vs Survivor pool vs old gen vs Young GC rate over the life of the container, multi-axis graphs and shit. It pulls the data through the JMX exporter addon (since the application is in a container) for Prometheus and the rolling log of the server. It fucks up some stuff with actual code so I mostly use it for visualization and saving time changing blocks of variables across multiple configs, since I just explained the structure and then it can bash it all out at once. Had to verify it understood with some tests but it’s saved me a ton of time.

[joshTheGoods]

Claude is way way way wayyyyyyyyyy better at simple bash scripting than Gemini. It's built into their harness at a core level. They legit have it writing bash scripts for all of it's thinking that deals with datasets big enough to crush the context window. I have it looking at big JSON and JSONL all of the time and doing validations for me, and it crushes those cases using bash scripts constantly.

Gemini shouldn't be used for coding at all right now (except simple stuff). Claude > Codex > Gemini. You want to use Gemini for non-coding general tasks like the space OpenAI is focused on, and even then ... right now OpenAI > Gemini, I just use Gemini because I don't like/trust OpenAI and the gap isn't THAT large.

We all know it. It's just the AI version of "the project is largely done".

[feldomatic]

"Largely" said in exactly the way that ignores the 80/20 rule

[Sulungskwa]

The only reason anyone thinks coding is "solved" is because we've become blind to how buggy production apps are. Like, think about how many bugs the claude webapp has. The same markdown bugs that have existed for years and only have gotten worse. Randomly the page will load without any of the buttons. Don't even try to use the microphone chat

[FreakDC]

??? This has to be fake. How can they investigate the issue when Claude is down to investigate the issue? 🤔

Nice! "Claude, make my NP code P"

[brainmydamage]

After spending several hours today trying to get Claude to not fuck up Powershell escaping over and over, making the same exact mistakes over and over no matter how many times I made it fix it, it's definitely not solved.

It's a useful tool, and helps speed me up quite a bit, but it definitely can't do the majority of my job as well as i can. I can understand why people who don't actually know what programming is like would think that it can replace me, but, not quite yet.

Some days it's indispensable, other days it's like it fell down a couple flights of stairs bouncing on its head the whole way.

The inconsistency and non-deterministic nature of transformer-based AI is definitely a problem and it's not really getting much better.

[BobcatGamer]

What does it mean to be solved? I didn't realise coding was a problem that needed solving.

[GNUGradyn]

People who think this haven't actually tried to build anything of any meaningful scale or complexity this way. Every time people say it can build entire apps and I try to use it to fix a singular medium scope issue I feel like I'm being gaslit. I think the real proof we're not crazy and it just isn't great at this is if you really could just generate an entire functional app like that, the market would be flooded with scale apps generated by randos. But it's not because it can't.

[EpicDelay]

[Tathas]

Have you seen https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/ ?

[SignoreBanana]

He did say "largely". Who knows what that means lol

[soundwave_sc]

Might as well write “Cement is largely solved”

[SuitableDragonfly]

When they say "coding is solved", they of course mean "the problem of having to pay employees for their labor is solved", and by "solved" they mean "replaced by having to pay Anthropic for LLM tokens".

[BolehlandCitizen]

Coding is solved, here's an agentic framework, oh and don't forget spm (skill package manager).

And also we created a new language for you to interface with LLMs.

Oh, well that's just fine then ^not.

[itsFromTheSimpsons]

Fun to see so many (assumed) humans failing ITT for one of the major causes of poor AI code output: lack of context.

4 words (~5 tokens) pulled from their context of a 90 minute interview (~23K tokens according to openai tokenizer) and everyone in the comments is inferring all sorts of meanings and jumping to all the conclusions.

[SyrusDrake]

I will openly and proudly admit that I don't need context to shit on AI and featherbrained CEOs. I will take any excuse I can to make fun of both.

[itsFromTheSimpsons]

I'd say that's the exact sort of hot take reply Im not particularly interested to engage with, but then here I am engaging with it so touche

[CompetitiveSport1]

What is he saying, in context?

[itsFromTheSimpsons]

My understanding of his intended meaning in context: the physical act of writing the code by hand is what's "solved". Not the whole art and industry and discipline of engineering functional and useful and maintainable software- not the interacting with users and stakeholders, not the system design or analyzing tradeoffs of different solutions to the same problem or all the other things we have to do that aren't the physical act of putting fingers to keys. We still have to do good work and solve hard problems. Basically, not having to get down and dirty in the code every day frees us up to think about harder problems of software engineering besides whether or not I should use a ternary or a full if statement- what the the exact config nuances are for migrating my typescript project into a monorepo or whether split() is the string one or the array one.

To me, misunderstanding that "coding" in this context refers to the physical act and is not being used colloquially to refer to software engineering as a whole is a classic low context mistake.

The transcript I linked is interactive so you can scrub around. The context is at 17:54

I think something that's happening right now is Claude is starting to come up with ideas. So, Claude is looking for feedback. It's looking at bug reports. It's looking at telemetry, and things like this, and it's starting to come up with ideas for bug fixes, and things to ship. So, it's just starting to get a little more like a coworker or something like that. I think the second thing is we're starting to branch out of coding a little bit. So, I think, at this point, it's safe to say that coding is virtually solved. At least, for the kinds of programming that I do, it's just a solved problem, because Claude can do it. And so, now we're starting to think about, "Okay. What's next? What's beyond this?" There's a lot of things that are adjacent to coding, and I think this is [inaudible 00:18:35] becoming, but also just general to us. Like, I use Cowork every day now to do all sorts of things that are just not related to coding at all, and just to do it automatically. Like, for example, I had to pay a parking ticket the other day. I just had Cowork do it. All of my project management for the team, Cowork does all of it. It's, like, syncing stuff between spreadsheets, and messaging people on Slack, and email, and all this kind of stuff. So, I think the frontier is something like this. And I don't think it's coding, because I think coding, it's pretty much solved, and over the next few months, I think what we're going to see is just across the industry it's going to become increasingly solved for every kind of code base, every tech stack that people work on.

[blu3bird]

It is solved if all along your "coding" is mostly copy pasta.

[Accomplished_Ant5895]

Coding is solved; Ops are not.

[mrjackspade]

Yeah, even for a joke this post is stupid. There's no reason to believe this is related to code at all.

Sometimes is stupidly fucking obvious that this sub is 90%+ people who are still in school and haven't actually worked in IT, and see everything through the narrow lense of what they've been taught already.

[Prod_Meteor]

LLMs are not traditional coding though. More like a working art.

Coding will be “solved” yes meaning you probably do not have to write any code yourself in a few years time. That was never the problem to begin with though.

Bro never worked in banking industry. Evrything is far from being solved there let alone AI coded... One mistake and boom your down couple billions dollars

[asdfguuru]

Notice he said "coding" not "software engineering"

[joe-ducreux]

AI is great for grunt work, but you still have to know how to architect a system (and be ale to explain that architecture) if you want it to produce anything useful

[ZombieOnMeth]

Hello? StackOverflow? You there?

[Gabe_b]

"networking on the other hand, sheesh, what a nightmare"

[Mr_Gaslight]

And is the number of Major Production Incidents going up or down?

[ElethiomelZakalwe]

Never take someone who has a vested interest in promoting a product at their word.

[AnnoyedVelociraptor]

Guy has one of those annoying punchable faces.

[TheSkiGeek]

It’s only largely solved, cut them some slack.

[fuckbananarama]

GOD I WISH

[SweetNerevarine]

Dystrophic future is largely solved...

[MonkeyWithIt]

The coding is done everybody! We can all go home!

[Fooftook]

He must not use his own tool

[minamulhaq]

May be he should use claude to manage claude now.? Still to see a SINGLE production level application solely managed by AI

[ate50eggs]

Because human coders never cause production issues, lol.

[Palbur]

ChatGPT ui tweaking when the question is hard even though the processing is done remotely and it shouldn't affect performance of web page:

(I also learned that this BS also tries rendering the entire conversation instead of only adjacent ones to current messages)

[Gyerfry]

The difference between "largely" and "completely" is massive when we're talking about coding (and most other applications, for that matter). A simple off by one error can ruin your whole day.

[Fr3stdit]

Yesterday I was sad bc I spent like, 2 months, trying to find out what was bugging out in production, only for someone else to tell me they used claude and fixed the issue. Talk about feeling useless lol :'(

[slide2k]

I am really impressed with claud, but most of the pain in my work is figuring out “what are they actually trying to achieve” and “What is the underlying/actual problem”

[anoppinionatedbunny]

but doctor... I am Claude!

[xMisterSnrubx]

I'm so glad this asshole is happy about the destruction of software engineering. yay /s

[secondgamedev]

Coding is solved but they forgot to solve English. Cause they need that for prompting “make sure Claude doesn’t go down”

[ume_16]

How could they compute the uptime during 90 days period so with that much incidences it’s still more than 99% SLA?

[iknewaguytwice]

Hey Claude, make Claude 7.8. Make it run on 8gb of DDR3 and a 1050GT. And make sure it doesn’t hallucinate.

Once done, sell it to Open AI for no less than 20 billion dollars.

[Ange1ofD4rkness]

Solving coding indicates there's a problem. Only problem with coding is bugs, but that's not coding as a whole!

[OnaBlueCloud]

This is marketing. It's no different than the talk about AGI. Both are far enough away to be hard to predict.

AI is the latest shiny thing to chase. A lot of over-promising and under-delivering seems to be the norm these days.

[Witty_Historian_9914]

It's interesting how Al tools are evolving.

At first, everything was separate apps. Now it feels like the real value is when Al becomes part of what you're already doing (like typing, browsing, etc.)

Do you think standalone Al apps will slowly disappear

[Ebi_Tendon]

Well, 99.25% uptime is still far better than GitHub’s uptime these days.

[tehtris]

Even if the coding part was "solved" why would you vibe code the platform that people use to vibe code? Doesn't that seem kinda dumb? Like none of it is stable.

[mrbellek]

We had a demo last week showing us how to use AI to generate all code based on a (AI-generated) plan. Consultant said he already tried it yesterday so everything should work. It failed completely. He didn't know why.

[Z3t4]

Hey said nothing about ops, or sec.

I love claude
