first thing is, general start with a baseline naive model to get a feel for how much a complex model might add ... better features and understanding of the business beats better math

this is a bit backwards, but when you have a lot of optimism people borrow a lot and invest a lot , which has a multiplier effect on the economy and drives prices and maybe interest rates up depending on policy and expectations. then if returns disappoint multiplier runs in reverse in a big bust

Tough but fair: Why would anyone want a humanoid robot? I think better robot vacuums, static appliances, ability to talk to realistic human avatars on a screen for 10 years at least before widespread humanoid robots.

AI coding might reduce code re-use, increase technical debt. Why look up a function you already wrote, or make sure it supports all use cases, when it's so easy to ask the AI to write a code to do exactly what you want? www.gitclear.com/ai_assistant...

This makes it sounds like someone was making a Llama-based tool to identify China-unfriendly social media posts, used OpenAI to debug the code, and OpenAI banned them because of the code they were writing to use Llama, as opposed to abusing OpenAI.

Rumor that OpenAI is gearing up for GPT-5 around the time of Microsoft's May Build conference, which lines up with Sam Altman's 'months' comment (vs GPT-4.5 in 'weeks')

I haven't done a hard target search but it does seem challenging to run DeepSeek R1 'on-prem' in cloud, need the platform that takes an open source model and wraps it into a REST API with autoscaling, observability/logging/monitoring, maybe charging back or throttling internal users

Is AI making devs dumber? You can treat it like hiring a great intern/pair programmer to help you learn, or turn yourself into a pointy-haired boss throwing spaghetti at the wall and letting AI figure it out.
