Is Darth Vader at the hearing?

Who's doing all that heavy breathing?

Tech Lead, we've had your typical automation, CI/CD, some AWS stuff; not bleeding edge but not stone age either.

We have gone all in on AI with Claude and Claude Code and building a process around how and when to use it, which tools to use where, how to set up the markdown files depending on who you are, etc...

It has sped things up on greenfield projects for sure. It helps on existing ones as well, but it'll send you on a wild goose chase if you're not careful.

There is definite pressure and the fear of missing out is well known.

My biggest issue is that it still has that sycophantic "personality" and tends to tell you what it thinks you want an answer to be and you have to badger it like a police detective to make sure it's not bullshitting - sorry, hallucinating, although instructions/skills can mitigate that to a point.

It's not fun when someone throws pages of an AI analysis and I have to say why it's wrong. I try to explain the context that is missing, but I feel like I'm doing that more often lately.

Call me Meatloaf, because 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

I know it isn't coming up today, but I find it hard to believe that they won't try to get it out before the session ends.

I may have not caught it, but I heard him say "we're not doing a 6-0 map." I didn't hear anything about an agreement.

Kleinpeter earned his money today.

It's plain as day she's trying to distract from Morris's testimony.

He's doing well, especially considering all the BS cheap shots from the democrats.

An actual post on reddit:

My mom told me that back in the day kids weren’t allowed to bring a water bottle with them into the classroom and they only drank a few sips from the water fountain in the middle of the day and that’s it How were schools not getting busted for child abuse for forcing kids to be dehydrated?

I want to believe it's a troll, but I don't think it is.

This seems way too on the nose and fake as hell.

I mean, come on:

You really think [management]... want some Brown boy Indian leading Originations?... If you don’t f**k my brains out tonight, I’m going to sabotage your promotion.’

‘Birthday BJ for the brown boy? My little brown boy.’

This guy said, Claude/ChatGPT, come up with the most cringeworthy Reddit story you can and apply it to this JPMorgan chick.

quote:

I'm seeing it in real time. In 6 months it will be exponentially better. And 6 months from then exponentially better.

Everyone says this the first time they use Claude.

The exponential capabilities have been promised since 2023, yet I still have to redirect it to do what I would have done quite often, slightly faster once in a while.

The whole conductor pattern (agents talking to agents) doesn't seem like it's panning out like they thought and prices seem to only be going up. It ain't gonna be $20 a month forever.

It has become quite obvious how many people just farm out their work to an AI, to the point that AI and LLMs have become a quasi-religion: if you question the results, you were prompting it wrong.
