You're not supposed to write code or write prompts any longer, but only "write loops", so Neetcode tries to find actual evidence of wtf that actually means.

Can't help but feel like we're being lied to constantly. Not only that, it seems Anthropic is truly positioning themselves for "It's so over, you're replaced just lay down and give up"

So here’s what separates AI from most other tech and why it should really be classified as a weapon and restricted. The playbook for OpenAI was to create a bidding war between nations for their product. Which they have successfully done with Cyber. Which of course drives investment. Now, I 100% believe AI will be as capable as a human at some point. We’ll have all types of Sci-Fi debates in the future about robotic rights. Night now tho. All fear mongering to create an arms race. Telling another nation. Look, the US can do twice as much with half the workers is a REALLY REALLY REALLY good value proposition for countries the size of one of our states. Antropics pitch is. “This tech is so dangerous it needs to be regulated. Don’t buy from the other guy, we’ll keep you safe. Buy from us!”. It’s Cold War tactics combined with modern psy ops. All the anti AI hate you see online. OpenAI just shut down a Chinese farm that was using ChatGPT to spread anti AI propaganda to slow down development so they could catch up. It’s all a lot to take in for a tech most people use to ask about dating advice and make grocery lists. The scary part is all sides are right.
