Ai

This week I was working on one non-critical feature that seemed simple at first sight. 50k lines of code later, it seemed to work as expected. In a side project, or a service where “nobody will be upset if it’s dead and kills everything around”, it would be ready to ship. But for a production-grade project, the risk of an outage is too big to skip reading the code.

The peak of hype isn’t the best moment to reflect on AI. Will it take your job, or is it the next fad like NFTs? Are AI startups ridiculously overvalued, or are the companies that sleep on AI doomed? Time will tell. LLMs are far from perfect, but I’m excited they’re here anyway. Not because of a silly promise to make me 10x more productive, but because they can solve some problems that were previously unsolvable.
