GLM blows a big hole in my thesis that the Chinese have a catastrophic disadvantage in high-quality data. It's too close to Opus. They did this without spending billions. I don't know how. Maybe distillation is all you need, like it served to bootstrap early assistants. Wild.

I don't know who needs to hear this but someone recently told me "no amount of waiting will make you more brave, and no amount of worrying will make it more safe." And honestly I think about this everyday.

Most software engineers are facing an identity crisis bordering on depression. As CTOs aggressively evangelize tokenmaxxing, a class divide ensues. The lazy. The lazy push code. They don't write it. They don't manually test it. They don't even read it. They're on autopilot. See Jira ticket, prompt for task, submit code. Many of them are barely on their computer the whole day. A comment on the PR asking why they did this? The lazy ask AI. A Slack message? The lazy ask AI. Need to prepare for standup? The lazy ask AI. As long as it sounds enough like them and isn't detected. Some of the lazy are even overemployed, and work multiple jobs. The lazy smart ones get away with this, and even rewarded. After all, software engineering for the lazy is just a dance to convince your colleagues you're smart and hard working. The craftsmen. The craftsmen are tired. Very tired. 15 PRs in queue. Slack blowing up. The entire burden of review falls on the craftsman. The burden of understanding. They try. They work their way through the code, thoughtfully commenting to improve what ships. The response? A lazy: "That's a clever idea! You're absolutely right." with an incorrect change. It's fine, the craftsman says. I can fix them. They write a doc urging his colleagues to be better. The next day? 20,000 line PR to review. Day after day, their workload grows. Bugs seep into production. No one seems to care. Another round of AI is thrown at it. Their animosity to their colleagues rises. Eventually, they give up. It's just not what it used to be. The craft they loved is dead. They eventually wake up, a lazy. This isn't all companies. Many companies are genuinely more productive, adopt the right set of principles and practices around AI development and have highly talented teams that trust each other. It tends to happen in bigger companies that are 10+yrs old with a higher talent variance. But it happens. A lot.

it’s funny that ppl calculate sending their kids to school for x years at $50k per year or whatever when the entire education system is likely going to change drastically in the next few years. i suspect the cost of education will likely go down significantly too & it’s likely unclear whether or not to even send your kids to a school. what even is education now is prolly a good question to start with.

If a founder can build an MVP in 3 days with AI for $200. Why would they pay a developer and designer $25,000 and wait 2 months? What's the argument?
