@jasongorman.bsky.social I subscribe to everything you wrote, I have issues with the conclusion. The idea of a "human in the loop" is not going to hold. Making sure that generated content (in whatever form) is valid is a tedious tasks and humans are not built for this. 🧵
The eyepopping valuations of "AI" companies are built on what these models might be capable of "soon".
But what can physics tell us about the limits of this technology, and therefore its likely future?

I do not fear the rise of superintelligence.
I do, however, fear the rise of billionaires, organizations, and world powers who seek to use computing to maximize their power, influence, and control.

The market saw “AI + insurance” and reacted. Shares in Mony Group dropped after Insurify launched its new OpenAI powered comparison app.
I used to work at Mony Group (MoneySupermarket), so I know this domain well. I installed the app and ran through a car insurance scenario.

There's a marginal increase in the overall software delivery stream if we produce features faster than we can validate them in production. Not only will it create a bottleneck, but also introduce more risks (potential bugs, higher churn) if we increase the batch size.

The pain of troubleshooting big batches serves as a corrective (balancing) feedback loop to reduce batch size. GenAI weakens this feedback loop by making troubleshooting big batches less painful.

Normally, I wouldn't hoist a post like this 👇 to the top level, but this is a great example of someone who can be easily replaced by Claude Code. When a machine can write the code for you, other factors become more important. Just sayin'.
I give no fucks about your compney "culture" your values or you personaly. I offer skills you offer a job that needs to be filled. Im not there to make freinds, not there to "be part of the family" i am there to WORK. then i GO HOME and never do those things mix.
