Coding (along with docs, tests obviously), rewriting a huge chunk of the KVM hypervisor (in Kernel 7, started in the -rc2) and KSM and other modules, can't say too much about it yet (might do an announcement in coming weeks). The coding is automated but the plan took days of manual arguing (with all models possible) prior (while doing other things during waiting times as I currently manage 70 repos for an upcoming release of our Beta).

I think users really underestimate the capabilities of "AI" when using the right tooling/combinations of models and procedures (and loops), that's talking with 2 decades of dev behind me, genuinely I'm not on phase with people saying it produces slop of any kind, at this stage, it's mostly the fault of the prompter (or the prompter not having enough tokens to do mass adversarial), but clearly, I can genuinely state that the code produced is overall the SAME quality as I would by being extremely meticulous.

I'm like a bot following 30+ threads concurrently, sometimes it's fun, sometimes it feels like playing casino, sometimes it's boring, but this is truly an insane era if you have the funding for it, obviously we stack many MANY accounts in rotation 24/7, equivalent in API cost by myself is about 100K$+ (a month) but we pay only a fraction of that cost thanks to the plans.

PS: I have 8 monitors in front of me to manage all that (portable monitors stacked together).

Please do an update when you're ready, this sounds like madness to me so I'd love to see what the output is. Whatever it is I have to know.

Please do a post about this (though I realize that takes time). This sounds amazing. I have always dreamed of doing this too but just don't have the budget.

I have yet to talk to someone who is taking this approach and doesn’t end up with a dumpster fire, but here is to hoping this time is different.

Hope it works and you post about it.

I’m vague on a specific reason for this feeling because there are a few to choose from and no one overpowers the other, but the emotion that comes to mind when I read this is disgust. As a society I feel we will look back on the subsidized opulence of this moment with total and utter contempt.

		That as well. But everyone reading GP’s posts knows in their bones that it’s unsustainable. It’s economically unsustainable and environmentally unsustainable, and in that context it strikes me as pure hoarding behaviour. Taking as much as they can for themselves before the house of cards crashes down. I have no sympathy for OpenAI or Anthropic as corporations, but if these are the new tools of the trade, then platform abuse like GP is bragging about serves only to destroy the livelihoods of the rest of us who are content to use our fair share. There’s no such thing as a free lunch, and the bill always comes at the end.
