| 8 months ago I asked this question, I will ask again: Where are your browsers?
Where are your compilers?
Where are your databases?
Where are your operating systems? Can you point me to literally anything useful that works and was created by this world changing technology? All I see is dead project after dead project. |

| If you take them at their word, the people working on the current browsers, compilers and databases are all using it Google self reports 70% ai usage in code, bun was fully ai rewritten to be rust |

| ▲ | hatefulheart 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Let’s not forget we are talking about a world changing technology here. So when you tell me “some people working on some projects are using it”, I’ll pretend you didn’t say “all” because that’s untrue, you haven’t asked all of them, and the company that got bought out by Anthropic did their “rewrite-in-rust” meme, do you think it’s unreasonable to incredulous? | | |
| ▲ | siwakotisaurav 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Now the goalpost is “all” of code? I don’t think anything I say is likely to change your mind. You might need to get through this valley of depression by yourself in a few years and join the rest of devs using ai | | |
| ▲ | hatefulheart 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Your reading comprehension is awful. You said “all” as in “all” developers on those projects. You haven’t spoken to all of them to make that claim. You’re just making stuff up. That’s what I was pointing out. If you are suggesting that we can call the Chromium project a work of LLMs because some developers may or may not be using LLMs on the project it let’s just stop the conversation right here. This is becoming a classic case of LLM brain rot. I hope you come back to your senses. | |

Is it something you aim for, or is it just the natural way of communication for people excited by a new technology, patricianly one they feel gives them some kind of insider advantage or hidden knowledge? |

| How long did it take from the first DBMS to get to Postgres? The first OS to get to Linux? The first compiler to get to LLVM? For Postgres and Linux and LLVM to become mature enough to hold the revered reputation they have now? The jury's still out on AI, but coding agents have only really worked for about 6 months now. It's not exactly a fair statement to make. Obviously good things take time and thought. And understanding the full implications of technological advancement also takes time and thought. |

| AI isn't re-creating the world, it's augmenting it. The death of Stack Overflow being a visible indiction: https://data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/1926661#g... |
