| This "how to prompt" shit changes like every 3 months. Remember when earlier this year it was critical to tell Claude to keep going because it would just give up. It's amazing this is really considered a product - imagine having to relearn how to drive your car every 3 months. |

| Remember how we were going to be "left behind" if we didn't "keep up"? I'm so glad I haven't wasted any time or effort learning how to kick each month's flavour of idiot assistant. |

| > imagine having to relearn how to drive your car every 3 months Cars were just like that during their early years, with tillers and knobs. See the video where Top Gear finds the first car with controls we recognize https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkwGJzU5B-I |

| Did you know you can get certification from Anthropic? And it actually costs real money. |

| Yeah. It is not so much like a "coding assistant", but more like a temp agency sending you different autists every other month. Edit: Someone commented that this is insulting to autists, and I guess it kind of is - sorry. What I ment was an intellectual; one that can be an absolute retard, but have read an aweful lot. |

| You don't have to use a car. You can stay on your horse. It's perfectly usable. Don't fall for the hype. |

| Not sure how you missed that but models are fundamentally changing in features, scope, intelligence, pricing, communication style. Of course it changes every 3 months. Of course there is no product that lasts more than 3 months. We're in a race right now. It won't stop changing for a while. |

| ▲ | mathisfun123 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | For the third and final time: consider the analogy about cars. | | |
| ▲ | r_lee an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | that's not a useful analogy, it's not like these models are CPUs where the cores just get increase in core count or clock speeds they fundamentally change, architecture, the way they're trained etc. | |
| ▲ | dagss 3 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | ...and cars also changed very rapidly during early years, not to mention how often they would break down and how they basically required the user to be a mechanic to repair them on the spot for many years. So the analogy isn't all that good is it? You are comparing immature tech with very mature tech. What technology emerged into the market fully finished? If your point is "don't use technology until it is mature" then you are of course free to not use it for now. | | |

| ▲ | UrineSqueegee 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | the analogy is asinine since they are not even remotely the same thing. Also cars change rapidly too, maybe thats the only thing they have in common lol. Have you gone from one maker to the other? everything is different, even how you set the gears. | |

| All this overhyped crap will explode and most of us will be poor but hey whatever. Some billionaires will be better off. That should make us all content |
