| An llm is a tool, I had access to Claude too but I didn’t find the bug. The author found it. Research taste, among other things are still abilities that differentiate among humans. In fact, I expect the elimination of other limiting factors by AI to lead to those becoming more important. By the same mechanism that make ugly hedge fund managers more performant. The problem then is that composition of the top performers will change. Which is problematic since being a top performer ( ‘artist’, ‘researcher’, ‘writer’,..) is often an identity which ‘we often create to protect ourselves: the strong one who never breaks, the intelligent one who is always certain... The mask that once protected you can eventually become the cage that prevents you from changing’ |

| Shallow dismissals like this contribute nothing to the discussion. |

| You are underestimating how much effort and prior knowledge it takes to work with claude on this kind of thing. |

I agree effort and prior knowledge are required, but a few magic words is like 80% of the effort. | | |

| Perhaps next time they can carve 1's and 0's by hand from a slate tablet. Same old tired complaining about people not using technology correctly, or the way a _real_ coder would do it. |

| I could have overlooked but doesn't seem there is a mention of Claude in the blog post? Did author say they had used Claude? I also am wondering if Claude will proceed on a prompt which is about finding a bug like that? I am not sure, has anyone tried? |

| If he used an old school source code scanner would the credit go to him or to the tool? Because Claude is a tool, not a person. ;) |
