Coding with LLMs (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex) is often presented as the ‘killer app’ for Generative AI. But looking at data, it seems the one piece of the puzzle missing is actual cost. …
I’m still pretty new to Lemmy and the fediverse although I really enjoy it. I’ve noticed some strong dislike of anything and everything AI to the point I think it’s clouding some peoples ability to really see the situation at hand. That said I get a lot of people skepticism, a lot of AI projects are nonsense and things have been over promised. On top of that there’s the more than problematic issue of data centers and the environment. I think people don’t fully grasp how insane some of the achievements of neural nets are, how fast it’s developing, that having models that pretty much pass the Turing test was pure sci-fi just a few years ago, much less are solving legitimate mathematical conjectures as well as other hard problems in science.
