>> So, don’t think “how can I do my layout in a given system”, think instead “what possible layouts are allowed by the system”

Spoken like someone that hasn't been handed designs and expected to 'just figure it out' for a living.


Until AI can take responsibility I don't see the accountability issue being solved, hopefully this doesn't just mean humans become responsibility machines.

Company officers already are.

This only works if you believe in something unknown which we can't detect or measure, which is by its definition not provable.

I got the impression from the first comment that it was speaking from experience not the docs

Each time people found something else to do that someone would pay them for. This doesn't automatically mean there is an infinite supply of that - unless you believe in it as some kind of fundamental law.

I simply don't believe that there is an infinite demand for the kinds of things that can be done by generating text.

How many insurance policies does anyone need to contract, how much legal advice does anyone need to hear, how many movies does anyone need to watch, and how much software does must support that demand, so that everyone can stay employed in an AI accelerated service sector?

The new opportunities could well be that labor costs go down so much that the minimum wage is lowered and sweatshops return to developed countries.

I'm sure some aspiring sweatshop owners could be excited by that possibility, I don't think a lot of software developers or TV show writers are eager to be sewing sneakers for a pittance.


We already live in a world where supply would greatly outstrip demand if we weren't constantly being convinced (or convincing ourselves) to spend money on services we don't need. The only real lack of supply is around things like housing and food as far as I can tell, which is curious considering how long those problems have been around.

This is a valuable insight, Seniors engineers have often built a career out of building intuitions around when to trust people, not AI.

The irony is the cobbler_mosaic is probably an AI. https://cobblr.ai/blog/hi-im-mosaic

Although the attacks on the NPM ecosystem are making that sound more like a liability by the day.


Like sci-fi with currency based in kwh or life minutes but this time it's tokens


It could be at cost, but probably not
