its a simplification of immutability and its consequences

maybe not direct automation, but ask-respond loop of your HA data. How are you optimizing your electricity, heating/cooling with respect to local rates, etc

Two things.

1. Shareholders are entrusting the CEO with their money to turn it into more money. Networking can absolutely be worth that much. Especially at the start up stage, the CEO is selling the ability to build the money maker, which requires knowing the right people. 2. In your hypothetical, who is deciding these high level "investments" into the company? who is accountable for their strategic success or failure?

as part of the prompt, have a test suite with test files. Its still fully automated by the LLM but adds confidence

If it's under the umbrella of LLM automation, then I'd also need to verify that the test suite behavior actually matches the "production" behavior.

sure, but that is less work. you can also have separate LLM QA prompts that assess test suite behavior to production behavior.

ultimately you are right, the buck needs to stop somewhere, but at least in my experience, the more you add quality/test checks as LLM workflows, the higher the rate of success.

10 years from now, the capabilities of gpt5 will be as relevant to AI as Atari is to modern gaming

Unless GPT 5 is more like the PlayStation 5 and not the Atari 2600.

I doubt it. Newer state of the art models might be a little better, but not enough to justify paying $1000/month for the average person or employee.

If you can get a GPT5 level AI, locally and privately, for just the cost of electricity, why would you bother with anything else? If it can’t do something, you’d just outsource that one prompt to a cloud based AI.

The vast majority of your prompts will be passing through a local LLM first in 2035, and you might rarely need to touch an agent API. So what does that mean for the AI industry?

So people will be paying money for the nostalgia of ChatGPT after it dies? That tracks.

Walmart will sell cheap Chinese emulations to hop on the nostalgia train too.

compile time user config checking?

Sorry? That's not possible...

I've seen it plenty of times. safety critical controllers have numeric bounds of stability. why wouldn't you want to encode that into the type

Its not clear to me that it needs to. If at the margins it can still provide an advantage in the market or national defense, then the spice must flow

I suspect it needs to if it is going to cover the costs of training.

because it has millions of examples of that in its training data?

because what can be embedded in billions of parameters is highly unintuitive to common sense and an active area of research. We do it because it works.

One other point, the platonic ideal of reasoning is not even an approximation for human reason. The idea that you take away emotion and you end up with Spock is a fantasy. All neuroscience and psychology research point to the necessary and strong coupling of actions/thoughts with emotions. you don't have a functional system with just logical deduction. At a very basic level it is not functional

Do you have data to back that up? Are you really trying to claim that there is no difference in outcomes from the average or below average graduate and summa cum laude?

Like they said, it depends, but grades alone are not the sole predictor:

Actual study:

That is moving the goal posts. No one claimed it is the sole predictor. The claim was that there is no relation at all. Your own links say their is a predictive relationship. Of course other factors matter, and may even be more important, but with all else equal, grades are positively correlated.
