alt Hacker NewsAll the emotion of speculations aside, how it runs? It boots faster yeah, but what about RAM and CPU usage? Weird dead loop or dead locks?
If it run as good as before or even better, then that's kinda impressive.
I'm a developer so I really don't like it when AI might took my job, but if everyone on this planet could create a software for themselves exactly as how they wanted with just a few simple demands, that will change the world for the better.
Think of it as a democratization of technology. You don't want Microsoft stealing your data? Just ask a AI to write an OS for you. You don't want Google to listen to what you're saying? Just ask a AI to design a phone for you. If one day the AI ended up doing that, it will be the ultimate technology self-sufficient. In front of that, your job security is insignificant.
It is also why keeping the tech open source is that much important. Otherwise, it's still the same old shit again and again, and, you lose your job too.

Incredibly naive take when these models are closed behind (for now subsidized) paywalls.
This "democratization" argument is so nauseating, seems like the Bun port to Rust as a marketing piece (the primary motivator) sold it well!
A good tool, in the hands of a skilled craftsman gets great results.
The same tool, in the hands of someone that doesn't know how to handle it? I'll let you finish that
Basically, a good developer can handle the tool better by asking the proper questions, setting good guardrails and tweaking the output where needed
> I'm a developer
Then you must know that the hardest part of software development is getting clear requirements...
> everyone on this planet could create a software for themselves exactly as how they wanted
Even with perfect AGI this will never happen because people will never be able to express clear requirements
